Virgin Mobile has quietly begun to offer handset insurance for phones under the Beyond Talk series of plans for an additional $5 a month via Asurion.  The option covers moisture damage, loss, theft and accidental damage with deductibles ranging from $25 to $100 depending on phone.  This follows sister MVNO Boost Mobile offering handset insurance earlier this quarter.
