Meh their employees may or may not know :P when the triumph was leaked though many people *including me* had serious doubts, there is no reason to believe it isn't heading to virgin in my opinion.

I was once PM'd by a representative of Virgin Mobile on Facebook, telling me not to spread rumors about phones before they were released.
Yes, the rep's words made it pretty clear they were actually planning on a phone's release. So ask away, they tend to be extremely Freudian. I wish I still had a screenshot of that.

I haven't seen any photos, although there is a second source to PocketNow: When the one series was announced, an HTC rep apparently told someone that in the United States it would be on MetroPCS, VMUSA, and US Cellular.Originally Posted by Fuzzbox

A new One V review from Slashgear:

SlashGear cited PhoneScoop, phoneScoop's article is as follows.
That's so bloody helpful.An HTC spokesperson today confirmed that Metro PCS, U.S. Cellular, and Virgin Mobile will all offer the HTC One V. The phone runs Android 4.0 with Sense 4, and features a dual-core processor, 3.7-inch display, and 5-megapixel camera.

From the SlashGear Review
Am I the only one that finds that really disappointing? 95MB isn't very much space for apps.One thing you should take note of is the storage of the device: you’ve only got 1GB to play with, and there’s only 95MB available for phone storage.

Agreed. It's less than the Slider. Pretty sure that it's even less than the Intercept. It might be the smallest app space of any Android phone in the VM lineup.

I believe it is the other way around - 1GB for apps, 95MB for 'media' (pics, videos, music) with the option to expand it greatly with a microSD card.

The Verge has a review of the One V up:
http://www.theverge.com/2012/4/18/29...c-one-v-review
It got a 7.1 out of 10 overall, with 7s and 8s in every category except performance. Seems good for a midrange phone. The conclusion (emphasis mine):
I'm completely in love with a number of things about the One V. Its design looks fantastic, feels hard-wearing, and is distinctive enough to stand out from the crowd when compared to most of the other handsets in stores today. It's also one of the most affordable ways to grab a handset running Android 4.0, even if it is shrinkwrapped in Sense, though software inclusions like ImageSense do make up for this somewhat.
A few things do let the One V down. Minor ergonomic niggles give the handset a sense of form over function, but more serious is the mediocre performance offered by the low specs. For the average user this probably won't matter, though for anyone who wants to use their device for multimedia or gaming, two years might be a long time to spend with an underpowered phone.
There's definitely still a demand for phones with smaller screens — I'd personally prefer something a little larger — but it seems odd that these users are forced to compromise on other specs to get what they want. If you're looking for a phone which keeps things simple and excels at all of the essentials, then this could be it.

If this phone truly has 4 gb of internal memory, where the heck does it all go? if there's 1gb for apps, and 95mb of file storage space, what is the remaining ~2.5gb used for? heck they managed to squeeze sense onto the wildfire s lol.

Is it ICS? I know it has high requirements but doubt it could use so much space. It could be some kind of swap memory for the rapid burst camera before saving a jpg. If the pictures taken during rapid mode are temporarily stored in raw format to speed up the fps it could use a lot of data spilling over the ram, since storing the raw images to the sd card would be too slow, internal memory that stores at a predictable rate may have been used.

That would make sense, but seems like a pretty big sacrifice to me. I would prefer them giving users an choice if they want this huge cache available, or to forgo the camera cache and get extra space. although that probably wouldn't make them look too good.

If I don't care about the camera, exactly why would I upgrade from the Optimus V? Doesn't seem worthwhile to me...
Virgin Mobile... where obsolete phones go to die.
