Solar Messenger Bag
What it is: A messenger bag that powers all your electronics by drawing energy from the sun.
Why we love it: Since Surprise.com is situated smack-dab in the middle of the Silicon Valley, it's no shock that we're constantly championing the needs of the wired. We've worked to help keep your cords in order while you're charging your various gadgets, but that's only half a solution. Well-organized chargers won't do you any good if you never have any time to plug in. Some people are so busy that they outlast their cell phone battery. The solution? Charge on the go, of course, but your time-crunched friend can hardly carry a generator around in their pocket. This handy messenger bag is surely the solution, it's a solar-powered, gadget-charging, machine. The solar panels on the sides absorb power from the sun, and pump it into all their gadgets which can be easily plugged in on the inside. Also includes car charger socket, a usb adapter, 11 other adapters and an ac charger.
Who we'd give it to: Geeks on the go, frequent travelers, Californians.
Where to get it: From RedEnvelope for a sunny $229.
