“Anticipation for the unveiling of Apple’s iPhone 5 is already
running at a fever pitch,” said GSLO President and CEO Tyson Rohde.
“GoSolarUSA is making plans to capitalize on the explosion in
demand for iPhone 5 accessories upon its release.”
Sales predictions for both the iPhone 4 and forthcoming iPhone 5
have GoSolarUSA excited about the prospects for its hot new battery
pack accessory. In March, Asymco analyst Horace
Dediu predicted that Apple’s current-generation iPhone 4
smartphone handset will likely sell around 60-65 million units in
total. Sales of its coming successor, the iPhone 5, could nearly
double that amount, he said. Dediu based his predictions on Apples
historical iPhone sales figures, iPhone production ramps and market
growth patterns. Through the first four generations of the iPhone,
he said, each new version of the groundbreaking device sells
roughly twice as many units as the last.
Dediu’s bold prediction was good news for GoSolarUSA. The
company is counting on demand from a massive number of iPhone users
to drive interest in the Volt. GoSolarUSA owns the exclusive right
to sell and distribute the Volt in North America, the world’s
largest market for iPhone accessories.
The Volt uses a built-in solar panel and 1500 mAh battery to
dramatically extend the talk time of the iPhone 3, iPhone 3GS and
iPhone 4. GSLO plans to add the iPhone 5 to that list once
specifications are released for the next-gen smartphone.
GoSolarUSA is dedicated to aggressively acquiring, developing
and marketing promising and potentially profitable technology. The
Volt Solar Charger is a product of Xiamen Solar Electronics based
in Xiamen, China. The iPhone is a product of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:
AAPL), which competes in the global mobile electronics market
against Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: MMI) and Research
in Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM).
