Playboy teams with Quattro Wireless for mobile venture

Thankfully, the previous rumors of a Playboy MVNO have been laid to rest (at least momentarily), but that hasn't stopped Playboy Enterprises from teaming up with Quattro Wireless "to provide Playboy content on mobile phones." Reportedly, "users of the mobile site will be able to view non-nude photos of Playboy playmates and read their personal interviews," and the phone-friendly site will also lead to music, game and book reviews along with access to the Playboy Advisor advice column. The content from the standard website is synced regularly to the mobile outlet through Quattro's GetMobile platform, and as expected, you'll find lots of targeted advertisements cluttering your diminutive screen should you chose to visit.

Playboy plotting cellphone entry strategy?

We're as tired as anyone with MVNO madness in the U.S., and the market reality is that there just isn't enough demand for too many cellphone brands. We suspect Amp'd Mobile and ESPN Mobile kinda know about this. Anyway, is a PLAYBOYRIZR in the works from Motorola or another cellphone maker with distinct bunny-ear branding? Motorola's glossy finish fetish is said to be the look Playboy would go for in a handset, and a standard cellphone feature suite (digicam, Bluetooth, MP3) looks to also be on tap for a Playboy phone as well. More info to come as it arrives.
