Today Soldius introduced the world's first and only golf bag with a built-in solar charger for cell phones and Blackberries. Unveiled at the 53rd Annual PGA Merchandising Show and Convention, Soldius Golf Bags give golfers the luxury and freedom to fully charge their cell phones and Blackberries while playing a round of golf.

Available for purchase soon at www.mysoldius.com and other retail outlets, Soldius Golf Bags are available in four distinct models, ranging in size and price. Soldius Golf Bags include charging tips compatible with more than 250 mobile phones and Blackberries, including most Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Siemens and Motorola phones. Tips for iPods are sold separately.

"Soldius Golf Bags are another example of ingenuity by a team of developers building an impressive line of solar products for 'on the go' people," said Don Doney, president of mySoldius. "Cell phones and Blackberries keep people connected with the world around them and the time spent playing a typical round of golf will enable an individual to fully charge a mobile device."

Soldius Golf Bags are easy to use. The golfer simply plugs their cell phone or Blackberry into the charging cord, places the phone into an inner pocket of the golf bag and starts their round of golf. Optimal charge time is dependent on having available sunlight.

Nice. Now I'm waiting for them to rig it to put cold drinks in. Now that would be useful.

Maybe I'm the only one who finds it useful, but it'll definitely be a problem with etiquette on the course.

Don't those little golf carts have any kind of 12V outlet like cars do? One could plug their car charger in it if they do.
