LOS ANGELES & WASHINGTON--Oct. 4, 2005-- Online Comparison Shopping Pioneer
Provides One-Stop Shop For Easy Comparison of The Best Cell Plans, Phones and
Accessories From a Variety of Online Sellers
PriceGrabber.com, a leader in online comparison shopping announces the launch
of the Cell Phones, Plans & Accessories Channel. This new service will allow
shoppers to easily find and compare cell phones, and plans from multiple carriers
and different resellers based on their preferences for monthly minutes, monthly
cost and/or available phones.
PriceGrabber's latest comparison shopping service gives the shopper the ability
to compare options by selecting their desired criteria. Based on their order of
preferences, consumers may start from a particular phone, a set of phone features,
a specific carrier, or a plan with a certain number of minutes. Consumers can
easily navigate the selections and follow a step-by-step process to shop and compare
phones, carriers, the different monthly plans available, and price. For instance,
a shopper can first select a price range for monthly service, and then compare
a list of carriers and their availability at that price. Next, the shopper can
specify selections including national or local coverage, select from a range of
plan minutes, and further pare down the list and examine the cell phone options
from each carrier. As with all PriceGrabber product and service channels, clearly
categorized results assist in presenting a complete set of cell phone, accessory
and plan options.
"Our new service for comparing cell phones, plans and accessories is a very innovative
way to allow consumers to easily evaluate their options when shopping for cell
phones and plans," said PriceGrabber President and CEO Kamran Pourzanjani. "In
such a competitive and fast moving sector, the ability to find information on
cell phone hardware, plans, and prices all aggregated in one convenient location
is invaluable. Consumers can perform a host of enquiries on our new service, such
as learning about exciting new phones, comparing in an easy side-by-side format
many aspects of their carrier and rate plan options, reading reviews from other
consumers, and checking pricing and special offers from a number of merchants.
This service truly simplifies the overall cell phone shopping experience for consumers."
PriceGrabber provides this solution for comparison shopping for the cellular
services market in part by working with industry leading online wireless phone
and service plan provider, InPhonic, Inc. (Nasdaq:INPC). The service provides
savvy cell shoppers with a secure online platform to help find carrier plans,
wireless phones, and corresponding accessories with a click of a mouse.
"We are excited to support PriceGrabber's latest channel," said David A. Steinberg,
Chairman and CEO of InPhonic, Inc. "PriceGrabber is breaking new ground in offering
a complete cellular product and service category on their site for consumers to
research and find the best deals. This new channel will be a great shopping experience
for PriceGrabber's tech savvy consumer who likes to research and compare before
purchasing."
