Samsung Slash officially hits Virgin Mobile USA

Roughly two weeks ago we reported Virgin Mobile USA will be adding the first Samsung-made handset to its portfolio. And now… the Slash is here ! As with all Virgin Mobile phones, don't expect the high end features. $79.99 buys you sleek and compact slider with VGA camera, Bluetooth, decent battery, and full messaging software pre-installed. In addition, the phone comes with few preloaded games, teasing you to order more mobile content (games, wallpapers, ringtones) through VirginXL portal. And that's pretty much it! At the moment the Slash is available at retailers only, and will be hitting Virgin Mobile USA's website soon. --- Related Articles at IntoMobile:
