Sprint and MySpace

Exhibiting yet more evidence of the continuing technology advancements in regards to the smartphones, Sprint has made a major announcement today. Sprint Nextel, a United States wireless carrier, announced today that their users will have free access to the MySpace mobile web site when that site finally launches sometime in 2008. As is the way most of these smartphone features run, Sprint subscribers will be able to connect directly to the MySpace website through the Sprint home page. There will be a direct link with no URL required. On MySpace's end, they are redesigning their website so that the graphics and e-mail interface will be easier to use. MySpace is the biggest social network in the world, and the article that I read concerning this announcement claims that one million people have visited the mobile site since its beta launch last September. I personally do not use MySpace, but obviously many people are. Yesterday I made a post concerning Palm's recent improvements, and now here is another company improving its product and attempting to give its uers something that they would value.
