Yes, the Motorola i1 (Opus One) has just hit SouthernLINC, but it's going to hit another carrier in the US in the near future as well. It'll be hitting Boost Mobile and will be available contract-free with a $50 unlimited data / web / text plan. This will be the first pre-paid Android handset to hit the US and that's some pretty good news. The upfront contract-free price hasn't been mentioned so look out for it in the next couple of days / weeks.

Like we heard almost two months ago, the Motorola i1 (Opus One) would be available on SouthernLINC in the US first. It's now available (here) for a whopping $200 on a 2-year contract and $275 on a 1-year contract. In case you forgot, this handset is actually quite rugged with a military 810F spec. Other specs include a 3.1-inch HVGA touchscreen display, a 5MP camera with a dual-LED flash, GPS / WiFi support, a microSD card slot, the Swype keyboard, Adobe Flash Lite support, and Android underneath MOTOBLUR.
