Sony Ericsson will be showcasing its latest series of PC Cards during GITEX 2005. Designed to enhance wireless communication accessibility, Sony Ericsson’s latest range of PC cards provides powerful solutions for access to the internet, intranet, email and corporate network whether at work, at home or on the road.
“PC Cards are revolutionizing the future of office work through wireless tools that will change the face of offices and give workers the freedom to be productive wherever and whenever they choose,” said Husni Al Assi, General Manager of Sony Ericsson Middle East and Africa. “Our PC Cards come in response to this change. They are a fast and reliable global wireless communication tool.”
The credit-card size wireless PC cards provide mobile professionals access to email, internet, and corporate intranets wherever and whenever they may be. PC Cards slot neatly into the side of laptops and provide instant data access via mobile networks that now cover every corner of the world. Laptop users can now be as globally mobile as possible.
The Global PC card users can always stay connected via their laptops and their mobile phones remain free for voice calls at all times. The PC cards fit any laptop with a Type II PC card slot running Windows 98SE, 2000, ME, NT4.0 or XP.
The powerful yet discrete GC75e offers data speeds similar to that of fixed-line modems. The triple band GPRS PC Card Modem is the key to mobile connectivity. It is the essential traveling tool, providing online access in all 5 continents using GPRS, HSCSD or CSD. No matter where you are you will never be out of reach.
GC79 is the world’s first combined tri-band GPRS and Wi-Fi PC card. The combo features of the GC79 PC Card give you the best of two worlds with global access with GPRS/HSCSD and fast local connection with Wi-Fi (up to 11 MB). Speaking of the GC79, Al Assi said “Sony Ericsson recognizes the explosive growth of Wi-Fi technology and is providing consumers with a flexible and mobile solution today that guarantees they work smarter not harder.”
With the launch of the GC85 EDGE PC Card, corporate professionals from Middle East and Africa can now enjoy a 3G technology data card that delivers broadband-like speeds over GSM networks – average data speed of 130 kbps with burst up to 247 kbps. Mobile users will be able to enjoy high-speed internet services and e-mail access. Large e-mail attachments can be downloaded quickly and easily, making mobile working a practical reality.
The series will also include the GC99 PC Card, which offers connectivity on UMTS networks at up to 384 kbps and works anywhere you can use a mobile phone. The sleek and compact form design (limited antenna extension) of the GC99 is a distinctive design of the Sony Ericsson’s PC Cards. In addition, an external antenna is also available as an accessory. This is useful when there is low GSM network signal strength.
