Ladies and gents, presenting the world’s cheapest phone. And it isn’t just available in the USA — but worldwide too. if you can get your hands on one, please don’t get ripped off. Don’t spend more than $10.00 to buy your ultimate “built for Sparta” mobile phone. The Hop-On 1800 comes with the following specs:
Size: 96.6mm(D)x41.6mm(W)x14mm(H)

Oh, we were saying something about bringing the price down even further — you can actually grab a $5.00 rebate if you return the phone and have it recycled. What a neat-o way to go green!
Branding Opportunities
Instead of the usual pen or notebook with your corporate logo for giveaways, why not give away Hop1800 mobile phones to everyone who attended your press event? Oh yes, this phone is so cheap, your company can even brand the Hop-On 1800 to suit your marketing needs. How to do this? Well, head on over to their site.
I think this is the first time where we have a phone that has accessories more expensive than the unit itself! The phone supports a headset, a leather case, travel charger and car charger.
