MP3s On Your Sprint PCS Phone

from the convergence dept

Sprint PCS is launching a new service to put MP3s on mobile phones. This isn't a surprise, and people have been talking about these MP3-enabled phones for a while. I'm not sure how successful it will be at first though. My guess is, that as an MP3 player, the phone won't be all that strong. As a phone, it appears to be a bit pricey.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

      They already have video games on cell phones.... It's illegal to drive in some cities while *talking* on a cell phone, so wonder what happens when you can drive with your cell phone?

          Why bother having all that on a mobile phone? I want that all piped directly into my brain... Well, maybe not Felicity or Popular.

            Why bother having a "brain"? I want my consciousness transferred to an immortal machine. :) But I'm not sure I want to be an early-adopter of that technology....
