LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The Walt Disney Co. on Tuesday launched the U.S. version of its mobile phone service for families that allows parents to regulate when, how long and to whom their children talk on cell phones.

Disney Mobile, which is carried in the United States by Sprint Nextel Corp., also blocks kids from using their phones until they respond to messages that parents have flagged as urgent, and has a built-in satellite tracking feature to locate the cell phone.
