Mersault

I was looking for charging accessories for Axim when a solarcell caught my eye. It was a Panasonic BP-376634 with maximum output of 5.5V and 33mA. This panel had dimensions of 65mm x 37mm and it only costed 2.5 euros (equals 2.5 USD). I am no expert in electronics but I instantly started wondering if it would be possible to use solarcells with Axim. Let's say 2 cells into the back of the device and when you're not using it, you could turn Axim upside down and in sunny conditions it would start charging. The only problem would propably be that the voltage would depend of the lightening conditions, so it would hardly be constant 5 V. As I read from another thread lower voltage could be harmfull for Axim.

Does anybody know presicely how much Axims uses power when turned off? I remember Axim would keep information for at least 2 days..1440mAh / 48h = 30mA. So maybe in optimal conditions this 33mA cell could really "charge" Axim in stead of just keeping it up longer. And two panels would give douple the amount of current.

What is your opinion of solarpower-Axim (I didn't find any other thread considering this issue) ? There must be thousands of sites selling solarproducts, one US place was this:
