Samsung recently published a web site containing information about the m340 clamshell for Virgin Mobile. The m340 Mantra has a VGA camera, Bluetooth, dual-displays and basic messaging features. Virgin Mobile is offering the m340 for $60. It is available via the Virgin Mobile USA web site.
The stylish Samsung Mantra is a flip phone that has everything you need to keep in touch, such as text messaging, instant messaging and email, Bluetooth , English and Spanish menus and Web browser. Check out the Mantra’s pic below and tell us what you think of it.
Now Virgin Mobile USA is making it cheaper for people to keep in touch with family while on the go. The new flexible new contract rates offer customers more postpaid plans to choose from. Starting June 10, Virgin Mobile will introduce 3 new plans. The $175/month plans gives 4000 shared anytime minutes, including unlimited messaging and data services.
The $50 A La Carte plan includes 600 minutes shared minutes with unlimited mobile-to-mobile minutes. An additional 200 shared minutes are added to the current $100/month A La Carte plan. This entire suite of Virgin Mobile USA plans also include unlimited night and weekend minutes, high-speed 3G mobile Web access and zero domestic roaming or long distance charges. Users can also easily connect to Facebook, MyPix and GPS-enabled Google Maps with any of these packages.
Many of these so-called unlimited consumer plans usually end up costing quite a bit, when calculated with final taxes and so on. But now, Boost Mobile offers customers a savings of more than $240 a year with its flat-rate prepaid plan, which offers unlimited nationwide talk, text and multimedia messaging, wireless Web access and nationwide Walkie-Talkie that reaches more than 274 million people in more than 15,800 cities across the U.S. for an all-inclusive price of $50/month.
In comparison with Virgin Mobile, this is a lot. The Virgin Mobile plan includes unlimited talk, but those looking to send text messages need to pay an additional $10 per month, which turned out to be a hefty fee in the final analysis. Besides saving consumers more than $200 per year, Boost Mobile’s plan, unlike Virgin Mobile’s plan, offers consumers picture messaging, text messaging, Web access and the popular Walkie-Talkie feature. Boost Mobile offers the fastest national “push-to-talk” network available in the prepaid industry.
