BT has launched a “BT Datazone” which enables an organisation’s mobile employees to connect wherever they are. The product combines Wi-Fi, 3G and GPRS connectivity in a single, intelligent package.
Users can access the internet and check emails via 7,800 BT Openzone Wi-Fi hotspots in the UK and Ireland. If they are on the move, they can check them via a 3G or GPRS connection.
The service costs £49 for 4,000 minutes. It provides Wi-Fi access via BT Openzone and users can download up to 75 meg of information via 3G or GPRS. The service can also be used overseas.
Chris Clark, head of BT’s Converged Mobility Operations said: “BT Datazone provides the key to truly mobile working, enabling people to download files, check email or access their corporate network from virtually anywhere in the UK and abroad”.
