Sharp Plans on Exporting More Cell Phones Internationally
Although Sharp is the biggest cell phone manufacturer in Japan (in terms of market share), the company is uncomfortable seeing the domestic market getting smaller. In a recently published press release, Sharp has announced that they are planning on strengthening its mobile phone line for the international market.
The first in its plan is to export one of its big sellers to China: A solar-powered cell phone. The Solar Hybrid SH6230C has a solar cell module, a 2.9-inch LCD screen, and 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus.
The SH6230C, which comes in blue and white, is the first solar mobile phone that Sharp would market outside Japan. It will become available for Chinese users this February, costing about US$500, but Sharp announces that the solar powered phone may hit the shelves of other countries as well.

Google-Nexus-One-002
Last Tuesday, Google finally confirmed it was entering the hardware market with the launch of its mobile handset. The Nexus One is made to Google’s specifications by HTC, a Taiwanese company, and runs the latest version of Android software, an open source operating system already running on some handsets, including those made by HTC, and Motorola.
Salivating over a head-to-head competition between Google, Apple and the mainstream news media made so much of it as they could. The BBC has even sent its technology correspondent, Rory Cellan-Jones, to Google’s headquarters, where he obeyed has asked whether the company thought its new mobile competition for Apple’s iPhone would give. The Google spokeswoman waffled, but need not have bothered. The reality is that, in most respects, the Google phone is inferior to the products of Apple. Read the rest of this entry »
