San Francisco-Based Online Cell Phone Retailer Responds to Governor Jerry Brown's First Executive Order by Offering a Special Discount to California State Employees Who Will Be Losing Their Work Issued Cell Phones Later This Year

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 13, 2011

LetsTalk, a San Francisco-based online retailer of cell phones, wireless devices and service plans, is responding to Governor Jerry Brown's first executive order by offering a special discount to the 48,000 California state employees who will be losing their work issued cell phones later this year.

As detailed in a press release issued on January 11, 2011, Governor Jerry Brown expects to save $20 million a year by collecting 48,000 government-paid cell phones currently in use by June 1, 2011. "The state now pays for 96,000 cell phones, one for 40 percent of all state employees. He estimated that the state will save at least $20 million a year by cutting cell phone usage in half," the press release noted.

In response to these cost cutting measures, LetsTalk.com is offering California government employees $25 off the purchase of a new cell phone from its website. This discount can be applied in addition to any existing specials already available on the LetsTalk.com website at the time of purchase.

"As a California-based company we feel obligated to help our great state's economy recover, " said Delly Tamer, CEO of LetsTalk.com "If we can help just one hard working employee of California stay connected for less, then we are happy to be doing our part."

This limited time offer is valid for even the highest-end, most sought after smartphones such as Sprint's HTC EVO 4G, AT&T's BlackBerry Torch, Verizon's DROID X by Motorola, and myTouch 4G from T-Mobile. The company's selection of prepaid phones is excluded from this offer.
