Hmm... so, I take it these are like previews? That sounds cool as long as it doesn't cost anything, but I'm sure it does.

"CellToons will be available to Sprint PCS Vision customers on channel 18 for $4.95 a month."

As for it being previews, it would appear not according to the press release. "CellToons features one- to three-minute animated shorts from some of the world's most brilliant and innovative animators and writers"

don't these phones only display about 1-3 frames/sec. that's crap. who wants to pay for a couple of minutes of maybe 10 frames total of a title that maybe runs a full 23 minutes? great idea ADV!

I have no idea on the frame rate on most phones but still the screen on most phones is so damn small.

Remember that ADV is only one of the content providers. This is not specifically an ADV project. They just signed on for it.
