To combat this problem, blueunplugged is coming soon with a solar-powered case for the iPhone 3G. The USP of the product is that it charges it apart from protecting the device from scratches and damages.
The case is available in large high capacity 1500mAh battery, permitting users to charge from a solar source and store the power for one full charge of the iPhone. The solar panel mounted in front of the case recharges the case or else it is recharged via mini USB if in a badly lit area. The mini USB can also be used to charge other devices from the case.
The solar case can supplement enough charge for functional use in less than 3 hours, but it will take a full 10 hours to full battery. So, either leave the case on the dashboard or window sill all day, then charge your phone up at night.

* Solar energy for Charging iPhone 3G
