Helio continues to lead mobile social networking with new MySpace on Helio application
LOS ANGELES, CA — July 19, 2007 — HELIO LLC announced today the launch of an enriched version of MySpace on Helio that delivers the fastest and most robust mobile MySpace experience on the market. Designed from the ground up by Helio and available exclusively on Helio’s newest device, Ocean, the new application is up to five-times faster than Helio’s original mobile MySpace service and rivals the speed, convenience and functionality of the Web - all at no additional cost to Helio All-In Members.
The new MySpace on Helio application is yet another example of Helio carving out a unique space in the wireless market through continued leadership in mobile social networking. This in turn has allowed Helio to post continued growth and usage metrics far above industry averages in most areas.
“Helio pioneered mobile social networking as the first operator to partner with MySpace,” said Sky Dayton, CEO of Helio. “Our exclusive new MySpace on Helio application is the best mobile MySpace service, making it easier than ever to connect, share and communicate with friends, and make new ones.”
“Helio was the first to take the MySpace experience mobile, and this application represents a ground up reinvention of MySpace on Helio with a richer user interface, amazing graphics and added features,” said Chris DeWolfe, CEO and co-founder of MySpace. “Helio is delivering social networking to mobile in new ways and letting the MySpace community share their experiences as they happen directly from their mobile like never before.”
