This alignment allows guests to have a personal tour guide right in their wireless phones along with reliable new services at the parks. Early next year guests will also use Verizon Wireless’ technology when experiencing Disney’s Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure, an ultra-interactive attraction coming to Epcot in Walt Disney World Resort.</span>

Took about 30 minutes to complete.

It gives them a little more to do at Epcot, plus it's not intrusive on the Epcot experience for the older guest.
