Are you ready for Solar powered Mobile Phones? (PIC)

Apple's been "evaluating" whether to go solar. But based on this article, they are already looking at a supply chain. I think they are well past the "evaluation" stage. The problem I have with this idea is whether there will be any workarounds for cloudy days and will there be a boost in battery storage capacity to compensate?

Apparently whoever granted them a patent on "solar powered portable electronic device" had never heard of a calculator.

they will be releasing some very cool shit going forward, was reading about some of the patents they acquired via several billion dollars spent. these patents were along the lines of augmented reality which will explode in the very near future imo.

hat's off to apple, i don't care for their products but i am glad to see them innovating.

You don't think Apple invented this idea, do you?

I remember solar powered calculators back in the early 80s, why has it took 30 years to come up with this?

It hasn't! Appel did not invent this. This stuff has been around quite some time now.

But ofcourse, all the Apple fanfags will claim it's the best thing since sliced bread and pray to Jobs.

I wouldn't mind a solar powered phone as long as I can still plug it in when needed

Probably because it will need more then one cell for powering up.

Battery issues and also getting the complete unit to run on the least amount of electricity to make the phone work. I think they still have a long ways to go.

Waste of time, i can recharge my phone's battery for 1-2 hrs. Then use it for 3-4 days. I don't need a solar shit and catch sunlight like crazy.

Solar calculators don't have dual core gigahertz processors and large full color displays, nor do they transit high speed data to towers miles away. Therefore, a smart phone uses roughly one thousand times as much power as a calculator. New solar cell technology is only now starting to get close to providing anything like enough power to help charge a smartphone battery without requiring a ten pound solar array.
