Orange bundle laptops sell out
27th October 2008
The stock of laptops being offered with Orange’s mobile broadband deals has run-out, according to new reports.
Mobile News says that supplies of both the Asus Eee PC and Hewlett Packard devices have run out, such has been the recent demand for mobile broadband deals in the UK.
The telecoms news provider quoted the retail director at Orange as saying that the sales of laptops with Orange dongles have been "amazing".
France Telecom-owned Orange has been including the Asus Eee machines with its Internet Everywhere mobile broadband packages since August - the deal is £25 for a 24-month contract.
Also included in the deal is 3Gb data allowance as well as 100 texts.
Meanwhile, figures from Mobile Today show that the netbooks often offered with mobile broadband laptop deals now make up some ten per cent of the overall UK laptop market.
