Full eclipses are extremely rare, and it makes perfect sense for the Eclipse phone to be rare as well - mainly due to the fact that this is but a concept and won't be manufactured anytime soon. It was named the Eclipse because the handset will be solar powered, and has barebones phone functionality which stop at just holding phone conversations and sending/receiving text messages. Forget about video calls, capturing full blown pictures and surfing the Internet - at least you'll have the best looking basic phone in the market if this ever rolls out. Since it is so slim, I wonder whether it can function as a boomerang...
