TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 1, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- FTS Wireless, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FTS Group, Inc. (OTCBB:FLIP), an operator of retail wireless locations that market and sell next-generation wireless products and services, and operates Wi-Fi Hot Spots, today announced record sales of new Cingular Wireless products and services for the month of January.
FTS CEO Scott Gallagher commented, "Cingular Wireless exited 2004 with America's largest subscriber base, now nearing 50 million cellular users. They successfully launched a national marketing campaign supported by new cutting edge handsets like Motorola's Razor video/camera phone. We believe these factors along with improved coverage and rate plans helped fuel sequential growth of Cingular Products and services by more then 100% during January." Gallagher went on to say, "We expect Cingular based revenue levels will continue to experience high growth rates throughout 2005 as we add new revenue channels such as a call center and wireless portal."
