How Peek Saves You $$$

Not everyone can be as lucky as 23-yr old rancher Neal Wanless of South Dakota. The reality is you work hard for your money. So hard for it, honey.

So if you’re like most of America, it pains you to think about expensive cell phone contracts and inevitable overages you’re billed if you accidentally go beyond your 1000 minutes this, 8 kilobyes of that, or forget to set up your favorite 5’s (whatever that means!).

But who can live without a cell phone these days. Or worse, who could live without text messaging and email?

Enter Peek: Simply email & texting.

Peekonomics 101 states that no matter what mobile provider you’re currently with, getting a Peek mobile email device will save you serious dough on texting & data plans.
- Most providers charge $30 or more per month just for texting.
- The clever Peek does unlimited texting and email for just $19.95 per month ($15 if you pay for the year upfront).

Peek on WSJ.com

We’re happy to see Peek featured in today’s “What’s New” tech article on WSJ.com. The Journal highlights Peek as pioneer in the inexpensive, single function electronic device category — a notable movement away from multi-functional, everything-but-the-kitchen-sink gadgets. By focusing on doing just one thing really well (mobile email) and making it affordable & easy-to-use, the Peek has garnered the attention of consumers and venture-capital investors alike.

Just to note, The Journal cites Peek at a “portable” 4 by 7 inches in size! Rest assured, we haven’t gone and Kindle-sized the Peek. It’s still a pocket-friendly 4 by 3 inches and dainty 3.8 ounces.

A Practical Gift for Graduation

Graduation season is upon us! Thousands of bright-eyed, bushy-tailed high school and college seniors will soon march down the aisle to accept their diplomas, cum laudes and pats on the back.

Besides the standard hug and congratulatory wishes, these exemplary scholars will be expecting amazing graduation gifts (they’ve earned them after all!).

If you can’t afford to give your favorite graduate a brand new Prius, trip to Europe, or iPod Touch, may we suggest a practical, stylish and affordable alternative?

3-peeksPeek.
Unlimited mobile email & texting for the generation that always needs to be connected.

Why it’s the best graduation present, ever:

  • Gives job seeking grads a competitive edge, because they receive job postings first.
  • Helps college-bound grads keep in touch with Mom (or, helps Mom keep tabs on them!).
  • Super affordable on a student budget at $19.95/mo. Plus, it’s pay-as-you-go (no contract).

Buy a Peek now or check one out in-person at select Target and Radio Shack stores.

Bikes and Peek - On the road with a Peek Pronto

ghost_fixed_gear_bicycle

I admit it. I’m a an avid cyclist and while reviewing the intriguing statistics of the web traffic on our community boards I saw a new site appear.  It’s a blog from a fellow new Peekster Kent. Kent’s Bike blog has a feature on Peek Pronto. Cyclist’s like gadgets too; you should see the helmet video cam to capture tragic falls and GPS systems for when you’re lost. Kent, while attempting to bore most of his readers, convinced enough to fly by Peek to check us out.  Thanks Kent for the props. You understand our little Peek gizmo and thanks for liking the simple aspect like a fixed wheel bicycle.  Simple is why we are here.

“The best thing about Peek’s design…”

We have a Peekster sitting in the office with us here, telling us why she loves her Peek. She uses her Peek at work, mainly. She’s on her feet all day working in a big retail store here in New York. Running around, folding, a few quick breaks all day and then she gets home late.

Her Peek? It’s must-have on every break of course. But even better, she keeps it in her pocket all day long while she works. They are not allowed to carry phones! “If they see a little bump in your pocket, they tell you to put it away.”

But the Peek? “It’s so flat and thin that nobody minds!”

Love it!
