>> I'm Nicole Lee, Associate Editor for CNET.com and this is the Arc from Virgin Mobile. As you can see, it's a very sporty-looking, very slim, very curvy-looking phone right here. It is a very affordable basic camera phone for Virgin Mobile as Virgin Mobile is known for. On the front you do get a color external display. Above it you get the external speaker grill for the speakerphone. Underneath it is the camera lens. On the side, you get a volume rocker, a dedicated camera key, as well as a Hit subject. On the other side you get a dedicated voice command key. Open it up and you get a very nice 262,000 color, a 1.8-inch diagonal display here. Underneath it you get the typical navigation array with dedicated speakerphone key, a web browser key, as well as different short cuts to a new text messages and so forth. Underneath the navigation array you do get a very simple, number keypad, as well. The keypad overall is very nice to dial and text because of the raised surface of the keypad. However, it is similar they crowded at times. Features on the Virgin Mobile Arc are pretty basic. You get a VGA camera, you get text and multimedia messaging, Bluetooth, speakerphone, as well as voice dialing involved, but there's not much else. However for the price, it's not too bad. The Virgin Mobile Arc is available for 49.99 with no contract required. My name is Nicole Lee, this has been the Virgin Mobile Arc. ^M00:01:32 [ Music ]
