Steven Said:

is there any sort of solar charger for laptops?

We Answered:

I'm an environmentalist, so I've been looking at solar-power chargers too. I found a great article about solar-power laptop chargers that really helped. Here's a link: http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/10/…
I think you'll have to read it for yourself to find out which one is right for you. The article also includes the prices of the chargers, which I know you want to know.

Laptop with Solar Charged Battery Enviro Friendly?

We Answered:

My professor once told me that there is no such thing as free energy. To create a solar powered battery, it will take an emmense amount of energy to make the products that go into it. In the end, the components will break down from normal wear and tear and you will have to get another one.

To show you an example of what I mean, did you know how much energy it takes to make a 12 oz coke can? Enough energy for you to watch your TV for 3 hours, and that is just for an aluminum 12 oz can, imagine what all goes into making a solar powered battery system.
