Telecom is announcing the early launch of its 3G mobile network on May 13 this year. Services are set to be available to customers at 6:30 PM that day, a much earlier date than Telecom’s previously announced time in June.
Rumors have it that Telecom means to preempt Vodafone’s May 31 mobile broadband release date.
Netbooks will likely be a part of the plans by Vodafone and Telecom, and are a sign that more and more cellular companies mean to compete with AT&T and Verizon in the netbook broadband market.
