WARREN, N.J. -- Virgin Mobile USA announced its newest handset for 2008, the UTStarcom Arc. A flip phone outlined with stylish curves, the Arc is finished in a trendsetting red soft-feel touch. This affordable mobile phone, which includes Bluetooth® wireless technology and a camera, brings another cost-effective and attractive product to Virgin Mobile USA’s lineup, offering its millions of customers yet another desirable handset available without an annual contract.

A recent survey of Virgin Mobile USA customers finds that two-thirds prefer simple phones that support basic needs, including calling, Bluetooth® wireless technology, e-mail and messaging capabilities.* The Arc was designed for consumers who want a phone for what it does best—making and receiving calls and instant messages.

According to Matias Monges, Virgin Mobile USA’s Director of Mobile Devices, “The Arc offers a very reasonably priced camera phone with a fashion-conscious finish for consumers who want to capture spontaneous moments with a little style. And with Bluetooth® wireless technology, we’re sweetening the deal with additional value.”
