Altissima Vista :-) says:

Loewe agrees to cooperation with German 3Com daughter.
Loewe AG, Kronach and the German 3Com (Ltd), daughter of the US concern 3Com Corp Santa Clara, have agreed to market a fast Internet Connection using bi-directional cable networks. 3Com has developed a cable modem for the consumer market which can be used with the Loewe TV Xelos@media on various existing cable networks, Loewe announced on Thursday. In the near future both companies intend to offer the 3Com cable modem with additional Loewe TV sets containing the buit-in multimedia module "Loewe MediaPlus".

(In my youth Loewe made a popular line of radio sets, later TVs. IMHO their market share declined in the 70s, I'm actually surprised to see their name here)

Te me take a crack at this translation.
Headline "Loewe agrees to cooperation with Kronach, a subsidiary of the 3Com Corporation."
"The Loewe Corporation, Kronach and the German 3Com GMBA, a subsidiary of the US 3Com Corporation of Santa Clara, have agreed to work together in marketing of a Fast Internet Connection over bidirectional cable networks utilizing a cable modem developed by 3Com for the consumer market. This cable modem can already be employed in already existing cable networks by Loewe's television Xelos@media, according to a Loewe announcement on Thursday. Moreover the (marketing) alliance plans the employment of the 3Com cable modems in other Loewe televisions which are already available with the multimedia-capable chassis electronics Loewe MediaPlus."
Well that's the best I could do.
