Wirefly Showcases the Hottest-Selling Mobile Devices on the
Internet - Unique Wireless Features and Stylish Designs Lead the
Pack in Consumer Demand - WASHINGTON, Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/
-- Wirefly, an online leader in one-stop online comparison shopping
for mobile phones and wireless plans, today highlighted the
hottest-selling wireless phones on the Internet. Wirefly has become
one of the most recognized and trusted brands online for wireless
shoppers by continuously surveying the hottest-selling devices from
the more than 300 different wireless products it sells and
activates over the Internet for all the leading wireless carriers
in America. Today, the hottest-selling mobile devices from Wirefly
are: Motorola RAZR v3 The Motorola super-hot RAZR v3 is as sleek
and stylish as it is advanced. Designed to be the thinnest flip
phone ever, the RAZR v3 has a solid anodized aluminum shell packed
full of the latest technology; quad-band GSM for use in 100
countries, long-range Bluetooth, MPEG4 video, 4x optical zoom
digital camera and a large, beautiful 2.2" color display inside.
The Motorola RAZR v3 has emerged as one of the most desirable
wireless phones ever produced. Motorola i860 Camera Phone The
Motorola i860 is the first camera-video phone on the push-to-talk
(iDEN) network. Exclusively on Nextel, the key features include two
large color displays, VGA camera with video capture,
button-activated flip, speakerphone, GPS functionality, MMS, and
voice dialing -- including Nextel's unique Direct Send
functionality. RIM BlackBerry The BlackBerry continues to be a
favorite among professionals and ever- growing group of personal
users. All variations of the device offered by the wireless
carriers are extremely popular. Its simple functionality has made
it the device of choice for email wireless users at any age. The
newer BlackBerries are still email-centric devices, but sport color
screens, improved battery life, and a smaller form than previous
BlackBerry models. Key features include integrated, backlit QWERTY
keyboard, corporate email integration, attachment viewing, WML/HTML
browser, and voice calling. Samsung P735 Video Phone Samsung's
first GSM megapixel camera phone sports a unique, "twist and
swivel" design with two color screens and has become a real
attention grabber to the fashion conscious mobile user. The P735's
digital camera can let users print images three times larger than
those of standard camera phones, and lets users take live video
recordings of up to 100 minutes. Users can also enjoy music using
the phone as an MP3 player. Danger Sidekick II Made popular by
celebrities in entertainment and sports, the Sidekick II is 25%
slimmer than its predecessor and has enhanced its features with the
addition of a camera and better battery. It boasts a unique
side-hinge that opens to reveal a full color screen and backlit
keyboard for email and instant messaging services from both Yahoo!
and AOL. The Sidekick II has a digital camera, high-speed data for
fast uploads and downloads, and BlackBerry-like "push" email
capability, all of which makes this device a very popular and very
capable messaging device. (Note - Wirefly has not listed the
devices above in any particular order.) "We have seen strong demand
for these wireless devices," said Wirefly's President, Brian
Westrick. "It's apparent from the response we have received that
these devices deliver both form and functionality for a wide range
of wireless users at every age. As the desire and trend to shop for
mobile devices on the Internet grows, Wirefly remains at the
forefront in offering the most desirable products at the lowest
prices." Westrick added, "Wirefly's customer experience is about
getting the device you want -- at the lowest price -- with the best
rate plan for your needs -- in a much easier and faster way than
going to a retail store." The InPhonic-powered Wirefly provides
customers with a secure e-commerce platform that takes them through
