The LG Rumor buy one get one free is the best deal on the market right now for a text/email phone.  The only downside to this phone is network speed, so it’s not great for web surfing or web intensive applications, but for those few killer applications, text, email, pictures, and music, it’s a great phone at a steal of a price, $49.99.  Verizon’s phones for this category are 2.0x - 5.0x as expensive.  It’s value…

The LG Rumor was the most popular phone at Sprint 3 months ago and it’s still going strong.  There is a new green, “earth friendly” color.    It has all the features a smartphone does for those killer applications. 

1.  A large QWERTY keyboard

2.  Texting and email capability, even push email capabilities

3.  A great camera at 1.3 MP

4.  Music player and storage for microSD

5.  A sleek slider form factor

6.  Long battery life and a great antenna for signals

 The LG Rumor can help the text messenger in do more with less.  Combine this with Sprint’s unlimited talk and text plan for $89.99/month and you really have a great deal.

Value plans and value handsets…Sprint’s the value play.
