Orange brings WTC clients online

Time is money, therefore business people need more and more mobility for their communications. Even though the Romanian managers can already connect to their corporate Intranet or to the Internet by using mobile telephony technologies such as GPRS or CDMA, they will also be very interested in the WLAN (wireless local area network) solutions, Orange Romania feels.
Orange has launched its own WLAN service, as well as the first hotspot that features this technology within the Sofitel Hotel and the World Trade Center Bucharest conference complex at the end of last week.
In other words, if a manager is visiting Romania and stays at the Sofitel Hotel or attends a conference at WTC, they can connect to the Internet or even to their corporate Intranet by using the WLAN. The only thing the manager has to do is carry a laptop or a PDA. The wireless link is done via a card offered by the hotel or by the conference centre, which also decides how much to charge for the service. Such a card may cost about $12 a day at the Sofitel Hotel.
