HTW Electronics was exhibiting a solar powered mobile phone concept at CeBIT this week and claims that a full production model will be released in China next month.
The HTW S116 has an array of solar cells which charge an internal Li-Ion battery which offers 20-25 minutes of talk time for a 40 minute charge in the sunshine.
Despite being an eco-friendly device the HTW S116 includes a 1.3 megapixel digital camera, memory card slot and 320 x 240 pixel QVGA display.
This device, if it really works, will be groundbreaking in its usefulness towards third world communities without a reliable electricity supply.
