Back in May, Boost Mobile let us know that they would be picking up the QWERTY touting Motorola i465 Clutch. It’s nothing special but for those looking for a perfect prepaid texting handset, the i465 isn’t a bad choice.

Well today, more than 2 months after said phone dropped, Boost has announced that the i465 will begin shipping next Tuesday with a new black paintjob (or Graphite if you want to be official about it).

In terms of pricing, you’re looking at $129.99 for the Motorola i465 Clutch, but it’s without a contract, so it makes sense.

Coinciding with the launch of the Motorola Clutch i465 phone boasting of a full QWERTY keyboard is the Clutch Combo Deal that carries an “Monthly Unlimited” service covering calls, text, wireless web and walkie-talkie service for only $50. Now that is a deal that people are sure to want especially now that we are all looking for great deals to help budget our needs.

The deal is something that any mobile phone owner would ream off. And with this new Motorola Clutch i465 being the pioneer of this special promo, expect it to grow as well as the “Service Unlimited Phone” to have which people are definitely going to avail.

The Motorola Clutch i465, the first iDEN cellphone to feature a QWERTY keypad, is now available from Boost Mobile.  The official announcement in early May pointed to a release some time in June, but we are not complaining that it was released a few days earlier.  $129.99 will get you the Clutch and its 1.8-inch screen, VGA camera, GPS, and an easy way to start texting/emailing.  Not much to go on there but a decent handset nonetheless for its price.  Go on and get it from Boost Mobile if you like it.
