Hop-on HOP1900 Graffiti disposable cellphoneWho would ever think of throwing away their precious mobile phone? Well, definitely not us. But, if we were dealing drugs or smuggling illegal internationals across US borders, we might consider picking up couple of these Hop-on HOP1900 Graffiti disposable mobile phones.

As you may have already guessed, this display-less cellphone is marketed as a “disposable” handset, and after releasing a WinMo smartphone, Hop-on has decided to take a step backwards and resurrect this no-frills mobile phone. The Hop-on HOP1900 Graffiti will be sold in drug and convenience stores through Hop-on’s subsidiary, Graffiti Wireless. If you’ve got $50, you can put a disposable mobile phone in your pocket.

And, as a bonus, each Hop-on Graffiti comes with a toll-free phone number – perfect for those times when those aforementioned illegal internationals need to contact you in order to get smuggled into the US.
