      Its the same thing, just black and smaller

        @Norm
        That’s probably not what she said

      Doesn’t take much to look better than the Nexus One. While the specs were great, the design and colors were extremely bland.

  • user

    probably ideal for those that might like better battery life (just a guess) and don’t mind 320×240 touch displays.

  • Rob

    I’m going to guess that most peoe who read this site already have something way better. So while I think this is big news that a real smartphone is making it’s way to pre-paid…….no I am not interested.

    The DROID Wildfire looks like a total fail to me. Who wants such a tiny screen?

    • Norm

      Its 3.2
      Droid eris, g1, mytouch, backflip, lg ally, devour…..
      You need any more?
      I assume you’re coming from a world where every person wants only a 3.5″ screen, nothing more, nothing less.
      What do you say to the person that thinks your iphone is too big?

  • SteveBerman

    the iphone’s screen is too small IMO. So this is a complete joke.

      Welcome to the world of catering to different price brackets and needs.

      It might take a while to sink in for enthusiasts such as yourself, but rest assured, other users with different needs exist.

      • SteveBerman

        well those pussies can have their little phones.

      • user

        and you can also keep getting none.

    I’m curious if phone will come to Virgin Mobile in America too. And if this means there will be more Android smartphones coming to pre-paid.

  • rcmadiax

    I wouldn’t be surprised if a cdma variation of this phone came to virgin usa or boost. For only 300 it would rival crickets budget android from kyrocera.

    • jack

      yeah lets hope it will come to virgin mobile USA because we need some good pay as u go phones.
