Motorola PVOT concept phone

Motorola has come up with a low cost phone solution that harks back to the Industrial age – the Motorola PVOT is powered by a hand crank that charges the rechargeable AA battery within. 25 cranks will grant you 1 minute of usage. Other features include a 125 x 125 dot matrix LCD and an “Eraser Shield” keypad. We aren’t sure whether this concept phone will make it to production, but it would be pretty popular in developing third world countries.
