Sony Ericsson unveils new EDGE PC Card

Following the successful launch of the GC82 EDGE PC Card in the American market, Sony Ericsson is proud to unveil today the latest addition to the family of EDGE products - the GC83 EDGE PC Card. GC83 offers increased speed – up to 3 times faster than GPRS - and extended coverage for the mobile professional.

There is a growing trend and need for wireless data communication solutions and there is a demand for a mobile computing solution that promises wireless accessibility, fast data speeds, and true global mobility. Sony Ericsson’s GC83 EDGE PC Card and the personal laptop are the answer for those who want to work efficiently and effectively when on the move, out of the office. The GC83 offers the power and ease to surf the Internet, download attachments, connect to the corporate networks and manage e-mail from just about anywhere.

Speed - When connected to the GSM/EDGE networks, users can enjoy data speeds three times faster than GPRS. This means greatly improved downloading speeds which are very useful for downloading e-mails with large attachments wirelessly.

Coverage – The triple band (GSM 850/1800/1900) EDGE PC Card GC83 will be available end Q2 in the American markets and will give roaming possibilities for travellers to Europe and Asia

The non-extended type II PC Card with a detachable antenna is a distinctive design of the Sony Ericsson’s PC Cards. The slim and compact EDGE PC Card allows users to keep the card in the laptop at all times – giving them convenient and instant access. Since the PC Card is powered by the user’s laptop, no extra chargers or cables are required.

“The mobile professional wants more than simply keeping in touch with his clients and colleagues when out of the office. He wants to be able to work while on the move. He needs to be sure that his laptop is plugged into the office network, so that he can collaborate with his colleagues and clients in ‘real time’. Sony Ericsson is able to meet that need,” says Anders Franzen, Corporate Vice President and Head of Sony Ericsson M2M Communications Unit.

Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB offers mobile communications products for people who appreciate the possibilities of powerful technology. Established in 2001 by Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson and Sony Corporation, the joint venture continues to build on the success of its two innovative parent companies. Sony Ericsson creates value for its operator customers by bringing new ways of using multimedia communications while mobile. The company’s management is based in London, and has 4,000 employees across the globe working on research, development, design, sales, marketing, distribution and support.
