Brand with prepaid subs would seek added value services king with cool devices.Virgin Mobile USA and fellow Sprint M-VNO Helio may tie the knot after SK Telecom failed to get Nextel for $5 bn (and cyworld to outperform MySpace).A marketing wizzard, Korea's mobile leader is good at launching brands on the national market but building an international vehicle is a tremendous task. And investing in an ailing MNO on a huge / consolidating market would have been a waste of time and money.Now SKT has both*, and it should focus on a relevant partner to give its platforms the global reach they deserve.

Today Tellme (launched last July), a Microsoft subsidiary and provider of voice services for people and businesses, announced the addition of local 'on-the-go' information to its voice portal for mobile phones. Now instead of typing in a request or scrolling through menus to find information, people can simply hold down the 'talk' button, say a keyword and see the results on the phone's screen. Tellme is initially available on BlackBerry phones and will roll out on future versions of Helio phones.Mobile users surfing for information while on-the-go no longer need to type their location or starting point, Tellme uses global positioning system (GPS) technology to deliver local information right to the phone's screen.

Phone Arena reviews the Helio Mysto by Samsung. “Helio’s Mysto is a nice slider with lots of features but still on a budget. It’s camera is not the best and the keypad isn’t for heavy texters, but it has decent music player and internet browser.”

This week's indie music playlist features recent releases from musicians and groups that are creating buzz among the music bloggers.The single "No One's Gonna Love You" by Band of Horses appeared on their latest album released almost six months ago. Yet, it wasn't until yesterday (March 19, 2008) that the single was 'officially' released.The psychedelic and Middle Eastern influences of The Ruby Suns is apparent on their latest single and The Helio Sequence returns with a new single after a four year new material drought (but the wait was worth it for HS fans).Each of this week's songs and the artists who created them were selected not just because they are recent notable releases, but their unique talent and important contributions to the silly thing we like to call 'indie' rock, aka inde

All for You - Simon BullA Um Passo da VidaMe vejo a um passo da vida quando chego perto assim de você: O coração dispara em furiosa arritmia em busca dos seus lábios de mel. Tudo em mim é pulsação e aceleração, na busca incansável da sensação familiar mas inexplicável, que eu tanto quero e preciso: um pedacinho do seu céu (um universo tão meu) prestes a explodir em cores tão nossas. A proximidade do instante inconfundível Me transporta no tempo e no espaço e em segundos, orbito seu corpo e me agarro firme, para aterrisarem segurança, ofegante e contente, inebriado pelo seu rio de amor.Helio JennéPublicado originalmente em 20/2/2008,no site "Cantigas Para a Lua"

Gli Helio Sequence, duo di Portland (Oregon) formato da Brandon Summers (voce e chitarra) e Benjamin Weikel (batteria e tastiere), tornano con un nuovo lavoro. Questo quarto disco, "Keep Your Eyes Ahead", arriva dopo una pausa forzata che il gruppo ha dovuto fare a causa dei problemi del cantante, che rischiava di perdere la voce. Questo evento non solo ha comportato la momentanea sosta, ma ha portato anche una evoluzione ed un cambiamento nello stile della band. Il loro suono si è ammorbidito, il genere è mutato parzialmente. "Keep Your Eyes Ahead" si presenta come una miscela di pop-rock e folk (influenzato anche dallo stile di Bob Dylan), virando più verso uno o l'altro a seconda del brano. Il tutto condito dalla giusta dose di elettronica. E la voce di Summers non è spinta al massi
Whether you're a fan of Indy Car racing or Dancing with the Stars, you'll love this autographed replica helmet of the one worn by Helio Castroneves. This helmet is a full size replica and features authentic sponsor and team decals. You can buy this unique memorabilia on sale at Speedgear.com for $299.95 (reg. $795).
The Helio Sequence son un dúo de synth-folk compuesto por Brandon Summers (guitarra, voces) y Benjamin Weikel (teclados, batería). En este nuevo trabajo, "Keep Your Eyes Ahead" dan un paso adelante, realzando la voz de Summers, cuidando todos los arreglos, con un estilo mucho más relajado e intimista del que nos tenían acostumbrados hasta la fecha.Para este disco han realizado un sonido muy bien producido, manteniendo la esencia psicodélica del pasado de la banda, pero adentrándose hacia otros terrenos mucho más personales y transparentes, dejando esa faceta más distante y estándar repleta de armoniosa instrumentación con magnificos tonos de melancólia en la voz de Summers.De este modo, The Helio Sequence consiguen firmar quizás el mejor disco de su carrera hasta el momento, do

Helio Mysto has finally arrivedVincent got his Mysto by way of FedEx this morning, it looks great. He hasn't yet taken the time to review it, so this is just pictures of a more or less dead phone, there is one with the phone on, but that's it.If you click through the via link there are more photos and a video of the Unboxing. Well, it's a slider, it's bluish, thin, and it has a camera (I think I saw 2MP in the video).It also has GPS, and all the other goodness that Helio phones always come with. Oh, and for those of you doubting the power of the GPS in these phones, I was with my family last night, we hit a lot a fog and lost our GPS signal from our main GPS device, and visibility was about 4-5 feet in front of the vehicle, so I fired up my Fin and not only got a signal, but got us back on track.(Via SlashGear.)
Helio today announced the launch of its Helio Player PC software, which lets members manage their personal collection of music, videos and pictures on their computer then transfer to and from their Helio devices. Available at no extra charge to Helio members, this extension of Helio Music gives members the ability to also purchase songs on their PC then transfer them to a Helio device via USB, or purchase songs over-the-air via a nationwide high-speed 3G network for delivery to both their device and their PC for one price.Developed and hosted in partnership with RealNetworks Inc., Helio Player is the first PC application by a U.S. mobile carrier that allows users to import then manage music, videos and pictures in one place. A full-featured media manager, Helio Player's sleek user interface features three tabs for organizing Music, Video and Pictures. The application offers features including:
Helio (Helio, a MVNO joint venture between South Korea's SK Telecom and Earthlink) has taken the mobile YouTube experience to the next level. This innovative application offers people even more customization and provides them with instant access to interact with the YouTube community whenever and wherever they go..This new application is much better than Google's YouTube mobile site at m.youtube.com, as it allows its users to view YouTube videos, rate and comment upon them and upload newly recorded videos as well. Users will be able to share favorite videos with friends in the phone's contact list or to add a video to their list of Favorites and create new video playlists. Uploaded videos can be given a title, description, tags, category and be set to public or private. Only Helio allows members to also geo-tag video uploads from their mobile device. Using Ocean's built-in GPS capabilities, members can send GPS coordinates with their video to track where they were when everythin
Jennie Garth says Helio Castroneves, her fellow contestant on the U.S. competition series “Dancing with the Stars,” broke up with his fiancee months ago.
Castroneves Wednesday confirmed that he and Aliette Vazquez, the business executive he dated for six years, had broken up.
News of the split came one day after the race-car driver and his professional dance partner Julianne Hough were declared the winners of “Dancing with the Stars.”
“Well, actually, that is something that happened a long time ago. It was even something that started before the show premiered,” Garth told TV’s “Inside Edition. “It’s not true the rumor that he just broke it off and it’s because of Julianne.”
Garth emphasized there was no romance between Castroneves and Hough, who is 19.
“There was no romance going on between Helio and Julianne whatsoever,” Garth said. “For everyone to say that now makes me laugh.”
So, what ab

Cute Photos of Julianne Hough from Dancing With The Stars - Julianne Hough Picture Video Montage - DWTSAccording to People Magazine, "The two-time Indianapolis 500 winner [Helio Castroneves] and his fiancee, Aliette Vazquez, have split," leading to speculation that there is romance brooding between Helio Castroneves and Julianne Hough, the winning pair on this year's Dancing With The Stars.I might point out that a year ago similar speculation arose regarding Julianne Hough and her then partner Apolo Anton Ohno, following Julianne Hough's split with her then fiance, Zack Wilson. I must say that the similarity between the two stories is uncanny. You can read more about this here, in an article on The Mercury Interactive News.This might lead one to believe that the nature of dance and the natural romantic air that surrounds ballroom dance might lead people to jump to conclusions.;) However, Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff met on the show and are still dating...so we know it can reall
Helio Castroneves is the new champion of “Dancing with the Stars”. Helio and Julianne were one point behind Mel B and Maxim Chmerkovskiy but Helio earned more votes from viewers taking the mirrorball trophy.
“It will look so good between my two Indy 500 trophies,” he said. Later he admitted he was “shocked” by the victory: “I was not expecting it. Mel, she’s an incredible dancer.”
In an article on ABC.com, I learned that Dancing With The Stars Champ and two time Indy 500 Champ Helio Castroneves broke up with his fiancée after the finale of Dancing With the Stars.There has been speculation that perhaps there is a budding romance between Helio Castroneves and Julianne Hough his partner and teacher on Dancing With The Stars since the pair shared a kiss on the show's finale episode.

HOUSE OF GLITZ: WAY TO GO..!!
Tonight one more celebrity dancer will be voted off the show Dancing With The Stars, one of our favorite shows on television. Who is it going to be? No one knows for sure because since the public votes on the dancers, popularity figures into the equation--not just dancing skill!Our favorite is Helio Castroneves, and we just marvel at the way he's transformed himself into a professional- looking dancer from a race car driver. The rest of the celebrity dancers have a background in performing on stage, but not Helio. Therefore, it's all the more astonishing to watch him perform.Brazilian born Helio is made for the dancing stage, and the way he dances reminds us of a dancer from another era with his combination of charisma, elfish good looks, and graceful moves. Last night his foxtrot and cha-cha were perfection itself earning him two scores of 30 each from the judges, the highest you can receive from them!He's my choice to win, but there's always the chance that Marie with her huge fa

The Ocean is giving Helio members greater freedom and doing its part to unchain people from their PCs with the launch of the Helio File Viewer. Ocean users can now view, save and share documents and images while on-the-go, making Ocean more versatile than ever. Along with new attachment viewing capabilities, Helio is also announcing Mail for Microsoft Exchange 1.2, an upgraded version of its application that allows users wirelessly synchronize email, calendar and contacts from their companies' Microsoft® Exchange Server.

South Korea's SK Telecom Co. has taken control of Helio. The company announced today it allocated $70 million into its U.S. mobile venture with Internet service provider EarthLink Inc. The money allocated is more that Earthlink's and as a result SK will gain controlling rights in the company. SK Telecom and U.S. Internet provider Earthlink announced last July they would invest "up to $100 million" each to help their loss-making mobile joint venture. However, in September, SK announced it would invest up to $200 million to expand Helio's subscriber base through handset and service development and marketing activities.Helio was launched in 2006 as a MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) to target young and technology-savvy customers in U.S. market. However, the company has struggled to materialize its plans.
Helio and Julianne are great. Helio is really back in this performance (Cha Cha). The judges like it and they gave them a total score of 28. After last night’s dramatic elimination, they are still in contention and I’m looking forward to their next performance.
Named by his son because the dog enjoyed playing Tug of War . Sent to “Doggie Day Care” because, according to Helio, “He needed discipline.”

HOMESTEAD, Fla. – Helio Castroneves dutifully walks to the bus stop every weekday morning and late afternoon to drop off and pick up Tuggy. That’s his 18-month-old beagle.
Yes, Tuggy is not your typical latch-key canine. He attends school because “Tuggy needs some discipline,” the two-time Indianapolis 500 champion said.
Totally Dog will take care of those issues, but the training and day camp on the outskirts of Miami is more Club Med than boot camp. Canine campers have options from taking a plunge in the pool (in the shape, of course, of a Milk-Bone dog biscuit), digging in beach sand, agility course obstacles, sun bathing on the deck, or playing with toys. There’s also afternoon naptime.
“It’s like a big playground,” sai
The two time Indianapolis 500 champion, Helio Castroneves, is partnered with last years Dancing with the Stars champion partner, Julianne Hough.
If Floyd Mayweather can do the cha-cha, Helio Castroneves can definitely do the foxtrot.
Here’s Helio and Julianne last Tuesday night. They are so great together.
Did you watch Dancing With The Stars this week? I was one of the 18.3 million viewers who tuned in. I must say, I thought Helio Castroneves- the two-time winner of the Indianapolis 500 and Julianne Hough were fantastic. They made dancing look so easy. It’ made me want to break out a pair of Dance Shoes. I don't know about you, but I think Helio should win. He's a great dancer. And yes, Julianne too. But Helio... If you dream of Dancing With the Stars, you'll need a few dance lessons and a pair of Dance Shoes. Find the perfect pair of large size Dance Shoes at Your Feet Make You Unique.

With $440 million of partner investments and a business partnership between SK Telecom (SKM) and Earthlink (ELNK), Helio has led to one of the most successful mobile phone company startups in recent years. Helio primarily uses the networks of SK Telecom for the mobile phone service and Earthlink for the actual internet usage on the phones. “Helio is a new mobile brand custom-built for young, connected consumers.” Simply put, Helio appeals to a younger, more affluent consumer.
“Helio is the only mobile service provider to offer a custom mobile MySpace service that allows you to manage MySpace mail, comments and friend requests while on the go. We also offer photo blogging and posting directly from your Helio device to your MySpace account, including more photo storage on MySpace. Other unique services include the ability to gift, or buy for another Helio member, and beg, or request from another Helio member, content including 3D and multiplayer games.”

Helio has enabled push style email for any messages that are sent to your Helio Mail (@myhelio.com) account. To get is set up, just open your Helio Mail account on your phone and under Menu hit “Send/Receive”, then click yes to “enable new email alert notification”. Once activated everytime your receive a message you will get a small flame icon in your alert bar. Officially this push style email is just for the Helio Mail accounts but some are reporting that it is also working for Yahoo!, Windows Live and AOL. If you have a Helio device and test some other email providers (Gmail) let us know if it is working.
So just another great reason to look at Helio, for any email junkie push email is a great thing to have. Oh, and it’s just a matter of time before someone sues them over this. RIM? NTP?

This concept phone has been running amuck throughout the worldwide web with no offical information attached. And all I can say is god-damn. This is the first phone since the SK1 that I have drooled over. The design is off the hook and with the full QWERTY keyboard ther are subtle hints at smartphone capabilities. Either way this phone is buried in rumorville, and hopefully Helio will dig it out.

Helio Ocean Review - LaptopMag, “The 5.6-ounce, 0.9-inch thick Ocean isn’t exactly supermodel thin, but we dig the soft-touch finish and oval design. Sliding up the brilliant 2.4-inch display in landscape mode reveals a slightly cramped but perfectly usable QWERTY keyboard. The layout seemed a bit too wide at first, but we were typing quickly in no time. Sliding the screen up when you hold the phone vertically reveals a traditional dialpad, making the Ocean more comfortable for use when making calls than the Sidekick. Too bad the dialpad is so big and slippery; we constantly entered the wrong digits.”

The new Ocean from HELIO is definitely one of the hottest phones I've seen. Ever.It was released today in the US but I've asked around and just been told HELIO handsets don't work in UK, but I've contacted them and to ask if there's anything being done about that and I'll keep you updated.The Ocean is a tiny-text machine - it has a dual-slider, one with a QWERTY keyboard, and one with the regular phone buttons, so texting (and emailing and surfing the web) is extremely easy with this little beauty.It doesn't get much hotter than that!The HELIO Ocean even has GPS with Google Maps so you can find your way around. Also: an HTML browser, media player for music and videos AND a 2 mega pixel camera.It's actually perfect.I would purchase one of these on my trip to the US soon, but unless I can find some way of it working over here, it's not going to happen. I might just buy it for the time I'm in the US and just look at it when I get back. Haha.Do you know a way I can get a HELIO Oc

A new dual-slider with Helio branding on it was seen on the FCC web site today. Internally called the Pantech PN-810, the phone features a three-layer design. The top layer holds the main screen and function buttons. If the top is slid up, the middle layer reveals a standard number pad, and if the phone is slid sideways, it reveals the bottom layer's full qwerty keyboard for messaging. The
Hayden Panatierre - you may know her as the cheerleader ("Save the cheerleader. Save the world.") on NBC's Heroes - came out to attend the Helio Drift Launch Party in LA last night. Other celebs that walked away with this new mobile device included Rachel Leigh Cook, American Idol's Ace Young and James Franco.
So what is the Helio Drift? Well first, what is Helio? Helio is a new mobile service and the Drift is its latest device (they don't want you to think of it as a phone, but it's a Samsung phone) that adds to its already numerous offerings this time 'round with GPS enabled-services like Google Maps (helps you identify traffic, get directions, tell you where you are, etc.) and a new service called the Buddy Beacon. Instead of emailing or texting, you send out a signal to tell your friends where you are. Like emailing and texting took too long.

Helio LLC
adds the half billion

users to his wishlist.Among the key features included in the partnership : Yahoo! Search (dedicated button), Yahoo! Shortcuts, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! Messengers and all Yahoo! content channels, plus cross-marketing operations.
More partnerships should follow, but the not-yet-born M-VNO already presents a healthy face. Technical witchcraft plus marketing know-how... SK Telecom's DNA starts showing.

MySpace Mobile On Helio with Hero and Kickflip
" (20060220)
This isn't the latest George Lucas flick but a series of announcements made last week by Helio LLC (SK - Earthlink's Haryuwood M-VNO aimed at the younger generation)*.We knew SK Telecom planned a rather ambitious fun-based strategy to succeed in this year's highly competitive draft (Virgin & co). They seem to be delivering the goods : a key partnership with MySpace, and two exciting 3G EV-DO handsets :. the Hero by Pantech & Curitel : processing power optimized for music & video plus stereo speakers (MelOn anyone ?), a 2 megapixel cam with digital zoom & flash (straight from your mobile to your MySpace blog), a superb luminescent screen and even a removable memory.... the Kickflip by VK Mobile : a swivel handset with the Hero capabilities, said to be addictively ergonomic.The surprise comes from the deal with Murdoch's MySpace, a competitor to SK Telecom's Cyworld (even if the latter's popularity mustn't go far beyond LA's Koreatown this side of the Pacific Ocean). To me, t
SKT released their Q3 data. Since January the 1st, they've spent 50% of their overall CAPEX target ($1.5bn), but 60.7% of their W-CDMA CAPEX target ($359M for the first 9 months). That's for the MNO part of the job.
Regarding the virtual part,
SK Telecom
are also over-mega-hyper-teasing the future services of their
SKT-Earthlink
JV, which they branded
Helio
in honor of the young god of sun Helios. The drop-shaped logo and the website's iconography rather remind me of an utility company, but the company is claiming futility for the younger generation : innovative devices, entertainment, movies, music, you name it. Thanks to innovations 2 year ahead of the competition, no less than 3M of 18-32 year-old are supposed to bring a $2 bn annual turnover by the end of 2009. Well... that's what HELIO staff members have been selling to potential partners during a ten day roadshow across the US.
