I don't know if I have ever told you this but green is among my most favorite of colors. I like it because it symbolizes nature, it reminds me of spring. You know one of those days in spring when everything is just perfect? The temperature is right and everything is just so green and full of life! Also, if you're a Sony Ericsson fan (which I am not), the name green might also remind you of the GreenHeart series of devices. Speaking of the GreenHeart series, did you know that it recently unveiled two new phones in the lineup?

“The Sony Ericsson Elm and the Sony Ericsson Hazel phones offer consumers a green choice without compromising on features or fun. These mobile phones also give consumers a better voice quality experience, with Noise Shield, Clear Voice and Intelligent Volume Adaptation. Both phones offer an easy-to-use social networking experience featuring the Widget Manager application, which allows users access to their social networking page via the stand-by screen and quickly switch between different social networks.” said Fortune Alexander, Global Marketing Director at Sony Ericsson.

The Elm and Hazel come with a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, and can connect via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or USB but their best feature is the fact that they are made from recycled plastics, have an included e-manual (no paper was wasted there) and are free from hazardous chemicals. They also come with a low power consumption charger and the Walk Mate Eco application. The Elm will be made available starting with Q1 2010 in the colors Metal Black and Pearly Rose, while the Hazel is due in Q2 2010 in Superior Black and Passionate Rouge.

“The Sony Ericsson Elm phone, Sony Ericsson Hazel phone and the VH700 are a testament of our continued commitment to the environment and are part of the ongoing roll-out of our GreenHeart™ strategy announced in June 2009.” continues Mats Pellback Scharp, Environmental Director at Sony Ericsson.
