It looks like Virgin Mobile USA are going to be selling the X-tc from Kyocera Wireless in the next few weeks. The phone comes with a QWERTY keypad that is just ideal for sending text messages and e-mails. It’s expected that the phone will sell for around $100 without having to have a contract which makes a little bit of a change from being tied in to 12 months or 18 months contract.

The phone is expected to hit stores in the US from the second week in April and features a 1.3 MP camera, with a large 2.4? TFT QVGA screen, Stereo Bluetooth® and Micro SD card slot for memory cards up to 8GB. It also comes with lots of other standard features that you find on most phones nowadays like Music Player , Predictive text, Web browsing capability  and support for SMS, MMS, photos and IM. reports so far have been positive and indicate that this is a really nice phone and will do well for Virgin mobile
