Now that Intel dropped the "Intel Inside"
campaign, will T-Mobile pick up the slogan? Probably not, but based on their recent news to subsidize laptops in
Germany for up to 500 euros, you have to wonder. The strategic deal isn't radically different than other cellular
carriers helping to sell laptops with their high-speed data functions until you realize that T-Mobile will actually
sell these HSDPA-enabled laptops. With a subsidy of up to 500 euros per notebook, some models could conceivably
cost as little as a current 3G-capable phone selling for 100 euros. Hey, if the strategy seems to work, perhaps T-Mobile
will spread some HSDPA laptop
love over here? No word on which laptops will get the super-speedy signal treatment.
