Cricket has a new phone in its offering. It’s the Samsung r460 aka MyShot II, a low-end clamshell-shaped device. Specs wise, there’s a 1.3 megapixel camera on board, music player, Bluetooth, tri-band CDMA radio including Cricket’s AWS 1700MHz, as well as a microSD expansion slot which accepts cards of up to 8GB. The simple device seems designed for the first-time phone buyers, who are not that interested in the high-end features of today’s smartphones.
The Samsung MyShot II costs $140, sans any contracts signed, and you could grab it at any Cricket dealership or online, through their website.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
