Virgin Mobile is adding two new Samsung feature phones to its prepaid lineup – Entro and Montage. As you can imagine, these two are pretty cheap with the more expensive phone (Montage) costing $49.99 — while the Entro could be yours for just $14.99.
Specs wise, the Samsung Entro is a clamshell device with a 1.77-inch main display, small external screen, support for text messaging and voicemail. As for the Montage, it’s a side-slider that packs both a numeric keypad and full QWERTY keyboard. In addition, it also has a 2-megapixel camera with video recording support, Bluetooth, web browser, media player and a microSD memory card slot.
Needless to say, we can’t really suggest anyone to buy any of these two, except to folks who are on a real tight budget and don’t need a smartphone. Those visiting the U.S. could also grab one of them to have a local number and potentially save hundreds on roaming costs…

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.
