It looks like msn is trying to buy their way into infospace territory....the deal with nextel that msn mobile has is based on a 600 million dollar investment by msn in nextel....msn mobile is also available as a hotsite on verizon even thought infospace powers the main wireless verizon site...they probably paid a bit for that as well although I can find no reference to what that cost msn...msn mobile has none of the new features infospace plans to offer but they have al kinds of deals with hardware people and of course they have windows for mini handheld pcs so they are going to eventually get some market share...at the moment however it would seem msn is a far second and losing competitor to infospace..... sandintoes I would think the answer to your question is immediately.
