Harga Nokia C3 - T-Mobile and 3 are rumoured to be close to completing their joint network infrastructure program, with the end in sight by the close of 2010.
Nokia C3 - In existance since 2007, the 50/50 joint venture dubbed the Mobile Broadband Network Ltd (MBNL) was created so that the companies could share the costs of running and upgrading the network, reduce redundancy, and improve coverage for their customers. Once the work on the shared network is complete, it will be the largest shared network in Europe, with what T-Mobile and 3 are claiming is the 'biggest' 3G coverage in the UK - although there's no specifics on exactly what they mean by biggest.
So far, the 3G network covers more than 7,000 consolidated sites and offers outdoor coverage to more than 90 per cent of the population. By the end of the year, the remaining 5,500 or so sites will have been consolidated, with over 3,000 redundant sites switched off and removed from the network - and the companies hope at that stage to be at 98 per cent coverage.
Additionally, a £400 million planning, opmisation and maintenance contract has been agreed between the MBNL and Nokia Siemens Networks. Graham Payne, managing director of MBNL commented: “Smartphone and mobile laptop data traffic growth in the UK has been unprecedented, and every sign is it will continue growing fast. With Nokia Siemens Networks, we are confident of providing the UK’s most smartphone friendly, high-speed 3G network to more people in the UK than any other operator, delivering exceptional services to both T-Mobile UK and 3 UK subscribers.”
Better coverage and better services to mobile broadband customers are being cited by both companies as the reason for the joint venture, but it will be interesting to see once work is complete how T-Mobile and 3 customers feel about their services.
