Staying in the game...

Will any other cell phone provider make it? Ampd mobile has closed.
They paid to use Verizon's network. They spent a lot of money on
advertising. Ampd advertised entertainment (mp3, videos, games, etc.)
on your cell phone. Ampd mobile tried but still could not survive.
Can any small cell phone provider survive? Virgin Mobile has been
around for a while and has the experience of Richard Branson. Virgin
Mobile uses the Sprint network and used to advertise quite a lot.
Now, I do not see as much advertising from them. Will one day they be
eaten up by one of the larger cell phone providers?
Cricket Wireless has recently popped up in the Northwest. Everywhere
you looked was advertising for Cricket Wireless. Now there seems to
be nothing. How long before an AT&T, Verizon, Sprint or T-Mobile buy
them up? ESPN Mobile did not survive, they ended up being part of
Verizon Wireless.
Will the private company of Prexar Mobile who bought most of the
assets of Ampd Mobile survive?
Time will tell if smaller cell phone providers can make it or if they
will just be a part of the big four. So, until next time keep your
cell phones charged.
