GameStop Mobile will not be an MVNO; company still testing sales of prepaid SIMs from other carriers

GameStop Mobile will not be an MVNO; company still testing sales of prepaid SIMs from other carriers

In a recent interview with us, GameStop CEO Paul Rainer confirmed that GameStop Mobile - an entity that appeared to be on the brink of selling prepaid GSM SIM cards to GameStop patrons - is nothing more than "a mockup." If you'll recall, an entire website launched back in May showcasing what appeared to be GameStop's portal for hawking SIM cards that relied on AT&T's network to provide service. At the time, the collective held its breath awaiting a confirmation of truth - after all, it's not exactly easy to pry a data-only SIM out of AT&T's hands, particularly one that's free of a contract.
