Vodafone has signed up with Rupert Murdoch's News Corp to put MySpace on its mobiles.

The pair announced Vodafone mobiles will shortly come with MySpace Mobile pre-loaded, although users will also be able to download the software to their existing handsets.

The service is expected to launch in April or May, a Vodafone spokesman said, and will necessitate a monthly subscription. No pricing details are available yet.

MySpacers will be able to upload photos, post blog updates, reply to messages and manage their list of friends via the mobile service.

Vodafone will be the first European operator to offer MySpace Mobile, which debuted first in the US and is now available on two networks, Cingular and Helio.
