We’ve first heard about ZTE Chaser back in December 2011. Now it’s live at Virgin Mobile’s website from where you still can’t get it. It’s out of stock and we’re not sure when you’ll actually be able to get one.
In case you wonder, we’re talking about an entry-level Android smartphone that could be yours for $79.99. It has an 800MHz single-core processor, 3.2-inch screen (most likely HVGA), 3G (EV-DO) and Wi-Fi radios, 3-megapixel camera, GPS, Bluetooth, 1,450 mAh battery and a memory card slot (2GB microSD card comes preinstalled). Android 2.3 Gingerbread is running the show.
Of course, you’ll also need to buy some minutes and texts with the phone and Virgin Mobile suggests its Beyond Talk Plans that start at $35 per month…
In a nutshell, the Virgin Mobile Chaser is made for folks who don’t need a high-end smartphone and don’t want to sign carrier contracts… You can check it out from here.

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.
