The Associated Press is expected to announce today the selection of Verve Wireless to provide the technology for the AP Mobile News Network, an advertising-supported, multimedia news service tailored
to smart phones.
Debuting later this quarter, the network will provide mobile users with a single point of access to local, national and international news. It's the first product
released by AP's Digital Cooperative, an initiative designed to find new digital outlets for the news and information.
The network will include local, national and international news as well as
vertical content from the AP, such as sports, entertainment and business news. The network offers participating AP members the ability to generate revenue through local and national
advertising.
