The Motorola W385 also includes demo versions of entertainment applications, such as Boost Hookt, one the world’s largest mobile community chat rooms and Boost loopt, a popular location-based social mapping service that enables mobile phone users to share their location, status messages, photos and other on-the-go experiences with friends. A monthly subscription charge is required with the full version of these applications.

“The W385 is among the most feature-rich phones available from any regional flat-rate prepaid wireless service,” said Neil Lindsay, vice president of product management, Boost Mobile. “And the handset comes preloaded with some of today’s hottest mobile social networking applications, and connects customers to Boost Mobile’s extensive selection of Real Music Ringtones, Exclusive Wallpapers and Java-enabled Games and Applications.”
