Solar Cell Phones Take Off In Developing Nations by mikelagos: 6:22pm On Aug 25, 2009 |
http://www./News/News.aspx?NewsId=1874 Peter Gathungu walks more than a mile to a shopping center, where he pays a sizable sum to charge his cell phone. That's because electricity is nonexistent in Gathungu's hometown of Njoro, in northwest Kenya. Landlines and other forms of communication are not as efficient, so Gathungu and millions of others in emerging nations rely on mobile phones. Charging the phones can be a headache in towns and villages where electricity is scarce. |
