Samsung Hue now available on Alltel
Added on 2007-07-16 09:45:00
by Randall Bennett

For you southern-types with Alltel wireless in your area, you can now get on the budget-phone Ev-DO bandwagon.  The Samsung Hue hit Alltel today and at $40 after rebate, it's definitely a phone that won't break the bank and, fortunately for Alltel users, shouldn't be too disappointing.  The phone rocks integrated GPS, Bluetooth, integrated MP3 player, and for the late 90's set who miss interchangable faceplates, the "Hue" is focused primarily on the ability to change faceplate color.  The device ships with two faceplates, but, as always, you can purchase more to "accomidate your changing mood and lifestyle," as the press release says.
