Just got this from BB for the same price, although I already have Google Wallet. It's a decent phone. Originally had the Optimus slider but the battery life and low internal storage were both a pain. This is better.
Fortunately, I bought it from Radioshack which also has a 30day return policy. I already got the RMA # but just wondering if I should get the new phone now or wait for my refund.
I would avoid the optimus. Its really under powered. Also look through the amazon appstore and see how many times an app states "will not run on LG Optimus".
I picked it up from BB instead because I had until 5/27 to swap phone and still be able to keep my grandfather plan ($25/month). After 5/27, it will be $35/month to swap for a phone that is released in May and after.

I did not know the new model came out so I bought the slider 2 weeks ago for the same price. I am so angry at myself now.
#2, if you bought it from VM's site, they have 30 days return

Wow talk about an outdated phone.

Unfortunately, for virgin mobile users, there are not many good choices out there.
