UK-- Spring for Vodafone 3G Jan 28, 2004 Vodafone is trialling 3G handsets from Samsung ahead of a spring launch of 3G services. Handsets which are similar to the Samsung Z100 (pictured) are likely to be launched with the Vodafone branding at Cannes. A Samsung source told Mobile: ‘We have been trialling the Z100 with Vodafone and will launch a similar product with Vodafone.’ Meanwhile, Vodafone is aiming to steal a march on 3 with a practical business service – a high-speed version of its Vodafone Connect service. The operator has begun a 3G high-speed data trial aimed at business users, which offers data connections as fast as 384Kbps in areas of 3G coverage. Despite being in operation for nearly a year, 3 has held back from launching business-specific services, preferring to concentrate on consumer products. A spokeswoman for Vodafone told Mobile that the trial would be used to determine both the pricing and the way the service is to be marketed. A similar service in Germany, announced last year, is sold under the name of Vodafone Connect UMTS. Vodafone has declined to name the manufacturer of the dual-mode data card (see box), but it is thought to be using a 3G chipset from Qualcomm. The 3G corporate user trials will initially concentrate on urban areas like London, Birmingham and Manchester. However, smaller business customers will be introduced to the trials at a later date. Vodafone UK CEO Gavin Darby said: ‘This is the first step along our 3G path, and paves the way for the development of a range of enhanced offerings for businesses.’ mobiletoday.co.uk ----------------------------------------- almost certainly that's a Qualcomm chipset... while the whole ballgame rides on the smooth usefulness of multimode chips and the success of the current R & D mill.
