ZTE Score |
Currently some Best Buy outlets offer devices and services from Cricket, but with this new venture, Cricket is going to capitalize on the traffic that Best Buy stores have to offer on a larger scale. With their roll out nationwide, we’ll see new devices like the Samsung Vitality and ZTE Score making their appearance.
With the ZTE Score, it’s a $129.99 Android 2.3 Gingerbread smartphone that features a 3.5” HVGA display, 600MHz processor, 3.2-megapixel camera, video capture, and Wi-Fi. Later on in the year, they’ll also launch the $99.99 ZTE Chorus, which will offer the lovable music streaming Muve Music service.
Also, future plans will see their operations expanding to other major retailers like Walmart, Dollar General, and the HSN TV shopping network. Essentially, Cricket’s plans to have its presence in over 11,500 stores by the time they’re complete with everything.

Hopefully this means I will have another choice of carrier in my region... if so, then this is the first truly good news in the mobile space that I have seen, for me, in a while. Last I checked, Cricket has affiliate coverage in my area that is eligible for their plan minutes and other stuff, but was insufficient for them to let me buy anything from them online (it rejected my zip code every time).

@brant, I couldnt agree more, if cricket wants to go national they need to have a massive overhal on thier service and step it up in phone line up
