components. Uwe Bergheim ( INSET ), Chief Executive Officer of E-Plus: “The purchase of the MobilCom UMTS sites brings us many advantages. We are getting the right UMTS infrastructure at a fair price, but mainly we save time in the roll-out. This strengthens our position in the market." E-Plus will fulfil the conditions of the regulatory authority for telecommunication and postal services and provide UMTS network coverage for 25 per cent of the population in Germany by the end of the year. |
