South African designers Animal Farm have these lovely wooden lamps shaped like lightbulbs. The red cords make all the difference. Thanks to NotCot for the tip.

Soo sent in this in. The Master LED by Phillips will be available in the US this summer. It uses Luxeon LEDs and is designed specifically as a retrofit. Costs are predicted to be ~$50+. Bonus style points for those lovely fins!
Thanks to Gizmodo for the details, and see the Phillips website for technical specs.

Just a little eye candy to kick off your weekend. Miwa Koizumi makes these lovely sculptures with little more than plastic bottles and her magical heat gun. Treehugger has an entire slideshow titled Amazing Art Created from Trash.
Enjoy!

Just got a peak at IKEA's summer catalog, which includes a whole spread on affordable solar lighting. I have no idea of the quality of the lights or the solar panels, but it might be worth heading over to E-Ville to take a look. Product details are up on the IKEA website. You can search "solig" to see the full collection.
Has anyone seen these in person?
