I apologize for exhausting you with yet another iPod speaker bag, but I promise that this design is more geek chic than totally geeky, even if it is faux leather.

Featured on 7 Gadgets, the Groove bag by Felicidade looks like a giant clutch handbag that you'd pair with pumps for a day of shopping.
What I like about it is the iPod Cradle and the fact that the two speakers blend in with its exterior, making it more conspicuous than other iPod bags. Although I'm still debating whether or not I'd actually use it! Priced at $100.

While power from the sun is readily available, its usage and practicality are still a mystery to many. Solar chargers allow you the freedom to unplug from the wall and use natural light. Many battery chargers are continuously recharged via an array of photo-voltaic panels that convert light into free energy - meaning you can charge your devices whenever, wherever.

Of course, if there's no light available or you're in a terrible rush companies like Voltaic, which makes the battery packs for the backpack on the right, also include automobile and world voltage AC charging adapters. You will have to spend a bit more for solar powered bags, but the small single device chargers (say for your smartphone or iPod) cost about the same as regular travel chargers and will save energy, time and money in the long run.

Solar chargers used to be clunky devices that were best for home use, but now there are some great, moderately priced chargers that are small enough to fit in your suitcase and chic enough that airport security won't think it's a homemade bomb. If eco chic is your thing you can even charge your gadgets with a solar powered swim suit. Talk about hot.

We've been complaining about the nightmare that is business trips for ages, but it looks like the future of flight will be completely geek and work friendly.

Gizmodo featured a sneak peek of the new Virgin America planes yesterday revealing each seat will include 110 volt AC current, ethernet and USB ports for charging iPods and phones. They will also accept a QWERTY for the linux-based, thin client, in flight entertainment system.

The planes will feature a "Red Inflight Entertainment System" that includes 18 channel live in-flight satellite entertainment, as well as access to Google Maps and pay-per-view movies The airline is launching August 8.

There really is no end to the USB gadget universe. Case in point: "Jones's Mr. Tengu," a USB character that Solid Alliance devised with London designer Crispin Jones. When you connect Mr. Tengu to the USB port of a computer a red LED "face" appears and reacts to the sound around the room. As sounds change, so do Mr. Tengu's faces. Make him mad and you've got a grumpy, robotic USB on your hands. I wonder what happens when you play Rihanna?
