(Being the A&F type I had to go look them up...)
IMO, the phone "requirement" (which has no technical basis whatsoever, as zero-rating MyFaves calls is still done in the billing system, not at the handset level, based on several reports from people who have moved their SIM from a MyFaves phone to a non-MyFaves phone) will be MyFaves' undoing. As it stands now, they are running a very strong risk of alienating a lot of their high-ARPU data customers, and Sidekick (no MyFaves on the SK3 -- what ARE they thinking???) and Palm users in particular, and are confusing and frustrating even people with standard phones who have to buy new phones for a *voice plan* -- something I've never heard of any carrier forcing people to do except in certain acquisition situations (read: Cingular blue) and when carriers change from one air interface to another. I like the idea of the interface, but it shouldn't be required!

As for the new slogan and font: like the abundance of pink, it does make them stand out somewhat from stodgier carriers like VZW. Now all we need is a carrier that likes green... :p
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
