In the wake of its new focus on providing messaging and web-centric services, Virgin Mobile has added four handsets to its lineup. Several were previously offered by Sprint. The BlackBerry Curve 8530 will cost $300 and should be available by the end of May. The LG Rumor Touch is already available for $150 with no contract. The LG Rumor 2 is available for $80 with no contract. Last, the Kyocera Loft (same as Torino S2300) is available for $70 with no contract. It offers a QVGA display, QWERTY keyboard, 1.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and voice control. The rest of Virgin's lineup remains unchanged for now.

Looks cool.. I wonder...

yeah i wonder what the menus will look like
because the menus are different from the sprint rumor2 than the VM rumor2, and this one is going to be a touchscreen...

i hope the they keep the hello UI and other neat features on this

also i like that Rumor touch from virgin will be black/chrome instead of the others it looks nice
hopefully they'll launch different colors too, because for the rumor2 it only came out in one color
