Ericsson Supplies HSPA Modules for Dell Laptops

Dell will offer built-in HSPA mobile broadband modules from Ericsson beginning in Q2 2008. The modules use Ericsson's in-house HSPA chipset.


The companies said the built-in mobile broadband module provides superior downloading and uploading performance and takes less power from the battery. The module also has a GPS receiver, to be used together with positioning applications.


Market projections indicate that in 2011, approximately 200 million notebooks will ship annually and Ericsson anticipates that 50 percent of those notebooks will feature a built-in HSPA mobile broadband module.http://www.ericsson.com
