Bangalore: Now you don't have to worry if the mobile battery is drained or if there is no access to electricity. All you have to do is just keep the phone in Sun light, thanks to the new Samsung Guru E1107, which allows charging of mobile battery through Solar power. Samsung has recently launched the world's first solar powered mobile phone in the Indian market. The new handset has the capacity to provide about 5 to 10 minutes of talk time with 1 hour of solar charge. The company claims that the battery can attain full power with about 40 hours of solar charging. Other features include FM radio, MP3 ring tones, embedded games and torch light. The phone also offers Mobile Tracker, which automatically alerts users in case the phone's SIM card is replaced or sends out an SOS message in an emergency. The Solar Guru also offers "Mobile prayer", a specialized feature for different religions that includes religious prayers and wall papers. The handset is priced at 2799.
