If It Prints, I'll Let You Know

The IT world is abuzz over the rivalry between the iPhone 3G S and the Palm Pre. We have read not only a few posts comparing the iPhone and the Pre in an effort to determine which is the smarter of these two smartphones. We can go forever debating on that, but one will always have an edge over the other. Thus, I suggest we move on to other interesting phone models that recently made its way to the market — just like the solar powered mobile phone from Samsung.

Samsung Guru E1107 was recently launched in India. The biggest selling feature of this model is dual charging. While the main source of power is electricity, the Solar Guru allows users to charge the batteries anywhere the sun is shining.

The solar charging alternative will save its users electricity, which means they also save money. This is also particularly helpful when you are away in areas where electricity is unstable. An hour of charging under the sun can give you 5 to 10 minutes of talk time. This may not be much, but when your battery is dead and you need to make an important call, just even for a few minutes, this can be a real life-saver.

The Solar Guru packs in its frame measuring 105.2 x 44.15 x 16.4mm the following features — FM radio, MP3 ring tones, games, torch light and 1MB of memory. It also has a Mobile Tracker, which sends out an alert message during an emergency or when the SIM card is changed.

The Samsung Solar Guru is set to invade Europe, Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and Latin America this month.
