Mobile operator Orange announced a pan-European distribution deal with the Disney Channel to deliver the U.S. cable network's content to wireless handsets. Disney Channel series including "Recess," "That's So Raven" and "Kim Possible" are already available to Orange's British subscribers; in coming months, the service will spread to customers across the carrier's European footprint. In addition to full episodes of live-action and animated Disney Channel series, the programming slate will also expand in the weeks ahead, encompassing short films and feature-length productions.
