Posted in Virgin by Conner Flynn on September 30th, 2010

The Samsung Intercept will be available via Virgin Mobile. In fact it’s the first Android device from Virgin Mobile. However we don’t know when or how much the Intercept is going for.

Sprint is already offering the Intercept for $99 with a 2-year contract. The Samsung Intercept is powered by Android 2.1 and comes with a 3.2-inch 240 × 400 capacitive touchscreen display, a 3.2-megapixel camera with video capture capability.
