TeliaSonera launches Turbo 3G in Norway

TeliaSonera's subsidiary NetCom is the first in Norway to launch a next
generation mobile network. The biggest cities in Norway will have access to the
new network already in 2007. It will offer the customers up to ten times faster
Internet access compared to the conventional 3G network.

”Turbo 3G will give a completely new meaning to mobile broadband. Where
previously ADSL was needed to achieve satisfactory upload and download speed,
all that is needed now is a computer and plug-in card,” says August Baumann,
President, NetCom. 

The network will be built out where most needed, and so it is Oslo, Trondheim,
Bergen and Stavanger that will get Turbo 3G in 2007. The build-out is planned to
continue in 2008 and 2009.

In parallel with the launch of the new mobile network, NetCom releases several
new services and price plans.

“We customize the mobile broadband offering to the needs of the different
customer groups and offer several new subscription solutions. The products will
be adapted both to big users in the business market and to consumer customers
who wish to have access to the Internet wherever they are,” says Hans
Heggenhaugen, Product Manager, Mobile Broadband, NetCom.

TeliaSonera already offers Turbo 3G in Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and
plans a launch in Finland in the near future.
