Nice spin....

US MVNOs Fail To Capture Market Imagination Disney Likely to Succeed Where Helio Will Fail http://www.strategyanalytics.net/default.aspx?mod=PressReleaseViewer&a0=3021 "MVNOs, such as Helio and Mobile ESPN, have not lived up to their marketing hype.

They have grown by over 200% over a short period of time and they survived while others crashed and burned. They have not reached a point in their subscriber growth where they can now grow rapidly using their organic base.
