    Actually, Cingular was running trivia contests and announcements (read: ads) to their subscribers over their phones running up to the release of Spider-Man this summer. It was opt in, but a vision of what's to come.

    Well...now the Sprint cell phone commericial that I saw with Sega's Super Monkey Ball makes sense. I can't wait to get this. I need more games to ignore my work with!

    Right sentiment, but your facts are wrong. First, Sprint doesn't use Nokia phones at all, so this news has nothing to do with Spting. Second, Sprint PCS Vision enabled phones can already play Super Monkey Ball. It's pretty cool. Go check it out at your authorizes Sprint reseller.

    Um.. if you look at "7" and "5" on the phone they're the only buttons raised up, in red and have a circle around the numbers so I'm guessing that they're the actual "buttons" for the games, not the rest of the keypad...

    Then again, what the hell do I know?
