It seems that Sprint and one of its prepaid MVNO brands, Virgin Mobile, will get their own versions of the LG Optimus Net. Dubbed LG Optimus Elite, it is said that it’s an NFC-enabled smartphone with low-to-mid range specs that include a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen, 800MHz processor, 512MB of RAM, 5-megapixel rear-facing camera with flash, 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS, and 4GB of built-in storage that is further expandable with microSD cards. In other words, it’s one of those devices made for first-time smartphone buyers.
The rumor goes on suggesting Sprint’s Elite will be launched first, followed by Virgin’s — all by the end of May. The Elite will replace the Optimus S (Sprint) and Optimus V (Virgin Mobile), which are the two carriers’ versions of the Optimus One.
We’ll keep following this story and let you know as soon as we hear something new. Stay tuned in the meantime, k?

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.
