If they really wanted to go scifi, they could develop neutrino communication. A beam of neutrinos can go through a light-year thick wall of lead with only a 50% loss!
In Berlin, Germany during the cold war era, the Stasi (Big Brother Police) knew this! They could track individuals with smell. In fact they have a room FILLED with little jars of every citizens' personal smell! I've been there and seen the rooms. They had special dogs trained for this too. They would open the jar and let the dog smell some... then go out into the city and find this person, they had a good success rate too which is kind of surprising. They would even track people by spraying different pheromones on their target.
Yes! I actually have that EXACT model from the first link. It is 20 Watts and I run all my usb devices off of it simultaneously. I think I got up to about 7 or 8 devices at once before it reached its peek. It's great, I worked at the beach all summer and carried the panel in my bag every day, only taking up the size of a thin composition notebook. and the great thing is, IT FLEXES like a softback book. So there is no need to worry about breaking the "glass" on the panels.

NOMADIC POWER!
I want to get the Y adapter and bump my power up to 60 watts with a 2nd solar panel. I would suggest E.Bay for some great deals on these panels. such as this. http://cgi.ebay.com/35-Watt-Foldable-Solar-Panel_W0QQitemZ190262865303QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item190262865303&_trkparms=72%3A1205|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14
