As reported by TechCrunch earlier today, Montreal's Airborne Mobile has been acquired by Cellfish Media.

The newly formed Airborne Studios will combine Cellfish Media's original-content publishing activities with Airborne Mobile's distribution of branded mobile content and applications.

In January of 2009, Airborne Mobile closed of a $2 Million growth financing round with iNovia Capital. The injection of capital will be used to finance Airborne’s new initiatives in mobile media and other business opportunities.

Airborne is a 10+ year pioneer in the mobile content industry, firmly-entrenched in partnerships with every major North American wireless carrier as well as with high-profile consumer brands like Fox’s Family Guy and Food Network, Airborne is enjoying a renaissance despite the current economic environment.
