Virgin releases entry-level CDMA Samsung r100 Stunt

By on February 26, 2010 at 8:22pm in Mobile News, Various News, Virgin Mobile News

Virgin was on a roll over the past few weeks with launching some stellar HSPA devices: BlackBerry Bold 9700 and the Apple iPhone 3GS. How about a trip sort of backwards to good old (still very reliable) CDMA technology? Today Virgin introduces to their members the Samsung r100 Stunt and state that “this baby packs a whole bunch of goodies into one nifty little package”.

This little beast of an entry device can be yours for $0.00 on a 2-year plan or $49.99 on Prepaid… certainly priced right! The Stunt has a 1.77-inch LCD display (resolution of 128×160), Bluetooth 2.1, can hold up to 500 contacts and has overall dimensions of 107 x 43 x 14 mm with a weight of 2.6 ounces.

  2. That is just plain silly. Can we leave CDMA in the dust already? Bringing out new devices only maintains the network, when it should be looked at being shut down.

  3. @Gussy Have you even used one of the new HSPA devices on Bell or Telus? There is still alot of kinks that need to be fixed in the HSPA network yet. I have a BB 9700 on Telus. I half to admit that it is better than the CDMA BB 8130 that i used to use, but that’s only when it works. HSPA isnt ready to be Telus or Bells only network.
