New programming from MTV and Nickelodeon Mobile to include the popular teen channel "The N" will air over Amp'd Mobile services starting this week, and a dedicated SpongeBob SquarePants channel will be aired Q2 2007 according to an announcement from MTV and Amp'd Mobile.

A SpongeBob SquarePants channel could actually keep my 9 year old still for an entire dentists appointment, or a doctor's office waiting room experience!   Many parents should be looking forward to this for the above reasons, as well as the complete elimination of the phrase " Are we there yet?" from roadtrip experiences with kids.

From the press release:

The SpongeBob SquarePants Amp'd TV channel will feature full length episodes from the number-one series on cable television for kids. Launched in July 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has since emerged as a pop culture phenomenon and one of the most popular series in kids' television history. Nearly 67.2 million viewers tune into the show each month, including 32.8 million Adults 18+. (Source: Nielsen Cume Data - November 2006).

Although Amp'ed is the newcomer on the block as a cellular service provider, they seem to be hitting the sweet spot when it comes to mobile entertainment.
