I like the idea of the Papyrus (especially at a lower price); but there are some things that make me go hmmm.

Quote:
A thin film solar cell is built into the laminated aluminum integral lid of the product. In sunlight, the cell can harvest enough energy to allow a page turn every 2.14 seconds, or every 6.62 seconds if the radio is actively sharing content. Extra energy gathered by the photovoltaic panel is buffered in the small Li-polymer cell in the main body. No external provisions are made for charging the device from mains power, so 100% of the energy used by Papyrus is renewable.
I'm uncertain how consistently well this will work relying just on solar power. Am I wrong?
