Alcatel and HP Team with Service Providers on SMB Solutions

Alcatel and HP announced plans to jointly develop and market a suite of advanced, integrated IT and communication products specifically designed for small and medium businesses (SMBs). The "Ready Office" program would enable service providers to offer a single point of contact for service and support to SMBs. France Telecom will be the first telecom service provider to join the Alcatel and HP initiative. Alcatel and HP also agreed to leverage their extensive network of indirect distribution channels.
