Double-digit per month churn rates means that within a year, there are no phones in use, just a few people who haven't given up on the limited and expensive service. $326 million in sunk costs, $55 million per year in expenses and zero revenues (even I didn't predict such a low level of revenues) means it's unsustainable unless something is done. Compare $15-$20 per month to FREE, and much content, including local news.

I would hope that it does. In fact, to carry the "H" designation, it had better. I think that time slicing and low screen resolution are the defining traits of the "H" in M/H. > What if MediaFlo has to adopt M/H to make a true go of it? And orphan all those V-Cast enabled phones? Hardly. > There was an awful lot of discussion in the report of network effects ... More like speculations.
