"Sonopia, launched publicly on Apr. 2, promises to turn any group�be it a church, sports team, or nonprofit�into what's known in industry parlance as a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). Setup is simple, says Christensen. Working through Sonopia, a group signs up online and can offer wireless service delivered via the Verizon Wireless network and can provide branded handsets and a wide selection of calling packages. Sonopia also lets operators offer personalized content and tailored social networking features such as blogging and photo-sharing."
This sounds like a great idea. I would like to see more carriers supported and not just Verizon, but it's a start. I imagine we'll be seeing a lot of local clubs and charity organizations picking up on this. We could even do a Smartphone Thoughts MVNO - Now that would be cool.
