Vodafone have announced that over the summer they plan to roll out their super-fast 7.2Mbps mobile broadband services to major cities throughout the UK, supplying a further 3 million residents with fast mobile broadband access.
Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester and Reading are set to get the Stick treatment over the summer, with rollout due to commence next month, and finish by the autumn.
“The recent acceleration in the take up of mobile broadband has demonstrated just how hungry consumers are for internet access wherever they are,” says Nick Read, Vodafone UK CEO. “As a result we are significantly investing in our network so that more customers can experience our award winning fast and reliable mobile broadband network.”
The Vodafone Stick is an advanced plug and play device which allows users to access the interweb via high speed 3G connections. Currently, the top 7.2Mbps speeds are only available to Londoners and customers waiting around in major airports. Customers waiting around at Terminal 5 will have plenty of time on their hands.
Vodafone have also halved the price of their Mobile Broadband to just £15 a month in February, and have recently launched a 5GB monthly package for the USB Modem and Stick packages. The sum of £25 a month gets you 5GB of mobile usage, and the length of the contract you take out will alter the price of whichever of the two devices you choose.
