NEW ESPN PHONE - NO SALISBURY ACCESSORY: Apparently inspired by George W. Bush’s recommittment to the war in the Iraq, the ASSOCIATED PRESS reports that ESPN is relaunching its previously-failed mobile phone service.

The service will relaunch in March and be available on Verizon’s “V Cast” phones. Content will include an ESPN channel with much of the same programming as what’s aired on the broadcast network.

Surprisingly, there’s no word of a role for ESPN’s Sean Salisbury in the relaunch of service, despite his obvious enthusiasm for introducing the wonderment of camera phone technology to co-workers.
