Cherry Picks 2008: Virgin Mobile’s Wild Card

This Virgin Mobile Phone, called the Wild Card, is already available for $100. It’s the perfect phone for those who love to both text and listen to music.

It has a full QWERTY keyboard and is the first Virgin Mobile handset with streaming music capabilities. It has no annual contract and weighs just over 4 ounces and has two vibrant color displays, one for voice calls and one for the Wild Card wide screen.

For a small fee ( $2.49 a month) you can also access Virgin’s Headliner music magazine and in turn you can then listen to individual tracks for just $.25 each.
