Boost Unlimited adds another handset

In a sign that Boost Unlimited will be, in fact, expanding, they’ve launched a new handset for the plan: the Motorola W385. To us, it looks like a glorified RAZR. But Boost sees it differently: “The Motorola W385 is Boost Mobile’s most feature-rich phone ever with Bluetooth®, GPS, 4x Digital Zoom VGA Camera, Text and Multi-Media Messaging, Wireless Web, access to AOL®, Yahoo!® and MSN® Instant Messaging, Hands-free Speakerphone with Voice-Activated Dialing and Voice Recorder, and Customizable Photo Caller ID.” Once again, sounds like a garden-variety phone to us. The phone will run at $129.99, so it’s not all that bad, especially considering the supposed lack of subsidy. And remember, you’re getting so much more than a phone [/sarcasm]:

The Boost-branded phone doubles as a youth fashion accessory, including a two-toned color combination of Café Brown and Black Slate, Bright Color TFT Internal Screen, and vertically-oriented External Black-out Screen – all packaged in a sleek, fashionable soft-touch design.

Yay! Another fashion accessory! Okay, we’ll stop. It’s not a bad phone, and it’s not a bad deal. And now you’re not limited to one puny handset if you live in California or Texas and want Boost Unlimited. [eMedia Wire]]]>
