22 October 2007

Maastricht, 22 October 2007 – As of today, computer retail chain Paradigit becomes a Vodafone’s IT reseller for mobile broadband products. Paradigit, 2006 Award Winning Retail Chain in the category Computer specialists, will start by selling the Vodafone USB modem in all Paradigit shops.

The co-operation between Vodafone Netherlands and Paradigit fits seamlessly into Vodafone’s sales strategy to sell mobile broadband solutions through quality IT sales channels to customers.

Jeroen Hoencamp, Director Business Market Vodafone Netherlands: “Paradigit is a well known name in The Netherlands where a lot of customers buy their computers. In light of consumers increasingly needing to work whenever and wherever they want, with mobile access to the internet and email, this co-operation is a logical step. Both business users and consumers can now turn to a single supplier for their hardware and their mobile connectivity.”

Bert Moens, Manager Retail Paradigit: “Customers who enter our shops, not only want good advice on computers or laptops, but also on the possibilities for mobile working mobile. To be able to offer a complete package fits perfectly into our service-oriented customer approach.”

At first Paradigit will sell Vodafone’s mobile broadband USB modem, both prepaid and postpaid. The USB modem is a ‘plug and play’ device that only needs a free USB usb-socket to establish a mobile broadband connection. Vodafone always offers customers the highest network speed available at the location of the customer. Vodafone’s mobile broadband network offers download speeds of 1.8 Mbit/s in over 90% of The Netherlands, at many sites 3.6 Mbit/s already. Vodafone is permanently upgrading and improving its networks.
