Disney (and ESPN) going mobile?

Disney Mobile

They've been hinting at it for months, but now Rafat Ali gets the scoop that Disney is definitely getting into the wireless game and will be launching both a Disney-branded and an ESPN-branded cellphone service sometime in the next several months. They'll actually just be leasing space on somebody else's network (like how Virgin Mobile leases space from Sprint), but at the very least expect plenty of cutesy Disneyfied handsets for kids, though we just hope they do something more clever than just slap an ESPN logo on the ESPN phones.
