AirTouch Communications Is Named "Stock of the Year 2012" by the KonLin Letter
NEWPORT BEACH, CA, Jan 19, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
AirTouch Communications, Inc. (OTCBB: ATCH) (www.airtouchinc.com),
which designs and markets wireless telecommunications devices, today
announced that it has been named "Stock of the Year 2012" by the
KonLin Letter investment report. A copy of the "Stock of the Year"
article is available by calling 1-631-744-8536.
In the report, KonLin publisher Konrad Kuhn noted that AirTouch has
positioned itself to respond to the surging, worldwide demand for
wireless communications and wireless substitution for landlines in
the U.S. and internationally.
AirTouch develops and markets patented telecommunication devices
capable of converging voice, data, video, security, entertainment and
other advanced communication services from various service providers
on one piece of hardware over the cellular network. The company has
seven U.S. patents (three approved and four pending) for its unique
combination of cordless telephone technology and wireless signal
amplification, which enables consumers and businesses to access
voice, data and other applications and services over the cellular
wireless network in areas that might challenge a typical mobile
cellular phone.
The AirTouch X1500 HomeConneX wireless phone is certified to be used
on Verizon Wireless 3G networks, Kuhn noted. The product allows
customers and small businesses to "cut the cord" to their landline
service providers for both voice and data, while retaining excellent
phone sound quality and full data services.
Kuhn pointed out that the AirTouch telephone and data unit operates
at up to 10 times the signal strength of a handheld mobile phone
while dramatically reducing the amount of microwave radiation to
human tissue.
In addition to an agreement to distribute its products through the
Verizon Wireless independent distributor network, Kuhn noted that
AirTouch recently signed a long-term 4G- LTE wholesale agreement with
LightSquared, the nation's first wholesale-only, integrated 4G-LTE
wireless broadband and satellite network. Under the agreement,
LightSquared would provide the spectrum on a wholesale basis to
AirTouch. This is a key step in AirTouch's plan to become a Mobile
Virtual Network Operator.
"In order to meet the expected international growth in countries
where a large number of rural residents will not receive landline
coverage in the foreseeable future due to cost and geography, the
company has established a joint venture with a major Chinese
electronics distribution company. The joint venture, fully registered
by the Chinese government, is known as AirTouch China," stated Kuhn.
Kuhn noted that AirTouch China will be able to obtain purchase orders
from Chinese carriers, including China Mobile, China Telecom and
China Unicom. AirTouch products such as the HomeConneX X2000 are
ready to target the millions of rural Chinese with limited or no
access to voice, Internet, entertainment and other advanced
communication services due to the absence of landlines.
With regard to the size of the potential market for AirTouch, Kuhn
noted that the World Health Organization estimates that more than 2
billion people in the BRIC nations (Brazil, Russia, India and China)
and N-11, or Next-11 countries, are expected to move into the income
bracket over the next five that will be demanding wireless voice,
Internet and entertainment services, but will continue to have scarce
landline coverage.
