Think they could have used their money more wisely - but that wouldn't generate any income i guess. I'd say this was more of a marketing gimmick than a genuinely necessary product... cynical i know. promotion of recycling is an important thing, but does this not send out a mixed message? nice idea if you were to do this as a fun bit of DIY, but surely creating an electrical device out of an otherwise entirely recyclable package defeats the purpose of the exercise? it will use more energy to transport, not to mention the electricity to run it.
