Helio Announces Launch Phones, MySpace Mobile
Target Audience
Anyone else find it funny that Helios is a high-high-end cellular provider and one of their flagship services will be mySpace, which caters to 13 and 14 year old poets and emogoths that naturally do not have any money?
Is the irony lost on everyone but me? ;)

You're right -- the marketing of the Myspace phone is geared towards those demographics, but that's what makes the marketing brilliant -- those people you mentioned are the people with a large amount of disposable income. I understand your point, Phydeaux, but how many times have you seen a 13 or 14 year old with a brand new phone? And how many "emogoths" have iPods, RAZR's and other expensive gadgets?

Isn't it something of a $500 activation fee?
$500 something a month? (I can't recall, I just remember those figures for some reason) Even an emogoth that buys a new iPod every iteration, or every 8 months or so, doesn't put out that kind of cash.

who said myspace.com caters to 13 and 14???? You guys are wrong 85% of myspace age group is 20 to 30..... Trust me Helio is the next technology... Just like how it changed from Pagers(TEXT) to Cell Phone(Voice).... Now it's 3G(DATA).... The reason why they are targeting ages from 20 to 30 is because they are capable of adapting technology faster than other age group........

Oh, yes, my mistake. Here, I'll errata it:
MySpace caters to 13 and 14 year olds and pedophiliac 20-30 year olds.
Better? ;)

Lol wow your dumb as hell.
1) Im 20, 100% of my friends on myspace are within 2 years of my age. So dont start with that 14 year old thing, not to mention myspace didnt incorperate the option of having users under the age of 18 until about 2 months ago. People under 18 claiming to be 18 or older are no longer myspace's responsibility.
2)Your price quote was rediculously off, i could have guessed a better number and been more correct than you on that one, but just to prove my point i called Helio this evening and quoted myself. Total came up to about 450$, and this was the phone itself, activation, and even a 150$ deposit since my credit isnt the greatest, not to mention the first month of service included with that cost.
