Do you have a Helio phone? If so, pay attention. Virgin Mobile has just announced that due to their aquistion by Sprint they are being forced to shut down the Helio service. The date? May 25th.

More information on the shutdown, courtesy of Crunchgear, below:

No customer will be automatically migrated to Sprint’s postpaid service. However, Sprint has created a special offer for our customers.

Current postpaid customers are being given $50 towards the purchase of a Sprint postpaid handset with a new two-year agreement. This credit is in addition to any applicable rebates that may apply. Postpaid customers moving from Virgin Mobile to Sprint will also receive $150 off of handsets as part of Sprint’s standing new customer offer. Activation fees will also be waived.
