April 5th, 2006
Mobile ESPN announced today the expansion of its bricks-and-mortar retail distribution outlets to include at least 500 Sprint retail stores in the United States and Puerto Rico. Sprint retail stores will offer Mobile ESPN products and services by July.
Since its February 5 launch, Mobile ESPN has been available exclusively in retail locations through Best Buy stores nationwide, at www.mobileespn.com and by calling 1-800-GET-ESPN. These channels will continue to offer Mobile ESPN with the addition of Sprint retail stores.
Incorporating Sprint retail stores into our distribution strategy allows Mobile ESPN to reach customers in an environment strictly committed to meeting their wireless voice and data needs. The availability of Mobile ESPN at Sprint retail stores also provides an unparalleled option for those wireless consumers who are avid sports fans and want a dedicated sports content experience.
Mobile ESPN wireless network voice and data services are provided on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. High-speed data services are available in the Sprint wireless high-speed data (EVDO) coverage areas.
