Members can sign up for alerts when music for a specific artist is added to the store. Helio also announced it expects to reach 100,000 members early in the second quarter.

Well...

...as soon as the .99 cent PC downloads begin, you can forget people downloading the $1.99 phone-only tracks.

What's up with the different prices for handset/PC downloads?

Why should it matter if you download a song directly to your handset, or PC, whatever the price is, it should be the SAME.

But anyway, I'm glad that Helio is surviving, I like Helio.

Why have a phone boasting onlime commuities and have to use T9?

Get with it Hell-io.
