The three new Business Everywhere with Laptop bundles each include an unlimited data allowance and a whopping 500 WiFi minutes per month, which can be used at over 10,000 UK hotspots. On top of this, 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 £35 to £45 per month for a 24 month contract, with the price varying according to the choice of laptop.
Paul Tollet, vice president for business at 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 WiFi minutes. Businesses can literally be up and running the moment they open the box. This is another fantastic example of Orange listening to its customers and providing solutions to meet their needs”.
Following the announcement of its consumer offer in July, Orange is working with HP for its first connected business laptop offering.
Tollet continued: “Laptops are a natural extension to our existing product portfolio. We now offer our customers a totally flexible approach to business. Whether they want to manage their mobile working with a simple, affordable SIM only tariff, want email on their phone, or need total business laptop functionality, Orange can deliver it. Our Business Everywhere with Laptop offer is part of our commitment to evolving the communications market by offering new ways for customers to connect with the people and things that matter most to them.”
