It’s an idea so brilliantly simple, you wonder why Nokia didn’t do it five years ago. Annoyed at the way your mobile phone battery always seems to go flat just before an important call? Then stick a few solar cells on the back so it can charge itself up via the sun’s gleamy goodness. Job done.
Chinese firm Beijing Hengjiweiye has just shown off its solar-powered phone prototype, at the China Beijing International Expo 2007. Okay, so it’s not the prettiest device in the world, but it’s a start. And they’re not the only company working on solar phones either.

This is the Vodafone v1605 - a small but feature-rich handset. Push email, 2 megapixel camera, fantastic connectivity, video calling, Bluetooth 2.0, 400Mhz processor and a host of shortcut buttons. Running Windows Mobile 5.0 (Pocket PC) you’ve got stacks of software available to download too.
The v1605 is ready for HSPDA - this is the “3G on steroids” protocol that’s coming to Vodafone and other networks. There is, of course regular 3G capability, then EDGE if you need it and even GPRS too. If that’s not enough for you then you can always use WiFi (802.11b/g) for hooking up to a local hotspot or browsing the internet at home or in your local coffee shop. Quad-band capability also means that the v1605 can not only keep you entertained on flights abroad but also keep you in touch when you land. The usual IR port is also present, as is the mini USB plug for hooking into your PC. Bluetooth 2.0 also comes as part of the deal and will allow your funky bluetooth headsets and car-kits to function as they did with your previous device.
Mobile phones have shaped global communications. But who shapes mobiles? BBC News speaks to Jan Chipchase, principal researcher at Nokia Design.
Jan Chipchase tours the world looking at how people use mobile phones in their everyday lives and, more broadly, how people live.
“This is my office, my workspace,” he says, pointing to a map of the world.
In the last 12 months he has visited 15 countries, carrying out eight full-scale research projects.
Mr Chipchase’s focus is on the uses to which people put their phones; where they keep them, how they answer them, and a million other details about our relationships with these devices that have helped shape our world
On the street, in homes, in the office, in pockets, handbags, at the marketplace, and in the community - Mr Chipchase tries to put mobile phone use into the context of the culture and landscape he is in.
His research has included looking at home battery charging services in rural Uganda, street charging in Kampala, how illiterate people use a mobile and more recently where we keep our phones.
From city bankers to shantytown dwellers, and from hip teens to octogenarian SMS fiends, no use of a phone is too trivial; no detail of a person’s life too insignificant.

M icrovision, Inc., a global leader in innovative ultra-miniature projection display and image capture products for mobility applications, announced that it plans to unveil new advancements in its proprietary ultra-miniature display system, called PicoP, at the Society of Information Display (SID) annual conference in Long Beach, California, May 22 - 25, 2007. Microvision expects to showcase multiple projector model prototypes representing the recent PicoP advancements it has made in collaboration with several of the Company’s high volume manufacturing and key component supply chain partners.
PicoP projection system
For the first time Microvision plans to demonstrate a PicoP projection system based on its newly developed wide-angle MEMS scanner. The wide-angle MEMS based PicoP projector has nearly twice the projection angle compared to earlier versions, creating a full-color image with a viewable area that is approximately four times as large and that diagonally is almost twice as long as images created by its predecessors, while still maintaining its small and sleek form factor. The new PicoP prototype delivers WVGA resolution (854 x 480 pixels) in a 16:9 aspect ratio, thereby providing a DVD-quality viewing experience from a package that is expected to be only 7 mm thick.
