Alltel Wireless and Melodeo launched Axcess Mobilcast
service. The service enables Alltel Wireless customers
to easily search and listen to thousands of podcasts on their wireless phones for a monthly subscription of $3.99. Alltel Wireless is the first company in the United States to bring this service to market.
Axcess Mobilcast offers continuously updated podcast episodes and radio shows from popular sources such as NPR and CNN, as well as thousands of independent
podcasts from all over the world. The programs are short in duration and cover a wide range of subjects including comedy, music, sports and politics.
"As the wireless phone continues to become a media hub, Alltel Wireless is committed to providing its customers with the most entertaining, useful and innovative applications available," said Wade McGill, senior vice president of
wireless product management for Alltel Wireless. "Podcasts have rapidly become a part of daily life for millions of Americans, and by partnering with Melodeo to bring Podcasts to wireless phones, our customers can now listen to their favorite programs wherever they go."
Axcess Mobilcast is currently available on several popular Alltel phones. A simple interface allows listeners to browse categories or search programs with no wait time. Podcasts are
streamed or downloaded and can be added to the "My Favorites" channel with one click.
