IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hop-on, Inc.
(Pink Sheets: HPNN) announced today the successful debut of their HOP1800
disposable cell phone at last weeks 90th PGA Championship game. Hop-on was
among the most prestigious Fortune 500 companies in today's marketplace to be
featured in the PGA Championship Program.
Peter Michaels, President and CEO of Hop-on said, "It is safe to say we
met our goal at the PGA Tournament last week. The exposure that this event
generated has put Hop-on in a position for consulting and production on
co-branding and formulating new partnerships. We are ecstatic about the
tremendous amount of opportunities and demand that Hop-on has experienced with
the HOP1800 at this summer's launches. There are several more events to come
this year and we are anticipating these venues will take Hop-on to the next
level. We have an entire new line of products that are still to come and I am
positive that our consumers and forming partnerships will not be
disappointed."
Michaels also stated, "Hop-on is well aware of the new BIC Disposable cell
phone that has teamed with Orange France." BIC is selling the phone for
$80USD (50 Euros) with 10 minutes of talk time and an additional 50 minutes if
the consumer chooses to wait for activation, which can only be done by mail.
Interestingly, BIC has only proved our point - that there is a market for a
simple, easy to use, Disposable Cell Phone. There are a lot of people out
there that just want to be able to make a phone call. The BIC price point of
$80 however, does not even come close to the $10 for the HOP1800 in the US!"
