T-Mobile USA and Motorola have jointly announced the retail availability of the amazing MOTO W233 Renew, the most “green” and recyclable mobile phone, with a plastic phone casing and comprised of recycled water bottles.
The Renew, now available for $9.99 with a two-year service agreement, is an affordable option for T-Mobile customers desiring to reduce their carbon footprint. Through an alliance with Carbofund.org, Motorola has made the first ever carbon-neutral mobile phone.
The Motorola MOTO W233 Renew delivers good battery life with up to nine hours of talk time. T-Mobile also offers customers the option to sign up for paperless billing. In conjunction with Arbor Day Foundation, it has now successfully planted 500,000 trees, with a view to protect the earth.
Motorola MOTO W233 Renew is a first handset made from recycled plastic water bottles. It’s also the world’s first carbon neutral mobile phone. The W233 Renew has a 1.6” 65k color CSTN display with 128 x 128 resolution, 2GB removable memory, WAP browser and USB mini support. With dimensions 54 x 110.97 x 14.7 mm and weight 83g it provides up to 9 hours of talk and up to 18 days of standby time.
Motorola has announced two novel releases for display at the 2009 International CES to be held at Las Vegas. The first introduction, the MOTO W233 Renew, is truly special since it has an environmentally friendly design teamed with fantastic quality, while also helping you reduce your carbon footprint. The plastic casing of the MOTO W233 Renew is made from recycled plastic water bottles. This also happens to be the world’s very first carbon neutral mobile phone. Even the packaging of the phone is made from recycled paper, so it cuts down the cost and the size of the package.
This phone uses natural renewable energy sources and has rightly earned the CarbonFree Product Certification from Carbonfund.org after a series of product life-cycle assessment tests. This highly environmentally responsible phone is expected to create waves once it arrives in the markets.
Motorola’s second introduction, the MOTOSURF A3100, is a 3G touch tablet with a customizable home screen, layered on top on the usual Windows Mobile 6.1 software. All features of the MOTOSURF A3100 can be accessed with the tip of a finger, stylus or its trackball. This smartphone gives you access to the latest news, info on weather, access emails and more. You can also listen to MP3s, participate in videoconferences and access Facebook while on the go.
