Solar charged MP3 player with a difference

We've seen a lot of different solar chargers for gadgets (including the mother of them all, the solar charging table). Now we're starting to see gadgets that have a solar panel built in.

Crave reports that later this year, Singapore-based company Shiro will release a 16GB MP3 player featuring a 1.8-inch color display, FM tuner, and solar panel which recharges the device fully within four hours, sun permitting (which it often is in Singapore - it has to be the hottest place I've ever been to!).

It's called the SQ and there are no price details yet.
