Disney Mobile

For those that haven’t heard, The Walt Disney Internet Group (WDIG) and Sprint announced on July 6 the creation of the first national U.S. wireless phone service specifically designed for families. The service, called Disney Mobile, will use the Sprint nationwide PCS network and is slated to launch next year.

Disney Mobile plans to offer a comprehensive mobile service, including wireless voice service, exclusive handsets and a package of features and applications tailored to meet the unique communication needs of families. The service will also include a range of entertainment content for the family.

Rent the Movie?

Well, it looks like on November 11, one of my favorite musicals, Rent, will be coming to the big screen. Rent-The Movie looks like a great movie and appears to hold true to the original. I can’t wait!

A Week’s Worth of Updates

Well, It has been like almost a week since I last posted. A lot is going on right now in my life. I have been busy with hanging out with friends, going to movies, making plans for Disneyland, and work. This past couple of days have been very busy at the Magic Kingdom as one can expect on a holiday weekend. The park closed for a few hours on Monday but other than that, all went well. As soon as I got out of work, I waited for Patrick to finish over at Outdoor Foods and then the two of us headed over to Epcot to meet up with Travis, Paul, Johnnie and Caroline. Started off with a Dos XX in Mexico and then just walked the World Show case until it was time for Illuminations: Reflections of Earth with a special Tag for the 4th of July. Let’s just say that for those that saw last years Holiday Tag, you will know what to expect. Didn’t see them, check out the following post from the archives:

Simply amazing as usual. No one can top WDW Fireworks for the holidays it seems. After the show, we went off to Travis’ condo in Celebration for home-made chili by our host. Travis, great job on the chili. It was great. I’ll have to get the recipe from you.

Yesterday, I was off and was supposed to have a meeting at work but the meeting was cancelled due to some people being sick so I went and got my haircut instead and killed time walking the Emporium and Main Street USA until Patrick got there. We did a couple of rides at Magic Kingdom and then we headed off to Disney-MGM Studios for the evening and got a nice dinner at the 50s Prime Time Cafe. It’s a cute place but I still like Wilderness Lodge better. After that, we ended up coming back to my place and jsut relaxed and watched some TV and movies before calling it a night. It was a lot of fun.

As for today, I am waiting for my roommate to clear out of the shower so I can get ready myself and then I am off to Classic Honda to take a look at some new cars before my meeting today at Pleasure Island with the Ops Manager for Guest Relations. Well, I’m out for now.
