First, the good news: that slide we saw back in August promising Blue Earth deliveries in October was spot on, seeing how Samsung just made an official announcement to that effect. Now, the bad: unless you’re in Sweden, that doesn’t mean much — at least, not yet. The HSDPA-equipped full touch handset with an integrated solar charger is set to launch in the Nordic nation this month, with France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Portugal, and “other European and Asian countries” following on shortly; notably missing is the US, which wouldn’t benefit from the 900 / 2100MHz 3G radio anyhow. Pricing hasn’t been announced, but does it really matter when you’ll be saving all that cash on your power bill?
