Italian operator offers Option-connected Mobile Internet Device
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) LEUVEN, BELGIUM, December 19 / MARKET WIRE/ --
A second European operator is
now offering a Mobile Internet Device (MID) based on a wireless
embedded module from Option N.V. (EURONEXT Brussels: OPTI; OTC:
OPNVY). The MID is being marketed by Italy's leading mobile operator
TIM (Telecom Italia Mobile) as the Alice Mobile MID IDOL
The Alice Mobile MID IDOL - an MID with HSPA connectivity, 4.8" touch
screen, retractable keyboard, Intel's Atom processor, 4.5 GB
integrated memory and weighing 320 grams - enables anywhere, anytime
access to the Internet and popular web-based services such as email,
instant messaging and social networks.
The launch of the Alice Mobile MID IDOL in Italy reflects the
continuing progress of Option's initiative to become a leading
supplier of 3G wireless broadband connectivity for MIDs. Earlier this
year the company announced that SFR had launched an MID, the SFR M!
PC Pocket 3G+, in France. Forecasts about MIDs volume shipments from
independent analysts range from 90 to 136 million units a year by
2012/13.
