Virgin Mobile to Launch the Wild Card by Kyocera

October 19, 2007 11:08 AM | Kyocera | Virgin Mobile | Comments (6)

This fall, Virgin Mobile USA's will launch the new Wild Card by Kyocera Wireless.  The handset is for music lovers looking for the convenience of Bluetooth wireless technology in a sophisticated handset with the ease of texting on a full QWERTY keyboard should look to be dealt.

The first Virgin Mobile handset with streaming music capability, Wild Card gives customers the ability to listen to their favorite music right through the phone, and "ups the ante" on the full texting keyboard capabilities of last year's Switch_Back phone.

Weighing in at just over 4 ounces, the sleek and stylish Wild Card "aces" great functionality within a compact and trendsetting clamshell casing. Among its most notable features are two vibrant color displays.

The first on the front face of the phone is for voice calls. But by turning the phone sideways and giving its face a quick flip, customers have access to the Wild Card's wide screen -- along with a sizeable QWERTY keypad designed to make emailing, texting, IMing, gaming, browsing online, or streaming full music tracks simple and enjoyable.

Wild Features

The new Wild Card is being paired with the newest messaging offer from Virgin Mobile USA -- unlimited domestic messaging including text, IM, email and picture messaging for $19.99 per month. When customers activate their Wild Card and purchase their first month of unlimited messaging, they will receive their second month free.

Also featured on Wild Card is "Headliner," Virgin Mobile's personalized mobile music magazine. For only $2.49 per month, Headliner offers concert tour updates, music news, artist information (bios, discographies, etc.), latest music charts and other music-related points of interest through a subscription service. Introduced earlier this year, Headliner now works like a jukebox, upgraded for the Wild Card to include a streaming music function that allows the customer to listen to individual tracks for 25 cents each.

In addition to these exciting features, the Wild Card also offers Virgin Mobile customers peace of mind with "Contact Vault" which allows those with the Wild Card, Cyclops and Switch_Back handsets the ability to store, retrieve, delete and transfer their personal contacts list in the event the phone is lost, stolen, damaged or upgraded. Customers can easily input up to six phone numbers per contact in the address book and store up to 140 contacts in total, depending on the phone model. The Contact Vault costs $1.99 per month, or $9.99 for a six-month subscription.

Stacked Like a Deck of Cards

Don't be fooled by its slim figure. The Wild Card deals a strong hand with innovative features including:

Large hidden QWERTY keypad
Dual display screens - External 65k color 128 X 128 pixel;
                          - Internal 65k color 128 X 160 pixel wide screen
1.3 megapixel camera with 3x digital zoom and images effects including
     black and white photos
Integrated speakerphone
"Real-music" ringtones
WAP 2.0 Web browser
Bluetooth Wireless Technology

Those looking to get their game on can check out preloaded demo games PAC- MAN, Ms. PAC-MAN and Block Breaker Deluxe. Wild Card users also have access to VirginXL, Virgin Mobile's full suite of diverse mobile content.

Virgin Mobile's Wild Card by Kyocera Wireless rolled out at retail beginning on October 7 and is now available at stores including Best Buy, Radio Shack, Target and Wal-Mart. The Wild Card will be available on http://www.virginmobileusa.com/ as of October 24.
