<p>Please join me in my efforts to Boycott Virgin Mobile USA.&#160; The company blocks twitter.&#160; That’s really the only reason.&#160; They acknowledge that they “do not support it” and they refuse to support it, despite my unlimited plan, so, I’m calling for a boycott!</p>
<p>Please Tweet this blog and join me in my efforts!&#160; This is unacceptable =)</p>
<p>Thanks~</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Virgin Mobile USA purchased Helio lately, which is super freaking awesome and all well and good, except for the lack of continuity across plans.&#160; Want an example?</p>
<p><img style="display: inline; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px" alt="virgin-mobile-shuttle-cell-phone" align="right" src="http://nexus404.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads2/2008/09/virgin-mobile-shuttle-cell-phone.jpg" width="79" height="113" />The <a href="http://www.virginmobileusa.com/phones/phoneDetail.do?skuId=VMUTX2" rel="nofollow">Virgin Mobile Shuttle</a>.&#160; A fantastic, 3G phone that comes without a contract.&#160; The phone itself costs just $80, and for unlimited talk, the price is only $50 per month.&#160; Not a bad deal, is it?&#160; You can even add unlimited texting into that deal for another $10 per month.&#160; </p>
<p>Then, of course, there is the Helio Heat.&#160; Cost of $219 (Minus an additional $170 if you’re a new member, and another $49 if you’re purchasing online for a free phone!)&#160; But if you want unlimited talk on that plan (and nothing else) it’ll run you $80 per month!&#160; <img style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px; display: inline" align="left" src="http://www.crunchgear.com/wp-content/pbucket/Heat_black_closed.jpg" width="95" height="161" />Although, you can move that up to a Completely Unlimited Voice, Data, Text, IM, etc. for $100 per month; but still, in comparison the prices for the plans just don’t add up!</p>
<p>So what does Virgin Mobile need to do?&#160; Personally, I think they should finally combine Helio with themselves, and even out the plans to bring them some continuity!&#160; Without it, things just don’t seem to be in the right ballpark. </p>
