About two weeks ago, Vodafone and HP presented the notebook model HP Compaq 2710p which integrates wireless Internet access technology via Vodafone Mobile broadband, exclusively available at PLAISIO stores in Greece.

The Vodafone Mobile broadband service provides wireless Internet and email access at speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps. The cooperation between Vodafone and Hewlett-Packard offers the consumer unique benefits:

* Easy: The service is activated via a single SIM card and Internet connection is available immediately upon activation of the service, with no delay.
* Economy: The notebook with the integrated Vodafone Mobile broadband sells considerably cheaper, at € 1,499 (with Vodafone connection).
* Security: No risk of losing the data card, as it is integrated in the notebook.
* Flexibility: High Internet connection speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps, wherever you are.

At the same time, the new HP Compaq 2710p computer offers unique advantages at a very affordable price:

* Small size, weighing only 1.6 kg
* High autonomy through the Ultra low Voltage processor technology
