Virgin Mobile is one of the arms of the Virgin Group
<http://www.virgin.com/home.aspx>, owned by the inimitable Englishman,
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Branson> Sir Richard Charles
Nicholas Branson.

He started by opening Virgin Records, which has grown into one of the
major chains of music outlets.  He started an airline, expanded the
record store into a music label, and since added a phone company.

He has been into making world records, ballooning long distances, and such.

Note that in the Canadian operations, the Virgin Mobile organization
is buying time on the Bell Mobility network.
