Orange Bundles Mobile Broadband with
Laptop
Targeting small and medium businesses (SMBs), Orange – a service of France
Telecom Group – has introduced its new mobile broadband and laptop offer
while joining hands with Hewlett Packard. SMB customers can now sign up to
a new Orange Business Everywhere mobile broadband package and take a
laptop as well. The offer includes an unlimited data allowance and 500
Wi-Fi minutes per month, which can be used at over 10,000 UK hotspots.
Customers
will receive a business-spec HP laptop with Microsoft Windows Vista
Business. Depending on the package chosen, the laptop will come either
embedded with an Orange SIM or with an Option ICON 225 USB dongle, meaning
customers can get online instantly without the need for a fixed line
internet connection.
The new
packages range from GBP35 - GBP45 per month for a 24 month contract, with
the price varying according to the choice of laptop.
Paul
Tollet, VP Business, Orange UK said: "In the current economic climate,
businesses are demanding the capability to work flexibly at a reasonable
price. Our Business Everywhere with Laptop gives customers all the tools
they need to do their jobs in the way that they want - a business grade HP
laptop, unlimited UK data access and inclusive Wi-Fi minutes.”
The
connectivity at UK hotspots is being given through partnerships with BT
Openzone and The Cloud.
Following
the announcement of its consumer offer in July, Orange is working with HP,
a leading laptop manufacturer, for its first connected business laptop
offering.
Business
Everywhere with laptop is available direct from Orange through the Online
Shop, telesales, and the business sales team.
