T-Mobile selects Option's multi-wireless data card

September 20, 2004

OPTION, the wireless technology company, and T-Mobile, subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, announced that it has selected Option's GlobeTrotter FUSION broadband wireless data card to give the mobile professional easy and seamless access to T-Mobile's UMTS/GPRS and Wi-Fi networks.

In June of this year Option announced GlobeTrotter FUSION, the world's first 3-in-1 data card combining 3G, GPRS and Wi-Fi 802.11b/g technologies on a single PC Card, T-Mobile's choice for the GlobeTrotter FUSION clearly demonstrates the market need for broadband wireless data card solutions supporting multiple access bearer technologies.

Today's mobile professional requires ubiquitous wireless access. Option's GlobeTrotter FUSION is the only broadband wireless data card solution available on the market today that fully satisfies the requirement for ubiquitous access, whilst enhancing the user data experience and convenience.

Jan Callewaert, CEO at Option: "Over the years we have built a solid business relationship with T-Mobile and I am very pleased that they have yet again selected a GlobeTrotter product for the launch of their new data card. T-Mobile's decision to market our GlobeTrotter FUSION 3-in-1 data card is an important milestone for both our companies as it marks the third such product in the GlobeTrotter range that T-Mobile will be sourcing from Option."

David Hytha, T-Mobile's Executive VP of Terminals says: "T-Mobile is committed to simple, seamless communications. Today's announcement is another milestone enabling customers to take their office with them on the move. Full broadband speeds and T-Mobile's unique Wi-Fi offering brings this strategy to life. Currently there are over 8,500 T-Mobile HotSpots worldwide. T-Mobile is delighted to be working with Option in the next stage of our mobile access offering."

On a 3G network the GlobeTrotter Fusion enables broadband connection to the internet at data speeds of up to 384kbps. Move into a range of public WiFi hotspot, the corporate WLAN or your home wireless network and the GlobeTrotter Fusion provides connection at speeds up to 54Mbps. In areas where 3G or WiFi services are not available GlobeTrotter Fusion still ensures reliable and secure data connection over the widely available GPRS services.
