"The solution is compact and easy to use," he adds.
Customers can purchase a Dell Latitude D620 notebook with built-in 3G HSPDA data card linked to Vodacom's 3G HSDPA network. Customers simply need a Vodacom SIM card and a data contract subscription in order to access the Internet or their company network at fast access speeds.
"In partnering with Dell, Vodacom is the first operator in South Africa to launch this new mobile connectivity solution which provides our customers with even more flexibility and accessibility to information, while at the same time increasing productivity on the move," comments Shameel Joosub, MD of Vodacom South Africa.
Dell is allegedly the first major personal computer supplier to announce multiple wireless carrier partnerships in multiple regions, including agreements with Vodafone initially in France, Germany and the UK - and now also with Vodacom in South Africa.
"This laptop is designed for users who seek performance, mobility and convenience. Combined with an embedded 3G HSDPA card, it is truly a multi-functional computer that does away with the inconvenience of separate external devices - answering every expectation of technological advancement. Customers also get a Three Year International Next Business Day Warranty - combined with onsite support", says Stewart van Graan, MD of Dell South Africa.
