Amp'd Mobile claims 70% subscriber growth, launches Amp'd Q Smartphone
@PhoneDog
Of note is the bullet point at the bottom of the press release mentioning that the "Amp'd Live experience" now reaches "nearly 30 million mobile users in North America and Asia." Amp'd has been doing big business creating and distributing content overseas, and is now beginning to convert that expertise into strong ARPU (average revenue per user) numbers stateside. While the average US carrier rakes in just over $50/user per month in revenue, Amp'd is claiming ARPU of twice that at more than $100.
Businesses, of course, need to grow and as such Amp'd today unveiled their version of the Motorola Q smartphone. Dressed up in black and featuring a custom Flash Lite-based user interface (but the same ol' Windows Mobile 5 OS - where's the Crossbow?), the Q Amp'd Edition comes with a 256mb microSD memory card to store all those songs and video clips you'll be spending that monthly c-note per to download. The phone is available now for $199 with a service agreement.
