This is more than the sub-$220 tag that was indicated as a price point when it launched at CTIA, but remember: this is Cricket, so that&#8217;s a no-contract price. Not bad for an Android-powered phone packing an 800&#215;480 screen, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a 3.2 megapixel camera.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>BlackBerry Curve 9630<\/strong> should launch in August for around $349<\/li>\n<li>On the highend feature phone front: The Samsung R631 is a QWERTY slider that will launch in Q3 2010 for around $200, while the Samsung r710 is a touchscreen bar that will launch for $249 in Q4.<\/li>\n<li>A bunch of lower end feature phones <\/li>\n<li>Two new 3G data USB sticks: the Huawei EC1705 and the foldable, microSD-slotted Cricket A605, which will both launch in August for around $120 bucks.
