TeliaSonera launches a unique package with embedded mobile broadband in laptops

TeliaSonera today announced the agreement with Dell around a joint product offer
with Dell notebooks integrated with TeliaSonera 3G/HSPA services.

“This is one of the important major steps in developing the mobile broadband
market, both for enterprise and consumer customers”, says Kenneth Karlberg,
President and Head of Business Area Mobility Services in TeliaSonera. “Now we
have really reached the point where you can connect your laptop to the mobile
network and surf on the Internet at very much the same speed as with normal
broadband access in the fixed network. The new joint product offering with the
SIM-card integrated into Dell notebooks fits in very well with our Turbo 3G
roll-outs and the offering will make a difference both for enterprise and
private customers”.

The product offer with embedded mobile broadband in notebook PCs will be
launched in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland. No external connection card is
required and the service enables high-speed wireless access to the Internet in
these countries. It is anticipated that this will extend to other countries
covered by the TeliaSonera network in 2008.
“This agreement further extends our commitment to provide Dell customers with
“anytime, anywhere” mobile broadband access and to deliver truly mobile
technology solutions that are simple to use and implement and meet their
business requirements”, says Jeff Kimbell, Vice President of Marketing, Dell
EMEA. 

The service will be available on the latest generation of Dell notebooks which
boast optional integrated High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) wireless
broadband capability. TeliaSonera will extend its sales channels and will start
selling mobile data subscriptions through Dell in the Nordic and Baltic region. 

Notes:
The term Mobile Broadband means mobile services delivered using High Speed
Packet Access (HSPA) also known as turbo-3G, Wideband-CDMA, also known as 3G or
EDGE (Enhanced Data for GSM Evolution, also known as 2.75G) air interface
technologies.

HSPA (HighSpeed Packet Access) significantly improves mobile transfer of data
from the internet and intranet than basic 3G speeds. 

Mobile broadband is available on all Latitude notebooks excluding the D520 and
D531; all Vostro notebooks except Vostro 1000; all Inspiron notebooks and
Precision M4300
