Notebook supplier offers free Internet access to airports

Pretoria-based notebook and accessories retailer, the Notebook Company, is offering a free Internet Access Facility for each international airport in SA.

The proposal is that each facility will be able to accommodate up to eight mobile users via UTP connections and up to 20 wireless connections - one at each airport.

This was confirmed by Christopher Riley, CEO of the Notebook Company. "This is a totally free offer," he said.

"We believe this will promote the image of the South African Airports Company and the image of the airports themselves. This initiative will also go a long way towards assisting travelling businessmen and promoting mobile computing in SA."
