green mobile

{Live @ CEL Manila} Green Mobile is a new company offering a number of mobile solar chargers and solar-powered backpacks -- really useful for traveling gadget geeks. Each one comes with a Lithium-Ion battery so you can charge them under the sun as a stand-alone device and hook them up to your mobile phone later. Charging time to mobile phones take about 1 to 2 hours and can recharge a single phone battery up to two times in a single full charge. The solar-powered bag (Green Mobile explorer) doesn't have any Li-Ion battery with it so charging has to be done actively (while exposed under the sun). We've got over a hundred submissions from our recent poll on mobile 3G services. Quite a number of users have already been using their new uMobile SIMs too (7.19%) while fledgling Sun Cellular 3G is still down there. Surprisingly, very few people are using PLDT WeRoam -- a service which has practically been supplanted by SmartBro Mobile 3G. uMobile on the other hand, though an autonomous telco is still considered a Smart/PLDT property and their free ad-supported 3G services will certainly bump up their total numbers.
