Beeptool response...
Humanity-BeepTool $1 Smartphone,Q2-2018
Humanity-BeepTool Feature Payment Phone. The Game Changer ,Q2-2018
BeepTool-SAS Narrowband communication WiFi Hotspot Modem, Q3,2018
which one are u wanting to order?
And you must be qualify to place an order for the $1 smartphone
one Dollar smartphone we are take order now from end users who are rural area and who are qualify for it and that is actually going to be around in Nigeria soon
for the Micro payment phone also
for the SAS terminal for the Wifi hotspot, the one for test will be available sooner than what I said
but we are taken order in Advance already from communities for BeepTool-SAS Narrowband communication WiFi Hotspot Modem
And also from Govt who also supporting to pay for the terminal as part of their rural area communications project.
As to how far 'away and details you may want to reach out to SAS. but we are all busy and working hard to get the ball rolling already
The Sat phone will work everywhere in the world

but for us we are only focused on Africa
Humanity-BeepTool $50 Satellite Phone
Everyone in Africa will be able to access this
but for Humanity-BeepTool $1 Smartphone you have to be qualify to access it
because like Humanity-BeepTool $1 Smartphone NGO, GOVT etc are sponsoring the real cost
And hence that is is for rural people and also people who are low income earns
but for the Humanity-BeepTool $50 Satellite Phone its open to everyone to acquire one and hookup to the network
with 1 to 2 screen fully one partners apps
etc
And services revenue are shared between partners
because Humanity-BeepTool $1 SmartPhone and Humanity-BeepTool $50 Satellite Phone are going to go out as lease to end users for 18 -24
the real cost of the $1 is around 50 USD to land in Africa
for the Satelites is around 115 USD

115 usd ...thats not bad

so we are partnering banks, Govt, NGO and business and individuals who sponsors the devices
and for some the let Go and for some we will share revenue
based on the leasing model the real cost of device after leasing will be recouped withing 2 to 4 months and rest is revenue
and profits
so we are really working State and Local Govt and communications for all, and all listen and are ready for it because its a problem solver
like the SAS terminal that can provide up 15 to 35 devices wifi same time are are marketing to villages are community so it will be use as rural access to all
so need like 10 to 100 for coverages etc
the model is clear and road map is clear to us all
we are just waiting after our field trails to start
the 3D will at least service our users for financial transfer while the main deployment from SAS come onboard
BeepTool-SAS Narrowband communication WiFi Hotspot Modem, is for 300 USD one time payments
like our team told us in some locality they are even donating money to make sure they are not left out
so we are raising funding from as much places as we can to deploy the terminals as that is main thing our coverage determine how much will make
hahaah for us in Africa must at time people have to clmb a mountain to talk if at all. and some other place no cellular at all1
like in one of the Oil state due to the creek area tradtional GSM operators cannot place towers
so for us this good one for us
since our Laptop Size modem can be place anywhere for them to connect
cameo
does the modem run on solar or need to be connected to the elect grid
BeepTool
we ask for it
so it comes with solar
