Cricket Communications, provider of prepaid wireless services, today launched its first Android device, the Sanyo Zio by Kyocera.
According to a press release, the Zio sports a 3.5-inch touchscreen, 3.2 MP camera with video record/playback, media player, full HTML web browser, GPS, Wi-Fi and memory expandable up to 32GB through its microSD memory slot. ZIO also comes equipped with an ambient light sensor and accelerometer.
Cricket is launching an all-inclusive $55 Android service plan to accompany the device, which offers customers unlimited talk, text, picture mail, web browsing, email and international text.
Cricket is the first carrier to offer the new, feature-packed ZIO. ZIO is the second of three Smartphones expected to be launched by Cricket in 2010. Cricket launched the Blackberry Curve 8530 earlier this month.
The Zio is available now at Cricket-branded retail stores and at dealers nationwide without a contract for $249.99.
