Jump Mobile
Jump Mobile was a subsidiary of Leap Wireless International, Inc. The pre-paid wireless service was not an MVNO, as it used its parent company’s CDMA 1xEV-DO network to provide pre-paid wireless services to its customers.
Jump Mobile offered customers unlimited incoming calls from anywhere in the world, outgoing calls at 10 cents per minute, and unlimited incoming and outgoing text messages within the U.S.. The pre-paid service included voicemail, caller ID, call waiting, three-way calling, and offered features such as directory assistance, ringtones, games, and wall papers. Customers could send international text messages from $.10 to $.15 per message and could call internationally from $.05 a minute.
Jump Mobile launched in its first market in 2005, and discontinued services and operations in 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words jump and/or mobile:
“Men are afraid to rock the boat in which they hope to drift safely through life’s currents, when, actually, the boat is stuck on a sandbar. They would be better off to rock the boat and try to shake it loose, or, better still, jump in the water and swim for the shore.”
—Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
“From three to six months, most babies have settled down enough to be fun but aren’t mobile enough to be getting into trouble. This is the time to pay some attention to your relationship again. Otherwise, you may spend the entire postpartum year thinking you married the wrong person and overlooking the obvious—that parenthood can create rough spots even in the smoothest marriage.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
