  • Floppy Mobile is an MVNO wireless carrier launched on January 14, 2008. It was founded by Emmanuel Banks. On January 14, 2008, Emmanuel Banks and Brandon Lancaster announced to the media that they had entered into agreement to launch a new US mobile provider. This provider would operate as a mobile virtual network operator and would lease network capacity from Sprint. The premise of this new company would be to bring advanced mobile phones in service from SK Telecom's home market of Korea to the US wireless market, where such advanced phones had been noted, by many, to be lacking. Floppy Mobile, as it was to be called, would market itself to the younger demographic, promoting itself using the latest in cutting-edge handset technology. They plan to avoid taking on the major US wireless carriers directly, and instead they intend to carve out a niche for themselves with technology-savvy consumers. In addition to leasing capacity from Sprint Nextel, in the event that Sprint Nextel isn't available, their phones will go into "roaming" mode to operate on Alltel, Verizon Wireless and US Cellular, however, data services are not available while roaming. Roaming is indicated by an R to the left of the signal strength indicator. Though Floppy Mobile offers unlimited data plans, there is a "reasonable limit" of 160 megabytes of EVDO data usage per month. Going over that limit is considered excessive and abusive, and could potentially result in the termination of the user's account.
