Virgin Mobile will offer a camera phone it claims is "custom made for the youth market" this October. The Flasher V7 flip phone's features include a 65,000-color display, a WAP 2.0 browser for access to exclusive content from *MTV, Comedy Central, etc., a handset with Superphonic (or real music) ringtone capabilities, a two-way speakerphone, vibrating alert, and two-way text messaging (Thanks for the photo Anne!)

From the press release:

"The photo capabilities of the Flasher make it a great companion to the music-focused handset we launched with Virgin Mobile earlier this year - the Vox 8610. We are dedicated to helping Virgin Mobile develop a handset line that really speaks to the key passions driving the youth market." — Philip Christopher, President and CEO, Audiovox Communications Corp (the company that developed the handset)
