Helio is way over priced Ampd was pretty cheap compared to others]]>Jun 2nd 2007 9:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/
Ampd comparitiely had very little to offer except for "lower" prices, content for tweens/teens, and awkward ads. :)]]>Jun 3rd 2007 5:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 2nd 2007 10:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 2nd 2007 10:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 2nd 2007 11:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/but i don't think theres any successful non-budget mvnos]]>Jun 3rd 2007 12:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/

Although in this case I'd say they're *cough* exaggerating growth to put the best face possible on things. But that's an uninformed take on the situation, heck, they could even be telling the truth.]]>Jun 3rd 2007 12:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jul 3rd 2007 3:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/
I never expected AMP'D to be doing so poorly but then again, who is really gonna buy a cellphone to watch downloads of old has-been MTV shows

Beavis and Butthead is available on DVD now. ]]>Jun 3rd 2007 12:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 1:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 1:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 1:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 7:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 9:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 11:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 12:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jun 3rd 2007 10:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/
Leaving Amp'd to choose growth without a sound financial risk management program in place (open credit approvals), leaving them with a delinquency rate of 50%, unheard of by any business standards. This can only be accomplished through bad management. Amp'd will try to blame it's customer base for managements failing, but the truth is Amp'd was a good idea in the hands of incapable people.

Amp'd will be absorbed by one of its competitors, more than likely Verizon, but don't close the door on Sprint/Nextel another management team incapable of addressing customer needs but they are smart enough to manage financial risk.]]>Jun 6th 2007 11:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/-real customer ]]>Jun 29th 2007 3:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jul 2nd 2007 5:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/ampd-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/Jul 12th 2007 5:03AM
