Solar Window

In January 2010, New Energy researchers achieved a major ‘transparency’ breakthrough in the development of our SolarWindow™ technology, capable of generating electricity on see-thru glass. For the first time ever, scientists successfully developed and integrated transparent, environmentally-friendly compounds onto glass in order to collect the electricity generated on our SolarWindow™ -- an important function. To-date, the collection of electricity was possible only through the use of a metal contact, which blocked visibility and limited transparency. Our first-of-its-kind SolarWindow™ technology enables see-thru windows to generate electricity...

And no, I am not talking about the operating system war, but the multimedia player war; because as much as Microsoft tries to subtly hides its attack against the iPod range, the truth is obvious and too clear to not see it.
