Cellular Providers are Being Put on Notice

Cellular providers are continually telling us that they have the best plans for us. The plans are new and improved to give us just what we need… at an excessive cost. The latest smartphone has the most “amazing” new features… but they aren’t innovative at all. NEBI.MOBI is the most cost-effective, innovative service and smartphone to ever hit the market. Cell phone providers think they have a lock on the services, but NEBI.MOBI, with your help, is going to show them how it’s really done.

As Seen On

     

     

     


What Cellular Telephone Services Don’t Tell You—AKA The Deception

Telephone data is transformed from analog to digital content. All cell phone plans indicate a separation between talking minutes, number of text messages, and amount of data use. These are actually all the same service, provided the same way. By separating them and limiting amounts of each one for different packages, they deceive consumers into believing that different rates should apply to talk, text, and data. Why are we paying three different rates with different limitations for the same thing? All of these services are digitally provided. They should all be unlimited at one low price. This is a sales gimmick and it locks customers into two year contracts and fees for overages that are outrageous. 

No More Hype, Just Honesty and Innovation

We need to move away from the hype and misleading information of cellular providers and their famous two year contracts and three prices for the same service. Instead of depending on cellular network signals, at NEBI.MOBI we are using Wi-Fi based network signals and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technologies to deliver superior service without the inflated price tag. These technologies are capable of supporting talk, text, and data – which is really all just data. This will bring smartphones to an entirely new level of capability and accessibility. That’s right, innovation in the mobile industry. This is a rare gem.

Can I use VOIP?

VOIP technology has become increasingly efficient. Our codecs secure encrypted connections and maintain lightning-fast data transfer speed. Smartphone designs, whether you consider ours or your current phone, have advanced to the point of being able to support VOIP apps reliably.

Is Wi-Fi Up to the Challenge?

Wi-Fi is not controlled by government agencies and does not incur huge government-related fees and taxes. Wi-Fi signals have increased in capability and availability to a point that makes it faster and easier to access from a growing number of sources every day. We believe that free public Wi-Fi access should be available in every city. Free public access should be provided by each city’s leaders as a show of understanding of the importance of communication and connection in today’s world. One of our goals with funding of NEBI.MOBI is to increase advocacy nationwide for free public Wi-Fi in entire cities. Until we fully succeed, you can supplement your Wi-Fi access points through data-only cellular plans for achieving a wider coverage area, and still enjoy substantial savings compared to your traditional smartphone bills. You deserve to be able to connect wherever you are, without having to search for a free hotspot or pay a cellular service for data usage.

Meet EVE 008—She’s Gorgeous and Highly Capable

EVE 008 is our remarkable touchscreen smartphone. It actually has a replaceable battery that will eliminate the need for bulky charging cases or a tangle of charging cords and panicked searches for places to charge your phone. Two phone lines can be combined on one device by using two SIM card services simultaneously, eliminating the need for a work and home cell phone, lightening the load in your purse or pocket. An SD slot allows for expansion and transfer of data without dealing with additional technology or apps. Data is saved even if the phone is injured. And EVE 008 doesn’t carry the price tag of smartphones with even half of her capability. That doesn’t even begin to describe what EVE 008 can do for you.

EVE 008’s specs:

  • Dual SIM Card (1 Standard, 1 Micro) 
  • Android 4.2.2 
  • Quad-core 1.3 GHz Processor 
  • RAM 1GB 
  • Internal Storage 4GB 
  • SD Card slot for 32GB storage expansion 
  • FM Radio 
  • A-GPS 
  • Bluetooth 4.0 
  • Wi-Fi and mobile AP 
  • IPS bright screen, 4.5 inch multi-touch 
  • Ultra-slim body, 0.346 inch thin 
  • Lithium swappable battery, 2000 mAh 
  • Software supported 8MP camera with LED flash light 
  • Software supported 2MP front facing camera 
  • Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 Mhz) for World-Wide compatibility 
  • 4G network data speeds (i.e. T-Mobile, AT&T, Metro PCS and more for US)
  • Special fast charger, USB cable, and noise canceling headphones are included

CHOICE: When is the Last Time You Were REALLY Given a Choice?

NEBI.MOBI services allow you to use EVE 008 or your own smartphone. You get to choose. This is real choice. No contracts attached. We refuse to impose limits like cell providers.

The Science and More

Cellular networks, Wi-Fi, VoIP, expanding network infrastructures, GSM, codecs, telecom providers… It can be overwhelming. We have done the research, studied the options, explored the field, experimented, and applied the science. We have designed and manufactured a value-oriented smartphone capable of operating via Wi-Fi or current mobile carriers. Our Android OS has been boosted for higher power efficiency. We have submitted for trademarks, secured FCC license approvals, negotiated service contracts, and coded and test our apps and service architecture. 

As we begin, we will need a lot of subscribers with current Wi-Fi optimized VOIP devices to help us drive down the wholesale minutes pricing from telecom servers. We want to make sure that we can support the greatest number of customers with optimal bandwidth for a positive user experience. 

Another use of funds will be the deployment of free public Wi-Fi coverage. We want to expand the availability to more places so that everyone, whether they use our service or not, has access to free public Wi-Fi. 

Reasons You May Not Have Considered that Might Make You Go Hmmm….

This device and network has more value than you may think. With our system:

  • Teens cannot text and drive as they move through active Wi-Fi zones
  • You can travel worldwide and avoid roaming charges once our Wi-Fi based phone service is live
  • You can resell your old expensive cell phone at near retail and use one that’s even better - Pocket the extra savings from the resale
  • The two SIM card strategy allows you to carry one phone for two lines
  • No contracts
  • No dragging around a separate charger with our quick-swap battery
  • You can let your young child play games on EVE 008, which you surely shouldn’t do with a $600-$800 smartphone
  • SD card slot for expansion and easy transfer of data – no technical assistance or fancy programs needed
  • Tons of Android Apps available for use with EVE 008
  • Skype and Wi-Fi chat applications allow communications with family and friends around the world
  • EVE 008 can serve as a low cost temporary or permanent replacement phone if your current smartphone is stolen or broken 
  • NEBI.MOBI can easily replace home phone service as a much lower cost option
  • Regardless from reaching to our funding goal, anyone who donates $175 will receive EVE 008 with our thanks - No tax, no shipping, no handling charges! What a great value!
  • As soon as we have the funding and are ready to activate NEBI.MOBI service, our backers will pay only $60/YEAR for the unlimited mobile phone service
  • EVE 008 is totally hot—have you seen her pics?

Innovation and the New Era of Smartphones Needs You

My wife and I believe in innovation. We believe in this project. We have invested time and money into establishing as much as we can and now we need help to get this project off the ground and let it fly. Your donation will be a part of a new era of smartphone services. The funds raised will be used to launch the platform, acquire users, and drive down the price of our devices and services. Higher volume equals lower costs to consumers. We need to pay for high-end telecom servers to ensure proper levels of bandwidth for the best experience for our customers. Funds will also help us deploy our plans for increased free Wi-Fi coverage. 

This is a REVOLUTION

Be a REBEL—Revolutionary Evolution Backer for Escape from Limitations. Escape from the constraints of the same old mobile delivery systems that have been around forever. They keep charging more because they think we are trapped. It’s time to show them that the Innovation Revolution has started and you are a part of it. How many times does an opportunity like this present itself? In this industry, not very often. In fact, almost never. Be a REBEL and join the revolution. It’s like the Boston Tea Party for the 21st century.

Can I Really Make a Difference and What’s in it for Me Besides Awesome REBEL status?

To be a part of NEBI.MOBI, you can do two things. First, you can spread the word. Tell people about us. Tell them what we are doing. Show them the EVE 008 specs and cool features. See how your friends and connections feel about freedom from cellular carriers and expensive plans and devices. Link to our campaign. Use your social media to help us educate people about our project. Tell them to be a REBEL! Encourage people to unchain themselves from the cellular carriers who hold them captive! They take your business for granted believing you have no alternative. BUT YOU DO. We need you to help us get this message out! Help the Revolution grow. Add to our REBELs!

Second, you can make a monetary contribution to help us finish up funding the project. We’ve done a lot on our own, but we still need some help. As for you, there are some really awesome perks and rewards for making donations. T-shirts, parties, free smartphones, starring in our advertising, and naming our next mobile device model are up for grabs along with other thank you gifts. In fact, the first 50 backers at the $149 level will receive an EVE 008 with our thanks! The best reward will be your freedom from cellular providers. Let’s face it, we’re all sick of their manipulations. 

If we cannot reach our goal on Indiegogo, it will be impossible for us to secure competitive pricing from potential vendors in a timely manner. If we can reach our goal, we will be able to pass along cost savings to our customers. We want to provide you with unlimited mobile service for $60 per year or less, and an affordable, efficient, optimized mobile device for the lowest possible cost to you without requiring any contracts.

This is the first REAL innovation in the mobile industry and you can be a part of it. Claim your status as a founder of the new wave. How cool is that?

Achievement of our goal will allow us to move to our Stretch Goals, including specialized EVE 008 cases and extra batteries. 


Yes, this is an ambitious target for us, but it is very possible to hit with your support. Reaching these levels of a volume reduces our manufacturing cost per device, and we would like pass such savings to you by including a beautiful, custom fit, see-through case for protecting your smartphone… 

Successfully funding this much means that we now reached to a production volume that makes economically feasible to manufacture our smartphones in additional colors without an extra cost to our backers. Now, you can select what color you would like for yourself…


Wow, this is like a dream number for us. This amount of a funding will also allow us to take advantage of some serious economies of scale. We will be able to send you an extra battery with each EVE 008 device, too… Thank you a million times… 

     

If I Buy an EVE 008, What’s Next?

EVE 008 has already met all of the regulatory approvals necessary for entering the manufacturing process. When our funding rises, we will reach a point of better economic feasibility for manufacturing volumes. At that point, we can focus our energy on pairing this amazing value device with its complementing mobile phone service. 

EVE 008 will arrive ready-to-use with any GSM mobile carrier service. We are continuing to work on NEBI.MOBI mobile phone service as the funding increases. When our backers support us in a way that allows a reasonable cost decrease for the provision of the service, it will be activated. At that time, we will alert you that the system is ready to add your $60 per year unlimited mobile service plan.

Who Are You, Anyway?

I am Nebi Cem Erdogan, and with my wife Eve, we are completely dedicated to this project. I have studied at Columbia University and MIT to explore economics, strategy, and innovation management. I have worked at several Fortune 500 companies. I am passionate about innovation and entrepreneurship. We are ready to take on whatever challenges come with our commitment to the NEBI.MOBI project.

Please become a part of our plan to make smartphone services fairly priced and available to more people. Be a part of innovation. Be someone who creates change. Be a REBEL And let’s just teach those cellular providers a lesson or two while we’re at it.
