HELLO FROM HELIO
At Helio, we’re all about doing wireless a little differently. (And by differently, we mean better.)
We started Helio in 2006, and since day one, we’ve delivered innovative, best-in-class features and services to our loyal members. From GPS services like Buddy Beacon and Garmin to the Ultimate Inbox to the best mobile YouTube and MySpace experiences, we’ve lead the way in the industry. And we’re still ahead of the pack.
If that’s not enough, Helio’s lineup of exclusive devices has kept critics and members raving. And our unique All-In plans offer an incredible value.
And now that we’re part of Virgin Mobile USA, we’re about to take things to the next level. By combining Helio’s cutting-edge technology and straightforward post-paid plans with Virgin Mobile’s award-winning customer experience and flexible Plans Without Annual Contracts, we’re working to deliver a whole new kind of mobile experience. One that’s not defined by the limits and compromises typical of the wireless industry, but driven by the originality and imagination that customers have come to expect from both companies.
Now that Helio and Virgin Mobile have teamed up, you can plan to have it all .
What’s Happening These Days
WHERE®
WHERE on Mysto offers a whole new way of getting location-based content and information. Accessed directly through the Helio SURF screen, WHERE offers a wide range of customized widgets, each with a different focus. Info like where the cheapest gas station, the closest pub, or a local golf course is, plus localized weather and a whole lot more.
TELLME®
Speak and ye shall find. Tellme offers voice-activated localized GPS-based search results. Once Tellme finds your location, you just say the name or category you’re looking for. When you get your results, you can call, see a map, get directions or send the info as a text message.
