The 10.1-inch Intel Atom N570 powered netbook has the lid covered with solar cells. Other features of the NC215 include 250GB HDD, 1GB RAM, Wifi 802.11n and Windows 7 Starter. 

Samsung is not really forward with information on how much benefit the solar panel is giving you. In any case it looks cool and gives you a green image right away. I heard that works well with the ladies.
