Virgin Mobile announced today that it is adding a new, cheap flip phone to its prepaid lineup from Kyocera called the TNT. With a name like TNT, you might expect a cool phone, but it's really just a basic flip phone that Virgin says is perfect for those who want simple things in a phone.

The TNT is available now at major retailers like Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy, and RadioShack at a retail price of $20. I am sure there are customers looking for cheap, prepaid phones and, at $20 the TNT fits the bill.

The TNT measures 3.5" x 1.8" x 0.6" and weighs less than 3 ounces. The phone has an external display that illuminates and shows caller ID. The phone also ships preloaded with games and can accept downloadable animated and real music ringtones. The phone is good for up to 200 minutes of talk time and five days of standby time on a single charge and has room for 250 contacts.
