As previously mentioned on Mobilitysite, Blyk the proposed Virtual Mobile phone network for teenagers in the UK has found a network. And it's those crazy guys at Orange who are going to provide the backend.

For teenagers prepared to be spammed to death by the big advertising companies, they'll get free calls to moan at each other about how their parents hate them, and how nobody understands them anyway...

Or maybe that's me being cynical... at the least it should shake up the UK mobile phone market a bit.. It will be interesting to see how it effects Orange's PAYG business.. which would seem to suffer from the deal.

It will be interesting to see how successful that is in the UK. I am sure other companies will be watching very carefully!
