The Hop-on’s disposable cellphone idea is simpy great, which is suitable for students and those who have high tendency to lose their cell phones. The previous versions of Hop-on disposable cellphones still sound little high for the average. But one of the latest models, the HOP1800 sounds very much affortable to almost everyone. It costs only 10 bucks.
The Hop-on HOP1800 is dubbed as the “Anti-iPhone”. It most probably hints that iPhone is a cell phone that has high risk of getting stolen as it’s a cell phone that every one wants. But the HP1800 cellphone carries a basic GSM radio which the price is as low as $10 that no one would give a damn for stealing it.
The HOP1800 can work over 40 carriers including all the major players. It’s got no display, similar to other Hop-on disposable siblings. You get four hours of talk time, 16 MIDI ringers and Braille markings on the keypad. Reasonably thin, and the most important is its price that everyone can afford.

I don’t find that most phones are too expensive, its the plans that are killer.

Unless you’re in on the pump and dump, please don’t give this guy Peter Michaels or any of his shell companies press.
Consider this a Public Service Announcement:

This could actually be really good for developing countries and all that.
