Virgin Mobile Kyocera K9 Pay-As-You-Go Wireless Phone
This K9 Won't Bite
This is a nice, sleek looking phone from a simple pay as you go wireless provider.  Virgin Mobile uses the SPRINT PCS network and charges you as follows...$.025 a minute for the first 10 minutes of the day, then $0.10 a minute after that.  Or, $0.10 a minute plus $0.35 a day.  You pay $0.10 per text message you send and it is free to receive them.  You must top off your account at least $20 every 90 days to keep your account active, but you keep the minutes you have already purchased.  If you don't use your phone a lot your looking at $6.66 a month for a cell phone.  How simple is that?  No other hidden fees involved.<br /><br />The Kyocera K9 is being replaced by the K10 with a color screen and more features.  This phone is a bargain price wise compared to the K10.  You can send and receive text from other phones or email addresses.  There are tons of downloadable stuff from the web site as well.  Other features include a built in flashlight, jack for an ear piece and one of the games is get this, TETRIS!  Anytime your curious about how much money you have left on your account you can check your balance right on the phone.  It takes about 5 seconds for the account information to be zapped back to you in a text message.  You can also access your account on the web site.<br /><br />If your like me who got tired of spending over $50 a month for cell phone minutes I never used, this is for you.  I like the convenience of having a phone, but do not have a need to have it glued to my ear all day.  Virgin Mobile pay as you go is simple and in my case money saving.  Not to mention this particular phone is a bargain in price and stylish too!
