In fact Amp'd is requested more than Helio among multi-carrier agents/sub-dealers. Oh and to my knowledge VC "invest" the sum they committ to the venture and then take stocks in the company. Sometimes they'll ran the company.</p> There are a lot of info requests and curiosity about Amp’d mobile according to my friend who works for Trisys, LLC, a master dealer for Amp’d and Helio.

When a VC says it will invest $107M in a firm. Is that investment just like a personal investment? i.e Cash being transferred from checking/savings account to the firms bank account. Or is it just a promise to help out the firm over a period of time. Just curious.</p> First off i am very new to this VC/investment and thus I have a question?
