Cricket is preparing to add a new low-end QWERTY keyboard-equipped feature phone to it portfolio – Samsung Comment II (R390C). The successor to the original Comment packs a 2.4-inch QVGA screen, 2-megapixel camera on the back, Bluetooth, media player, web browser and a microSD memory card slot.
The device is still not available at Cricket’s website though we guess that will happen in the next couple of days (since it got its place at Samsung’s website). Price is still unknown and I bet the phone will cost about $70 sans any contracts signed.
That said, the chances are we won’t get back to you with more information on Samsung Comment II and we doubt you want us to put more time to it.
The original Samsung Comment, in case you wonder, currently sells for $39.99 at Cricket.
