Boost offers Motorola i885

Following hot on the heels of its corporate parent, Sprint Nextel, Boost Mobile has added its own variant of Nextel's Motorola i880 as the i885. It looks like the phone hasn't changed much from when we first scooped it way back in July, with the range-topping device bringing a 2 megapixel cam, microSD slot, and dedicated music controls to the table. Minor differences from its more uptight i880 sibling include a migration of the external controls from the phone's front to the side and a trick, lit Boost Mobile logo on the lower left of the flip. The i885 is shipping now for a stiff $350 -- but that's the price one must pay for prepaid iDEN supremacy these days.
