Nah, there's no market for these devices. None at all. LMAO.
I agree, that would be nice.
Just waiting on the confirmation of that reduction and then we wil see our first big spike IMO.
Agreed, there is defintely a huge mrket for these products. Company just has to get the production started adn the follow thorugh on the AS reduction and we will be golden.
Global cell phone use at 50 percent
Thu Nov 29, 2007 12:42pm EST
(Reuters) - Worldwide mobile telephone subscriptions reached 3.3 billion -- equivalent to half the global population -- on Thursday, 26 years after the first cellular network was launched, research firm Informa said.
Since the first Nordic Mobile Telephony (NMT) networks were switched on in 1981 in Saudi Arabia, Sweden and Norway, mobile phones have become the consumer electronics sector with the largest volume of sales in the world.
"The mobile industry has constantly outperformed even the most optimistic forecasts for subscriber growth," Mark Newman, head of research at Informa said in a statement.
"For children growing up today the issue is not whether they will get a mobile phone, it's a question of when," Newman said.
In recent years the industry has seen surging growth in outskirts of China and India, helped by constantly falling phone and call prices, with cellphone vendors already eyeing inroads into Africa's countryside to keep up the growth.
The Nordic start for mobile telephony was the basis for the success stories of Finnish Nokia (NOK1V.HE) and Sweden's Ericsson (ERICb.ST).
Fast growth in Asian wireless markets has since helped Korean Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) and LG Electronics (066570.KS) as well as China's ZTE (0763.HK) take their place among the top six cellphone vendors globally.
But although mobile subscriptions have reached the equivalent of 50 percent of the population, this does not mean that half the people in the world now have a mobile phone, since Informa said 59 countries have mobile penetration of over 100 percent -- where some owners have more than one phone.
"The economic difference between the more mature markets and those in developing countries is highlighted by the vast differences in operators' revenues per user," Informa said.
Hutchison Whampoa's (0013.HK) 3 operation has an average revenue per user of just over $70 a month in Britain, while Hutchison's Sri Lankan operator counts revenues of below $3 per user.
According to the International Programs Center of the U.S. Census Bureau, the total population of the world reached 6,634,294,193 on Thursday.
At the same time 2,571,563,279 people were using the most widely used mobile technology, GSM (Global System for Mobile communications), according to global trade body GSM Association.
The second largest mobile technology, CDMA, had 421.4 million users at end September.

Would be nice to get past those buggers.
Nice ask slappage this AM out of the gate.
Morning people. AMOR GNW FTBK
Morning Stevo and all.
Morning people. Couple of highlights from yesterdyas update.
- We have advanced with the development of the YoGen® to the point where we will be initiating mass production. The first pilot run of 100 units is scheduled for March 11, 2009, with the start-up of full mass production scheduled for April 9, 2009.
- We have finalized the design of the YoGen MaxTM and will soon be initiating the process to prepare that product for mass production
- In 2008, we executed an agreement with Al-Sadeef Trading Company in Jordan to handle distribution of our products in the Middle East, in which they have agreed to purchase 300,000 ($3,000,000) YoGen®s per year.
- We are currently in negotiations with substantial distribution firms for other territories and are confident that several additional agreements will be finalized in the very near future.
- we will be executing a marketing plan that will include efforts in the United States and Canada.
- I have good reason to believe, with the reasonable success of our in-progress marketing discussions, that Easy Energy's revenues for 2009 could reach $10,000,000 with resulting earnings of $3,000,000 or better.
- We expect to be making progress reports on a regular basis in the near future
Keypoints from shareholder letter. IMO.

NO kidding stevo, do your due and invest accordingly.
Why the fixation on promotions? They happen all the time don't they one way or another?
LOL...indictments?
The company is moving forward swiftly in the areas of marketing and sales as well. In 2008, we executed an agreement with Al-Sadeef Trading Company in Jordan to handle distribution of our products in the Middle East, in which they have agreed to purchase 300,000 ($3,000,000) YoGen®s per year. We are currently in negotiations with substantial distribution firms for other territories and are confident that several additional agreements will be finalized in the very near future.
Missed this little tidbit earlier. Sounds like they have several possible contracts about to be announced.
"like a bum on a turkey samwich"
LOL, different...but good analogy.
YoGenT Charger design and technical advantages:
For power capability and ergonomic design, for operation without fatigue and the most effective charging, three major design innovations have been incorporated:
1. A high power, disk alternator; designed as a very compact, low-profile device in a flat smooth housing. A novel, patented design of the combination of coreless permanent magnet rotor and stator coils, integrated with electronic circuit attached to mechanical transmission providing high power and efficiency of the charger .
2. For ease of use over extended periods of charging, the YoGenT mechanism is a masterpiece of mechanical engineering. To keep the unit flat, simple speed multiplication mechanism is designed instead of complex gear mechanism used in other hand chargers. Further, the alternator rotors are "flywheels", which with built-in ratchet extend the effective generation cycle even after the pulling cycle has ceased.
3. The YoGenT Charger high power capability is complemented by the innovative charging and protection circuit providing proper consumer (e.g. cell-phone) charging and monitoring SOC of internal battery.
Power needs and charging times:
Cellphones: typical talk-transmission power is about 0.5-1W. With the 3.7V lithium-ion batteries, discharge current can reach 130-270mA. Standby current is much lower and when the screen is off it is less than 10mA.
Most available cell-phone batteries are of 750-1300mAh capacity. Typical charging times, with wall chargers, are from 3 to 5 hours, providing up to 400mA. YoGen under intensive operation may supply up to 1 A and thus to provide a tenfold talk time in relative to cord pulling time.
Nothing to frown at, that's for sure.
Not bad at all. Now if they were to accompish that this year, what do you think next year will be like?
Sure seems that way.
Will be interesting to see theresulst of their US and Canada marketing plans. Lots of updates coming down the pipes here.
Nice indeed. Thinking next update will be on the AS reduction.
If you have not viewed our website, I encourage you to inform yourself by doing that and also by viewing our SEC filings. We expect to be making progress reports on a regular basis in the near future, so please be alert for upcoming news releases, links to which, you will find posted on our website.
ESYE - To our valued Shareholders:
Jan 26, 2009
My name is Guy Ofir, CEO of Easy Energy, Inc. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your investment in Easy Energy and update you with regard to the exciting progress we are making toward the realization of our goal to make our company a profitable success and an industry leader with the accompanying benefit of increased shareholder value.
We believe we are in the right place at the right time with a line of products that are uniquely suited to fulfill the needs of a grossly underserved segment of the marketplace. At a time when the words "green energy" are on everyone's lips, we are introducing a suite of products that are environmentally friendly in the extreme, completely non-polluting in their operation and designed for durability and long operational life. There is a great demand today in the marketplace for compact, user-friendly manpowered chargers for portable electronics devices to ensure their operation in circumstances in which conventional power sources are not accessible. We are ready to meet that demand with a line of manpowered chargers that will lead the industry in ergonomics, economy and power output relative to input effort.
Briefly, our product line includes two models of the YoGen®, a slim pocket sized charger, operated by a convenient pull cord, for use with cell phones and like sized devices; the YoGen MaxTM, a larger yet compact fold-up foot driven charger with power sufficient for laptop computers; and the recently prototyped YoGen BatTM, designed to replace a conventional cell phone battery with a combination battery and pull cord powered micro-generator, which eliminates the need for a stand alone charger.
The company's progress in recent months has been nothing short of exciting. We have advanced with the development of the YoGen® to the point where we will be initiating mass production. The first pilot run of 100 units is scheduled for March 11, 2009, with the start-up of full mass production scheduled for April 9, 2009. We have finalized the design of the YoGen MaxTM and will soon be initiating the process to prepare that product for mass production, all the while, additionally continuing to work aggressively to finalize the design of the YoGen BatTM.
The company is moving forward swiftly in the areas of marketing and sales as well. In 2008, we executed an agreement with Al-Sadeef Trading Company in Jordan to handle distribution of our products in the Middle East, in which they have agreed to purchase 300,000 ($3,000,000) YoGen®s per year. We are currently in negotiations with substantial distribution firms for other territories and are confident that several additional agreements will be finalized in the very near future.
Looking further ahead, we will be executing a marketing plan that will include efforts in the United States and Canada. The market opportunities for our product are enormous, both in developed and relatively undeveloped regions of the world, and, be assured, we intend to leave no stone unturned in our efforts to take advantage of them.
I have good reason to believe, with the reasonable success of our in-progress marketing discussions, that Easy Energy's revenues for 2009 could reach $10,000,000 with resulting earnings of $3,000,000 or better.
2009 promises to be a banner year for Easy Energy, marked by very substantial progress toward fulfilling the goals I mentioned in the foregoing. If you have not viewed our website, I encourage you to inform yourself by doing that and also by viewing our SEC filings. We expect to be making progress reports on a regular basis in the near future, so please be alert for upcoming news releases, links to which, you will find posted on our website.
On behalf of the management and all employees of Easy Energy, I wish to express appreciation for your interest and investment in our company and look forward to being able to communicate more successes to you as we proceed into what will be an event-filled year ahead.

We're due for some updates here.
Nice board here guys. PURO and ESYE are two that have mega potential for 2009.
Our device YoGen® is a slim pocket-size hand-powered electric charger driven by repeated pulling a cord in a similar to Yo-Yo string. While the self-returning cord is repeatedly pulled by the user, an internal alternator spins continuously, and thereby generates power allowing for recharging the batteries used by any PDA and especially cell-phone while the user can keep using them, e.g. `staying on talking`..
Since human-power source is actually unlimited and permanently available- no additional batteries to dispose of or extra weight to carry.
YoGen® is based on a unique extremely slim patented high-efficiency "on-board" alternator integrated with an energy-saving electronic stabilizer allowing for a palm-sized device which provides a quick recharge for any device adapted for charging from 5VDC chargers: cell-phones, GPS, iPOD, MP3, MP4, etc.
The second device we are developing, YoGen MaxT (coming in soon) will provide enough power for laptops and their accessories, professional camcorders, etc. Unlike YoGenT it will be driven by the user's foot in order to provide a long charging without body weariness and interference with main user work.
Virtually everyone these days is mobile: everyone carries at least one battery-powered device, and often they have a bag-full of these power-hungry devices.
One out of two North Americans carries a cell-phone. MP3 player, iPOD and similar music systems are owned and used by virtually everyone under 40. Game decks, electronic toys and organizers are everywhere and many of us carry laptops and equipment ranging from GPS units to pocket camcorders. Keeping all these batteries fully charged and conditioned presents a real problem. They all use a lot of energy, depleting batteries rapidly. Often the battery dies and the charger is at home or in the office or there is no AC outlet available. Many people try to make do with a handful of ordinary AA and AAA batteries.
For most cell-phone users, the only way of charging their battery is through the cell-phone itself. The units are not meant to be routinely opened for battery exchange which is usually the case with PDAs and camcorders etc.
For millions of laptop users, a spare battery is simply too much extra weight and often gets left behind in the office or hotel. For some of the other types of gadgets, batteries may not be replaceable or accessible to the user without disassembling the device. Even if it was practical, this would void any product warranty.
Now there are new devices - chargers that are small and light enough and can handle all devices that is to recharge low batteries in any situation.
Size: 55 mm x 90 mm, 23 mm thick (2.1" x 3.5", 0.9" thick)
Max power: 5 W typically (up to 6 W)
Electric output: built-in mini-USB. Supplied with a set of flexible cables terminated by connector adaptors for most popular cell-phones and other hand-held electrical devices.
Built-in 650 mAh lithium-ion back-up battery.
A State-Of-Charge internal battery indicator.
A LED indicator showing actual charging the electronic device being connected to.
A slider switch alternating between forced and regular charging mode
Rugged and tough enough to withstand constant use.
At this stage we are only taking orders for the YoGen® as well as from distributors and wholesale purchasers. If you are interested in retailing YoGen®, please contact us at sales@easy-energy.biz for details.
Most laptop chargers are rather bulky and huge, even with the strides we’ve taken in the world of miniaturization these days. Easy Energy aims to go against the grain with its Yogen Max foldable laptop charger which is able to charge gasping laptops without having to depend on any external power source. Sounds pretty crazy, considering how they’re not going to depend on solar power either. Check out what Guy Ofir, Chief Executive Officer of Easy Energy has to say, “This unique product will allow for the complete charging of a laptop anywhere in the world, inside or outside, wired or not.” Yogen Max is tipped to be released sometime next year. I myself am pretty interested to see how the Yogen Max will pan out when it is finally available to the masses. Guess you’ll have pretty solid calf muscles once you’re done juicing up your laptop with this.

Welcome back IH. Enjoyed yourself I hope.
Me too DFB....waiting for the A/S reduction to light a fire under this one.
Good morning all.
Morning money. Would be nice if we did.
Morning people.
Good close.
Easy Energy Yogen Max foldable, man-powered laptop charger prototype complete
by Laura June, posted Dec 4th 2008 at 2:57PM
Charging your laptop could start to feel a lot more like work in the near future, if the folks at Easy Energy have it their way. They've just completed a protoype for the Yogen Max laptop charger, and though details are particularly spartan about the actual workings of the device, as you can see from the mock-up, it's going to involve a human foot pumping juice directly into your laptop. Unlike some other devices we've seen, the Yogen Max has no external battery, plus it's way more foldable and boasts a totally awesome font. The spokesperson from Easy Energy says they hope to bring the product to the consumer market sometime in 2009. If that girl in the background of the photo is any indication of how outlandishly fun the human-powered charger is to use, we sure hope it's available soon.
