Alltel picks up LG Wave with assisted GPS |
Alltel today announced it was carrying the AX380, nicknamed the Wave based on its rolling visual design. The LG-made flip phone tackles the mid-range but includes extra touches such as dedicated music controls on the outer lid and Alltel's signature Celltop widget interface for news and weather; assisted GPS support is also included and joins with the cell provider's network for driving directions. Built-in EVDO readies the phone for video streaming, web access, and larger downloadable apps.The Wave represents the baseline of many of LG's other mid-range phones with a 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and a microSD slot for storing MP3s and photos. Alltel lists the phone as available today and sells it for as little as $80 with a two-year contract and $250 for those outside of regular plans or replacing an existing handset. |
