Not much of a hifi technology-rich phone, the Digicel Coral 200 Solar Go-Green Phone offers the basic mobile phone features, like calling and messaging. It is not one of those handsets with which you would fall in love at first sight. It is a little bulky, owing to the solar batteries housed in it. Yet, it is a boon for all those people around the world who are not blessed with electricity.
