    The toxic raw materials and waste created when making a Solar USB Dick is unacceptable.

    I only buy Geothermal USB Dicks. They like it when it's warm and dark.

    @tantryl: ZING!

    I was really hoping these drives looked a bit more phallic. Disappointing, really.

    Hmmm...it doesn't mention Linux support. I want to know if I can run my Solar USB Dick 'headless'.

    I don't think it's actually a capacity meter. From the text it seems it's just a combination of a USB drive and the "solar keychains" you see in gift shops or as promotional gifts. They sandwich a translucent company logo somewhere between the LCD reflector and outside of the device, and just use the solar panel power to blink the whole LCD panel on and off as one element. It's a piece of crap, technically, but like the Esquire e-ink cover does a decent job of making it look like the image is lighting up (rather than being periodically masked).
