手機(jī)居然也可以使用5號(hào)電池

Olive Telecom has Introduced India’s first handset called Olive Frvron (V-G2300) that can be powered by a AAA battery. The handset is primarily powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. In case the primary battery dries out and there is no power source available nearby, the handset can provide an hours talktime on a standard AAA battery.

Except for the dual-power option, the handset has no biggies on the specs sheet. It features a 1.5″ color display along with built-in FM radio, speaker phone and polyphonic ringtones. A compromise on low specs always means a win on the pricing. The handset is pried at Rs. 1699 ($37) and is available in the markets. The low pricing and dual-power option may bring some good sales numbers for Olive Telecom in the rural parts of India which face some severe power cuts.

From dual SIM to dual powered phones. I think very soon we’ll have phones (commercially available) driving power from various sources like solar and dynamo. After the price war that plagued the mobile operators in India only time will tell what it does to the low end cell phone markets like rural India with entrants like Vodafone’s Voda 150 & 250 all ready to put it on fire.

手機(jī)使用的鋰電池雖然耐用，但是更換和充電都不夠人性化。尤其是在戶外無法充電的情況下，使用鋰電池的手機(jī)基本就處于癱瘓狀態(tài)了。不過Olive Telecom推出的這款手機(jī)--VG2300是一款可以支持AAA電池的手機(jī)。

??? 這款VG2300配備有一個(gè)1.5寸的屏幕，支持FM收音。手機(jī)采用GSM制式，因此使用CDMA制式的手機(jī)就基本無解了。另外據(jù)說該手機(jī)的定價(jià)大約是37美元，看起來還是非常便宜的。■
