MetroPCS is adding to its Android lineup, but don’t expect the additions to bring a real power hitting smartphone to plate for the carrier just yet. Today they announced the availability of the Huawei Ascend, an Android 2.1 handset with a 3.5-inch HVGA touchscreen and 3.2MP camera. The Ascend, initially available via Cricket, joins the LG Optimus M on MetroPCS. Pricing is fair on the pocket at $179.
