Self-service content machines for mobile phones

nReach, a subsidiary of SmartServ has reached an agreement with Merit Industries (a touch-screen device manufacturer) to develop and introduce self-service content machines that download content into mobile phones, according to Wireless IGN Insider.

The vending machines will be located in wireless retailers, airports and train stations, restaurants, malls, and electronics outlets.

"nReach vending machines will create new revenue opportunities for content owners -- movie distributors, record companies, and game developers -- by reaching customers with ringtones, graphics and games who would not otherwise be exposed to such content."
