A prepaid cell phone is only as good as its software; after all it’s the software that gives it its own character. What good is your phone if it can’t keep you connected to your social world that lives in Facebook, MySpace or Mocrospace?

Video entertainment on the move is a must! As is action sports and fun games that will never see you getting bored ever again.

Another important software feature that has become most useful is that of navigation. A feature you can upload easily that will get you where you want to go every time. Your prepaid cell phone should be a reflection of your own personality and this will only happen when you load it with the best available software such as:

• MyBackup: The utmost in data backup solutions.
• Ringback tones: This software gives you the ability to choose a song to entertain your caller.
• MyHomeScreen: This is a customizable source for accessing your account information, sports scores, weather, and/or horoscope.

A businessperson might well choose software that is good at HTML web browsing which will allow email access and image uploading, whereas a teen may be more inclined to go for wallpaper and graphics, and the ability to access Facebook profiles. This will always remain a personal choice.

Low cost carrier Cricket, with its 5.8 million satisfied subscribers, is one carrier that is more than just catering for cost conscious smartphone users with its growing range of prepaid cell phones. It is also keeping up with the best software available for all manner of specific requirements.
