Keep in mind that this is a concept phone. Although it’s one I would love to see, I doubt it will ever see the light of day. The image in the bottom left is what has me lusting, slide out qwerty and a familiar operating system. Come on Dell, make this the Dell Axim x71 we never got to see.

It’s got all the basic stuff we’ve come to expect from our mobiles; powerful 5 megapixel camera with built-in software for editing and uploading to a photo album, slide-out touch keyboard with tactile feedback, and a nice big touchscreen front and center. What makes this concept unique is parts of the phone are made from a chemically based thin solar skin to charge the battery when exposed to any kind of light. We’ve recently seen patents from companies like Apple detailing this exact thing.
