Wirefly Releases the Five Biggest Cell Phone Trends of 2005 and Outlines Trend Predictions for 2006

Wirefly (www.wirefly.com), an online leader in one-stop
comparison shopping for cell phones and wireless phone plans, today
released a list of the five trends that had the biggest impact on cell
phone sales in 2005 and trend predictions for 2006.
   "The hottest thing in cell phones last year was, without a doubt,
the popularity of the Motorola RAZR. Thin was definitely in -- the
RAZR was Wirefly's #1 best seller by a bigger margin than held by any
phone previously," said Brian Westrick, President of Wirefly.
   In 2005, the five most popular trends driving cell phone purchases
at Wirefly.com were:

    1.  Motorola RAZR: This ultra-thin phone -- available from
        Cingular, T-Mobile, Alltel and now Verizon Wireless -- struck
        the right chord with consumers who wanted their phones to make
        a statement. The Motorola RAZR continues to be a high-tech
        status symbol.

    2.  Smartphones: Phones that include operating systems and popular
        software applications made mobile computing easier and more
        convenient for business professionals, who no longer needed to
        carry around a full-featured laptop to be productive.

    3.  3G technology: The arrival of a variety of third-generation
        phones boasting high-speed data downloads is raising the
        expectation today's consumers have of wireless handsets. Not
        just for talking, many cell phones are portable entertainment
        centers that include multimedia messaging, music downloads,
        mobile TV, gaming, and much more.

    4.  Keyboard phones: With data messaging like email and SMS
        becoming a more significant part of cell phone use, many
        consumers flocked toward the convenience of QWERTY keyboards
        integrated into their mobile devices. T-Mobile's Sidekick
        popularized the QWERTY keyboard phone among younger consumers
        as well.

    5.  Camcorder/ video phones: Manufacturers took the popular camera
        phone concept and expanded it to include not only megapixel
        resolution, but also video capture, which allowed users to
        take and send video clips to friends and family. Video phones
        were affordable enough to penetrate the mainstream very
        quickly.

   Wirefly offers a more complete inventory of cell phone devices and
a broader selection of carrier rate plans than traditional retail
stores are able to offer. This gives customers a real choice in
selecting the phone and plan that is best for them.
   "As the largest online activations agent for all major carriers,
Wirefly has a unique view of the trends driving our industry, and we
predict continued popularity of the things that made 2005 a remarkable
year. But ours is a very dynamic market and this coming year is going
to see a new set of trends driving people to switch or upgrade their
cell phones and plans," said Wirefly's Westrick.
   Wirefly predicts big trends for 2006 are going to include:

    1.  Music and mobile TV phones;

    2.  A bigger selection of smartphones with more robust operating
        systems;

    3.  Phones designed for children;

    4.  Expanded GPS services; and,

    5.  Increased comfort ordering services online and expansion of
        market share by authorized online agents such as Wirefly.
