T-Mobile has launched a new
Mobile Broadband and included (free) Asus Eee PC 904HD netbook bundle, which costs £24 per month on a 24 month minimum contract and includes a USB Modem (Dongle) stick, 200 FREE texts and a 3 GigaByte (GB) monthly data usage allowance.
Readers may recall that the operator was forced to abandon its previous Acer Travel 5320 laptop bundle, which was priced slightly higher at £30 per month, during October because Acer were unable to meet the demand for its package:
Asus Eee PC 904HD Specification :
8.9" LCD Screen
Intel Mobile CPU & Chipset
80 GB HDD
10/100 Mbps Ethernet
WiFi 802.11b/g
1024MB DDR2 RAM
0.3 Mega Pixel Video camera
Built-in microphone
3 x USB 2.0 Connector(s)
1 x VGA Connector(s)
Inner protection bag
Windows Live Suite
MS Works
2 years UK Warranty (Collect and Return)
Windows XP (Preloaded)
The Asus Eee PC 904HD would usually retail for around £250 inc. VAT in the shops, while a comparable
Mobile Broadband package with 3GB's of monthly data allowance would cost roughly £15 per month by itself. Naturally that extra £10 per month over 24 months essentially pays for the laptop. Be aware though that the USB Modem would typically cost extra outside of this bundle.
