Exclusive to MetroPCS, VE440 featuring the Mister Cartoon design comes in a black and chrome color combination and offers something for everyone with two interchangeable back covers featuring Mister Cartoon's distinctive, custom artwork. In addition to the unique exterior, consumers will receive a 1GB MicroSD memory card featuring two previously unreleased full-length tracks by multi-platinum, award winning recording artist, Snoop Dogg. Pre-loaded phone content includes exclusive wallpapers and ringtones from Mister Cartoon and Snoop Dogg.
Mister Cartoon is a renowned tattoo artist, car customizer, illustrator and designer and has worked with numerous entertainment icons including Eminem, Beyonce and film producer Brian Grazer. Mister Cartoon most recently worked with television star George Lopez to help create the branding and identity for Lopez's new talk show, "Lopez Tonight."
"It's great to collaborate with MetroPCS again, and we are very excited about the opportunity to work with Motorola on this handset," said Mister Cartoon, creative director of SA Studios Global. "The mobile phone has become so much more than just a communication device; it's a way for people to express themselves. The design I created, along with the cool features and music that Snoop Dogg added will allow fans to show people who they are and what they're passionate about."
The handset will be available exclusively at select MetroPCS locations and online. A portion of the revenue generated from the handset sales will go directly to funding community art centers, outreach programs for at-risk youth and art supplies for schools in many of the MetroPCS markets.
