Gadget girl readers, I’m sure you’ll like this. Ever realized you forgot to charge your cellphone, only after you left home? I’m sure it’s a very common thing. The Solarjo Power Purse solves that problem. This handbag features solar panels on its exterior, allowing you to charge your gadgets right inside the handbag! Even if you do remember to charge your gadgets everyday, it’ll help with the measly 2-hour-video-battery-life on your iPod Video.

Designed by Joe Hynek as part of his thesis on integrating fashion and technology, he aims to get it commercialized for under $300.

Gadgets are charged via the USB ports contained within the Solarjo Power Purse. All wires are cleverly hidden, and the shape of the handbag is designed in a way so it can sit on a windowsill and charge while you’re at work.

Joe, if you’re reading this, consider making one for the dudes. We’ll love to charge our PSP while we play basketball in the sun!
