GoSolarUSA to Give Away 100 Free Peel 520s to fans on Waiting List

NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- American consumers may not be able to purchase a Peel 520 just yet, but at least they can get in line: Today, GoSolarUSA unveils its online waiting list for the breakthrough gadget.

iPod Touch fans can now visit GoSolarUSA.com, enter an e-mail address and other contact information and expect to be notified first when the Peel 520 becomes available for purchase in the U.S. “Everyone who signs up for the waiting list will receive a special offer on the device before it hits retail shelves,” said GoSolarUSA President and CEO Tyson Rohde.

“We’ve received so many inquiries from consumers and iPod enthusiasts as to the Peel 520’s availability that we essentially had no choice but to start a waiting list,” Rohde said. “Demand is very high for this product and we wanted to give our loyal fans an opportunity to get one before anyone else.”

“If you want to be the first on your block to turn your iPod Touch into a smartphone, our Peel 520 waiting list is the only way to do it,” he said.

To encourage potential customers to join the growing movement in the U.S. eager to own the Peel 520, GoSolarUSA will give away a Peel 520 to 100 randomly selected people who sign up for the device’s waiting list with no purchase necessary.

“Not only will these lucky few get the Peel 520 first, they’ll get it for free,” Rohde said.

Based on the demand for the Peel 520’s initial run in China, GoSolarUSA is confident that the gadget will enjoy similar success in North America, the world’s largest market for iPod accessories. The company signed an exclusive North American distribution agreement with Yosion, the developer of the Peel 520, in October. Demand for the Peel 520 is being driven by the device’s groundbreaking functionality. The device snaps on to the iPod Touch’s case and includes a 4.5-hour battery, dock connector and SIM card. With the proper software installed, the Peel 520 adds the ability to make voice calls and text messages to the Touch.

GoSolarUSA is dedicated to aggressively acquiring, developing and marketing promising and potentially profitable technology. The Peel 520 is a product of Yosion Technologies based in Shenzhen, China. The iPod Touch and the iPad are products of Apple Inc., (NASDAQ: AAPL) which competes in the global smartphone market against Google’s (NASDAQ: GOOG) Android devices and the Research in Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM) BlackBerry line.
