Combining green manufacturing with the mobile communications and all the functionality you would like from a mobile, Sharp have come up with a new approach to a green mobile phone by coming up with the first water proof solar powered mobile phone.
I wouldn't have thought that there was a lot of call for people for making a phone call under water, but I guess I could be wrong? But Sharp have brought together some of the most innovative and energy efficient ideas to make this phone a reality. Solar powered this green mobile soaks up the suns rays and with just 10 minutes worth of sun you'll get about 1 minutes worth of talk time or 2 hours in stand by. The solar panel can contribute up to 80 per cent of the total power of the handset.
At present it’s only going to be launched in Japan...
