Vodafone 3G Data Card Wins Award

26th February , 2004

Europe France : At the 2004 GSM Association Awards Ceremony in Cannes, France, yesterday evening, Vodafone was awarded one of the mobile industry's most prestigious awards, Best Mobile Application or Service: Corporate Market, for its Mobile Connect Card.

Best Mobile Application or Service: Corporate Market
First launched in April 2003, the Vodafone Mobile Connect Card allows you to get online via your laptop computer from almost any location without the need to plug in your mobile or find the nearest jack. Simply install the software, plug in the datacard (including your Vodafone SIM) and you're away! As a fully integrated connectivity solution for notebook users, the Vodafone Mobile Connect Card provides quick, simple and secure access to existing business information systems such as email, corporate applications, company intranets and the internet, whenever and wherever it is needed.

Peter Bamford, Chief Marketing Officer, Vodafone, said:

"It is very gratifying for Vodafone's Mobile Connect Card to be recognised by the industry in this way. Earlier this month Vodafone announced the commercial launch of its 3G services with the Vodafone Mobile Connect 3G/GPRS datacard, Europe's first high speed lap top datacard. With this enhancement to the service, coupled with its reliability and ease of use, the Mobile Connect Card will continue to enhance the efficiency of businesses thereby delivering better services to our customers and more value to our shareholders."
