Always-on mobiles

Motorola has filed a US patent for a solar-powered mobile that will be charged by light filtering through its display screen, according to the CIO website.

The sun will keep the mobile constantly powered up, without the need for a charger.

The same article mentions that Nokia has applied for a US patent to cover technology “to warn cell phone users of impending lightning strikes”.
