Hey! I'm just wondering if anyone has purchased the new ESPN phone that I have been hearing so much about lately... If anyone has one or has used one before, could you let me know what you think of it and if it worth investing in. Thanks!

As I told you on another sports forum, the ESPN Mobile phone powered by Sprint, is gone as of December 31st, 2006.
The new carrier is Verizon, but they do not have an ESPN phone per se. It is only that the receive ESPN content via something called V-Cast. You get to watch ESPN videos and hear audio directly on your phone.
I went down to the local Verizon store for a complete demonstration -- I left very unimpressed. The discontinued ESPN Mobile Phone by Sprint was 10X better. Unfortunately, there were not enough subscriptions so they canceled it.
