Samsung shows off new green phone

Samsung has been working to come up with more environmentally-friendly phone designs, and at the Beijing Olympics it took the wraps off the new E200 Eco made from sustainable materials.

The phone features a case made from corn-derived bio-plastic, and is packaged in a non-coated recycled paper box. The phone packs a 1.3 megapixel camera as well as MP3-play functionality.
