GoSolarUSA (PinkSheets:GSLO) announced today that the company
signed a purchase order for 100 demonstration units of Yosion’s
Apple Peel 520 device. These units purchased by GoSolarUSA will be
among the first of the groundbreaking iPod Touch accessories to
arrive in the U.S., the world’s largest market for iPod
accessories.

The Apple Peel 520 is a protective skin that slips over Apple’s
iPod Touch media player and adds the ability to make voice calls
and send text messages, mimicking the functionality of the
electronics giant’s more expensive iPhone. The device also includes
a 4.5-hour battery, dock connector and SIM card.
GoSolarUSA President and CEO Tyson Rohde is in China this week
meeting with executives and developers from Yosion. Rohde said on
Monday that he plans to bring GSLO’s 100 demo units back with him
to the U.S. when he returns.
“We plan to begin distributing these 100 Peels to retail buyers
and media outlets across the country as soon as we can,” said Tyson
Rohde, President and CEO of GoSolarUSA. “We’ve already received
inquiries from major American retailers regarding the device’s
availability. The technology is real, and it’s ready for a proper
American debut.”
Last week, GoSolarUSA inked a distribution agreement with Yosion
giving the company exclusive rights to distribute the Apple Peel
520 in North America. The deal solidified GSLO’s relationship with
Yosion as the Chinese developer’s exclusive partner for the West.
Rohde will remain in China for several more days conducting due
diligence toward additional deals with Yosion.
GoSolarUSA ordered a much smaller number of demonstration models
in late September. The Peel’s initial manufacturing run hit retail
shelves in China earlier this month.
“The response to Yosion’s Apple Peel 520 by Chinese consumers
thus far has been thrilling,” Rohde said. “Retailers are selling
out. It’s a scene we’d very much like to replicate in America this
holiday season.”
GoSolarUSA is dedicated to aggressively acquiring, developing
and marketing promising and potentially profitable technology. The
Apple Peel 520 is a product of Yosion Technologies based in
Shenzhen, China. The iPod Touch and the iPhone 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.
