ESPN MOBILE Sean Tigue COMM. 115

MVNOs ESPN launched their MVNO in February 2006 to offer scores, highlights, alerts and video clips at the push of a button MVNO means Mobile Virtual Network Operators Big name companies like ESPN, Disney, Amped, 7-Eleven, and Virgin Mobile all offer MVNOs I chose this topic because in the near future MVNOs will revolutionize the way we receive information I gathered my research through articles within the Academic Search Premiere Database

Mobile ESPN ESPN Mobile has its upsides and down sides I found the realistic capabilities of the ESPN mobile products did not meet the expectations of consumers In my opinion, ESPNs attempt to provide a successful MVNO is a failure

Models ESPN Mobile only offers two models for consumers to choose from The Sanyo MVP $ WOW !!!

Models The cheaper alternative is The Samsung Ace $65.00

Intriguing Features The Sanyo MVP 1.3 mega-pixel camera Speakerphone MP3 capability Stereo Phone The Samsung Ace Sleek thin design Digital Camera Large display screen Reasonable Price

Main Complaints for Both Models The Sanyo MVP Outrageous Price 16mb Memory Slow Downloading Time Poor Quality of Sound & Video Poor Service The Samsung Ace Poor Battery Life Poor Pricing Plans Slow Downloading time Poor Quality of Sound & Video Poor Service Durability

Say No to ESPN Mobile….. After all the Information Ive found I do not recommend purchasing the ESPN Mobile Service & here are my main reason for this….. Cost of service outweighs the benefits Poor Service & quality Variety of options are limited Capabilities dont realistically meet expectations

ANY QUESTIONS ????????
