For those of us who waited in line for the new 3G iPhone, we've noticed that the battery life has been cut significantly. To solve that problem in an eco-friendly way, Mobilefun has made an iPhone case with an imbedded solar panel. The case soaks up solar rays and stores them in a 1500 mAh battery, which then charges up your phone when you insert it. It's not the fastest method, as the case will take 3 hours to give you a functional charge and 10 hours for a full charge. But if you're the kind of person that isn't near an outlet most of the day or just has a problem remembering to charge your phone, maybe this case could help you maintain your connectivity. Too bad it's kinda ugly.
