Cricket customers needing a non-EV-DO handset in
Nokia's standard candybar shape needn't look any longer.
Leap Wireless announced that the Nokia 6275i is now immediately available from its
Cricket retail locations for $199.99. Although the lack of EV-DO disturbs us a bit, the 6275i still offers a 2 megapixel cam with flash, MP3 capability, microSD slot, infrared, Bluetooth, USB and of course, the staple FM radio that Nokia seems to be in love with. The 6275's physical size, at 4.29 x 1.68 x 0.677 inches, is a tad portly for 2007, although at 3.7 ounces it is still pretty light. But Cricket, come on -- $199.99 for this? We're thinking free out the door with a new contract, mkay?
cricket does not offer contracts thats why you pay full price and it comes with a 20 dollar rebate online
Yea cricket does pay 50 bucks a month and no contract and you get everything unlimited but we are gonna charge you a lot for the phone.
hmm....engadget doesnt know that cricket is a MVNO?? Doesn't shock me.
they are not an MVNO http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket_Communications
do your research before you comment
"Leap has an all-digital CDMA 1X and 1xEV-DO network that has expanded significantly in the past few years."
