Hop-on at the Major League Baseball World Series

    IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hop-on, Inc. (Pink
Sheets: HPNN) announced today that it will continue the promotion of its
New Disposable phone, the HOP1800, the worlds first $10.00 phone, at the
2008 MLB World Series games starting next week. Peter Michaels, President
and CEO of Hop-on, states, "Hop-on is a small company, we are not Wall
Street Financed, we are not currently profitable but we compete with
Fortune 500 Companies. If I do my job right, we will be in the black this
calendar year! This is why we are committed to go after these huge venues.
This is a huge risk, we believe in our products."

    Michaels also stated, "Our goal at these events is to gain further
exposure so that our phone simply becomes an effective method of marketing
and business for Hop-on and our corporate partners. For the consumer it is
a disposable, low-cost phone that simply makes and receives calls. We have
received an overwhelming amount of interest since the introduction of this
phone earlier this summer. Our phone has literally sold itself. The HOP1800
has clear sound, technology components including a flashlight, and a design
comparable to any mid-tier cell phone on the market for a fraction of the
cost."

    The HOP1800 is just one of Hop-on's 1800 Series phones that have been
introduced this year. The new series of phones include the HOP1801 Smart
Phone, the lowest cost Smart Phone on the market. The HOP1803, an Ultra Low
Price GSM Tri-Band phone, and the HOP1805, an Ultra Low Price cell phone
for emerging markets. All three phones will be available for distribution
in North and South America, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Available in
North and South America is the HOP1808 a Dual-band phone, and the HOP1809
3G mobile phone with camera. The HOP1800, the Lowest Cost mobile phone is a
GSM Dual-band simple phone with no display that features a Braille keypad
and built-in flashlight. And finally, the HOP1890 the Dual-band
ChitterChatter. With a large, bright screen with large text that is easy to
read and bigger buttons that are easy to push, dialing and making calls is
easier than ever. The ChitterChatter phone is specific for ease of use for
seniors. Michaels also stated, "The ChitterChatter for Seniors will bring
our company a monthly recurring revenue stream".
