Hop-on 1883Hop-on, a cell phone manufacturer perhaps best known for developing disposable mobiles, is introducing a new handset with GPS abilities. The Hop-on 1883 has no set price announced as of yet.

The Hop-on 1883 integrates a SiRF Starlll GPS chipset for helping you get around town. It’s otherwise a rather regular tri-band GSM style mobile in a candy bar design. The 1883 sports a 2.8-inch touchscreen display which is full color and a two-megapixel digital camera for photos and video recording. Bluetooth 2.0 support is also included.

Those wondering about battery life will find the 1883 is rated with a talk time up to eight hours and a standby time of up to 500 hours. No specific word on which carriers have or will have this phone in stock, but Hop-on says it is available in “America, Europe and emerging markets alike.”
