Sprint PowerVision More Entertaining Than Cab Ride

OK, so maybe we don’t like the new Sprint Together With Nextel thing but we absolutely love the company’s Entertainment Anytime cab ride experience that promotes Sprint’s Powervision network which consists of video, news, music, games TV and other goodies for your cell phone. This little piece of amusement resembles that of HBO’s Taxi Cab Confessions except there’s no confessing and it’s all G rated. Basically, the keys on your keyboard become devices through which to add a bit of entertainment to a usually boring cab ride all while making an analogy to Sprint’s far better choice of entertainment on its cell phone network. Perhaps we’ll forgive them for all that yellow and inane combo-branding strategy.
