Orange claims their concept for a new solar eco tent will allow "campers to keep in touch and power their essential camping gadgets." In other words, you'll now be able to text rescuers next time you're surrounded by bears.The tent features photovoltaic panels to keep everything all charged up, an RFID tag to find your tent using SMS, wireless chargers for your gadgets and, our favorite, a heated floor that turns on when the temperature drops below a certain threshold.
As a bonus, if a chipmunk happens to gnaw through your tent's wiring, you'll also be able to dine on fried rodent. No price yet, but if you consider this "roughing it," you might want to try a stylish mobile home of the future.

That's just dumb! The whole point of camping is to escape from modern conveniences and to enjoy nature.

Toasty rodents? Count me in. You guys can go play with your veggie burrito machine. I'm watching Hi-def with hookers in my tent.
