Earlier this week, I was invited to attend an exclusive invite only launch party at Nashville's Hard Rock Cafe  for  Cricket's new Muve  Music Samsung Suede mobile phone. This phone is a state of the art phone for music and entertainment connoisseurs. It offers you the opportunity to download your favorite  artist tracks, download music quickly, and share with friends who have the same music interests and so much more.

Cricket Phone Jones!, served as a guest speaker and broke down the luxuries and features of the MUVE phone. He even offered me a brief tutorial on how to download music, ignore calls by flipping the phone face down, and a special shake of the phone brought it to its home screen.

Julie Moncrief, Cricket Marketing manager, offered me assistance in a thorough tutorial with a top salesman Rick who showed me all the shortcuts, ins and outs of the new Muve phone. (After the tutorial, I was definitely sold on the product and found myself questioning my Droid phone.)

The Muve phone officially went up for sale at the price of $199.00 (it offers a $99 after in store and mail in rebate as well) on February 14th and has been popular with its comprehensive catalog of music content with catalogs from top record labels as: Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, BMI, Warner Music Group and even adding music from independent label IODA.

According to Cricket, there is no other phone on the market quite like it with its features.  The phone comes at an affordable music rate plan of $55 per month which includes: Unlimited nationwide calling, unlimited nationwide text, picture and video messaging, unlimited global text messaging, unlimited 3G mobile web, unlimited email, unlimited data back up, and unlimited video.

In addition, it delivers first time never before seen features such as: unlimited ringtones which you can make personable from your downloaded tracks from your favorite part of a song, unlimited full track downloads, and unlimited ringback tones.

General manager of Cricket Communications, Liz Hough says, “We are excited to bring Muve Music to Tennessee so customers can experience a simple, affordable way to listen to music on the go,”  “Muve Music brings the functionality that resides on many online digital music services to the palm of the customer’s hand.  The service also delivers innovative new features and functionality that only a wireless network and true mobile offering can provide. With Cricket’s new service there are no cables, no drivers, no synching and no complexity.”

Fav features of MUVE PHONE

* Music playing up to 9 hours of battery life

*Get Social feature allows you to connect with friends and other Muve music users. You can view their music collections, download their playlists and share what's on your phone too. ( It's very fast too!)

*SHAZAM is  great for those of us who hear a song and don't know the artist or title of the song, it actually identifies the artist and title instantly. Then you have the option of downloading the song if you like.

*MY DJ this is kind of like your IPOD playlists, except you have the luxury of downloading songs and sending them directly to your phone. (It's a small phone and easy to keep up with if you want to plug in to your car you can or take it to the gym with headphones.)

*Another great thing about this phone is it has 3GB of memory which allows you to store up to 3,000 songs and 1GB is for pictures, videos and other digital content.

Overall, it was a successful night and great event for all who came out to this exclusive event. They even ended the night on a high note by offering a gift box filled with Cricket goodies and promotions for the Muve Music phone.
