I know it sounds impossible in europe and USA but yup, a world like that exists too. :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[asheryaqub]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 4th 2010 7:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/03/nokias-15-bike-charger-will-abide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/03/nokias-15-bike-charger-will-abide/</guid><description><![CDATA[@Pdexter  Its launched in nigeria and targets countries where electricity is not available to general public.
