WiFi plus 3G on one bill from Orange

Orange’s new Business Everywhere package gives business users access to Wi-Fi and 3G services in one bill.The deal sets no minimum ‘use or lose’ requirements for any network type. The result “will greatly simplify the management of mobility solutions for business customers by offering one contract, one bill and one customer service point of contact, regardless of the network accessed” as Orange put it.Orange’s Wi-Fi service costs £6 an hour, which can be spread across several connections in any 24 hour period.Orange has some around 1,700 Wi-Fi hotspots in the UK and roaming agreements provide access to a further 12,000 overseas. Last Autumn BT launched a similar service offering a combined 3G. GPRS and Wi-Fi tariff under the name BT Datazone.
