GoSolarUSA Funds the Development of PREEcharge for iPAD and Kindle

GoSolarUSA (Pink Sheets: GSLO) announced today that management has inked another groundbreaking deal with PREE Corp to configure its proprietary PREEcharge technology for use with the iPAD and Kindle. On Monday, GSLO President Tyson Rohde met with the PREE team to discuss the patent application, development and future capital needs for the commercialization of PREEcharge technology. By Friday they had reached another deal.

“I was blown away by the potential of this new technology,” stated Tyson Rohde, President of GoSolarUSA. “The engineers and business development team at PREE are doing something profound, and I think people will understand its value fast.”

The PREEcharge technology captures electrons from LAN and Bluetooth waves and converts it into power to recharge batteries for wireless devices. The technology also incorporates a small solar panel to augment the charge with solar energy. To date, the entire product development has been focused on configuration for use with smaller wireless devices such as Apple’s (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone, Google’s (NASDAQ: GOOG) Android, and Research in Motion’s (NASDAQ: RIMM) BlackBerry. Now with the funding from GoSolarUSA, PREE will be able to accelerate the development of the PREEcharge for use with wireless PC tablets.

“Why are the iPAD, Kindle and other PC tablets ideal for the PREEcharge?” asked Mr. Rohde. “The answer is simple,” he continued. “The surface area of an iPhone is 10.39 square inches, and the surface area of an iPAD is 71.41 square inches. More surface area means bigger circuit boards, more antennas for receiving wireless signals, and ultimately a lot more power. In fact, if this proportion holds, the PREEcharge could have the potential to generate seven times more power for the iPAD than it makes for the iPhone,” he concluded.

According to Apple, users can run the iPAD for up to 10 hours while surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching videos, or listening to music. With the PREEcharge technology, it is expected that battery life can be substantially increased to meet the high power needs of today’s tablet PC users.

The wireless tablet PC market is expected to grow at alarming rates in the coming years. While 305.8 million units shipped worldwide in 2009, Gartner forecasts 2010 shipments to reach 366.1 million units, with spending reaching $245 billion — an increase of 12.1 percent over 2009 spending.

Further, the tablet PC space, rejuvenated by the Jan. 27 introduction of the Apple iPad, is being reconsidered by many, according to Gartner, and 2010 could see shipments of up to 10.5 million “tablets and next-generation tablet devices” worldwide. Technology researcher, Gartner, delivers technology research to global technology business leaders to make informed decisions on key initiatives.
