Talking about a touch screen mobile phone success, it would still be an understatement.  Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., a leading mobile phone provider, marked the sale of its 50 millionth full touch screen mobile phone globally this month, confirming its leadership in this fast-growing market segment.

Samsung has sold approximately 40 million full touch screen devices this year through the end of November, compared with around 10 million in 2008. The growth in sales shows the rapid adoption of full touch screen phones by mainstream consumers who enjoy the convenience of the intuitive user interface, powerful multimedia features and sleek designs.

From Pacebulter:

The green cell phones and concept phones of 2009 represent a truly unique convergence of technology and innovative ideas. In compiling this list we were looking for cutting-edge renewable power sources, use of recycled or easily-recyclable materials, zero toxic substances, and enhanced capabilities. We've also included the use of recycled and minimized packaging and thinner user manuals (for the actual phones) in our criteria.

Here are what's available and what's possible in 2009. Enjoy.

• Blue Earth
• Magic Stone
• LG Pop
