Virgin Mobile USA really looks to be going on a US wireless industry blitz. With MVNO takeovers, new calling plans, and fresh new handsets being announced left and right, Virgin Mobile USA is on a mission to snatch-up more and more US wireless subscribers. The latest move to convince Americans to jump on Virgin Mobile's US-bandwagon is the new Kyocera-sourced Virgin Mobile TNT!.
The new Virgin Mobile Kyocera TNT! is aimed at the entry-level consumer looking for basic features in a fairly attractive package. Following on the launch of the Virgin Mobile Arc the other day, the Virgin Mobile TNT! offers customers an even cheaper clamshell alternative – while misleading the rest of us in to thinking the TNT! packs a techy-punch. With a single-line, monochrome external display, speakerphone, and basic web access as its main selling-points, the Virgin Mobile TNT! is even more basic than the already barren Arc.
But, if the Virgin Mobile Arc's asking price is just a little more than you'd like to pay for a wireless handset, you'll be glad to hear that the Virgin Mobile TNT! will cost a penny shy of . And, don't forget, you'll also have access to Virgin Mobile USA's new unlimited calling plans.
