New Touchscreen and QWERTY Tracfones - LG500g and LG800g

While Tracfone offers some great savings for many users, their handsets have always been somewhat lacking. Lets face, some of them downright suck! I know by Samsung T301 leaves much to be desired in terms of functionality. Well, Tracfone has finally decided to add some nicely capable handsets to their line up, the LG500g and the LG800g.

Both phones come packed with what are now considered industry standards, though no current Tracfone has. Features include mp3, video recorder, digital camera, expandable SD slot, full HTML browser and more. In addition, both phones are also appable! While these are far from "smartphones" both phones are fully capable and starting at $29, you really can't go wrong with the price!

Two great little phones that will finally motivate me to upgrade that old Samsung T301. Find out if these phones are available for your area

One of the cooler things is the ability to use up to 16 gig microSD cards for unlimited storage capacity by way of interchanging cards.

Introducing the New Straight Talk Samsung R451C

Ever since the introduction of Straight Talk, I have been wanting to switch my wife's service. The only thing that had been holding me back, however, was the phone selection. You see, she is really picky when it comes to what phone she carries so giving her a RAZR wasn't really an option.

Fortunately, Straight Talk (phone is also available for Net10 CDMA areas ) has introduced the Samsung R451C! This is really a great phone because it has plenty of features and it makes for an excellent texting phone. The R451 comes with a sliding QWERTY keyboard so texting will be a breeze. In addition, the R451 features a great MP3 player. The really cool thing about it is that you can actually store your MP3s on separate Micro SD card! You can have low capacity ones for short playlists or a 4Gb SD card for storing a nice sized collection! This really makes this a versatile phone and this feature is uncommon on phones like this. Another thing to love about this phone is the 1.3 megapixel camera that takes quality shots. Are you sick of those grainy phone pics? Well, that won't be the case with this one! Finally, the phone comes with Mobile Web features and since the Straight Talk plan comes with 30megs of monthly access, you are free to do use the MMS Picture sharing feature, download new ringtones or graphics. Please visit the Straight Talk Samsung R451C page for more information.

I think my wife will be satisfied with this phone. There really is nothing about it that says cheap or prepaid so she will not have any reason to complain. She will have a cool modern phone and we will save some nice cash with the Straight Talk plan. Click Here to visit Straight Talk to see if this phone/service plan is available in your area.
