Virgin Mobile USA announced it will launch Texter's Delight, a nationwide prepaid plan promising users unlimited SMS, IM, email, photo and video messaging for $19.99 per month. Launching April 15, the Texter's Delight package will also include a plan offering 1,000 messages for $14.99 per month. Virgin Mobile USA said the messaging plans are targeted to heavy texters who want voice minutes only as needed--the MVNO will offer talk time at 10 cents per minute.
In addition to the Texter's Delight initiative, Virgin Mobile USA will cut the price of its Totally Unlimited prepaid calling plan to $49.99 per month. Customers who sign up for Texter's Delight and/or Totally Unlimited may qualify for Pink Slip Protection, which waives up to three months of monthly charges in the event the customer becomes unemployed.

Texter's Delight? Virgin is ove r$100 when you add the texting and data packages. This is where they make there money so they can give the voice away. It's like giving you the hot dog for $0.50 and charging $10 for the buns.

Until they start spending money on indirect account managers and the dealer channel, Walmart can have them!!!If you want to go big. Build your agent channel. Not one job is posted Nationwide for Account Managers. What a waste! Anyways my pick is Boost , Metro PCS and Cricket. They seem to be doing it the way it needs to be done.

I think the Texter's Delight is a good deal. Remember, if you want the fancy bells and whistles, you go with a contract carrier like Sprint or VZW.
