If you’re looking for the biiiiig handset announcement of the day, check out T-Mobile’s BlackBerry Pearl flip. For us prepaid folk, though, there’s something to tide us over. Cricket prepaid has unveiled the Samsung JetSet (a/k/a Samsung r550), a clamshell phone that has some nifty features. These include a 2.0 megapixel camera, up from the 1.3 or VGA we see from many mid-level clamshells, an MP3 player, and support for microSD cards up to 16GB. Those cards, however, are new and expensive. And yeah, it has Bluetooth.
Sergio Garcia of Cricket on the JetSet:
“We are pleased to be able to expand our AWS handset offerings with such a modern, fashion forward device,” said Sergio Garcia, senior director of devices and logistics for Cricket. “The Samsung JetSet is among the finest in our product line and supports many of today’s most popular applications — making it a great way for customers to take full advantage of our signature unlimited service.”You can head over to Cricket’s website to check out the deal. It’ll cost you $199.99 with no service commitment. ]]>
