Samsung Solar Powered Phone




This one goes out to my fellow EC'er Clinton! A couple days ago he posted an idea for my IDEA CHALLENGE. His idea was a solar powered phone, which he thought would be a great idea, but just hasn't seen it on the marketplace. Well my friend... That day has come. Introducing SamSung's "Blue Earth" phone. Small, sleek, touch screened, and has a solar panel on its back to generate enough power to charge itself!

Samsung's goal is to achieve the greenest phone on the market. "The body itself is actually made out of recycled water bottles and has no brominated flame retardants, beryllium and phthalates- all incredibly toxic substances. That goes for the charger as well, which also meets the newer standby mode energy efficiency ratings. " (inhabitat.com)
