Low cost online tablet launched by Telstra

It was recently announced that Australian communications giant Telstra had launched an affordable wireless mobile internet tablet that could suit many Australians perfectly.

Over recent years mobile broadband services and wireless internet devices have become increasingly popular in Australia as well as in many other destinations around the world. There are now a number of devices that consumers use to access mobile broadband and internet including laptops, netbooks, online tablets, and smart phones.

It was recently announced that the Australian communications giant Telstra had launched a low cost online tablet that could provide affordable wireless internet access to many Australians. The tablet is called the T-Touch Tab, and with its price tag of two hundred and ninety nine dollars it is said to be the most affordable wireless tablet from an Australian telco.

Telstra Executive Director Consumer, Ms Rebekah O’Flaherty, said: “T-Touch Tab™ will suit Australians’ appetite for quick and affordable access to information, useful apps and digital media wherever they may be. Created with Australian families in mind, the T-Touch Tab™ can be enjoyed individually or shared together, providing entertainment to all ages. From games that keep the kids amused, reading e-books, checking your email or catching the weather on the move, the possibilities are virtually endless.”

She added: “Whether you’re a green-thumb, aspiring MasterChef or perhaps an avid blogger, we believe the T-Touch Tab™ will be popular with busy people embracing technology to keep connected with their interests. Telstra research suggests three quarters of Australia’s hobbyists are keen to use technology – such as tablets – to help further their passion.

Our research also has found that while many hobbyists pursue an interest for the mental stimulation, 75% wish they could better share their particular passion with family and friends. We think affordable mobile tablets like Telstra T-Touch Tab™ will be great news for the majority of hobbyists who admit they want to devote more time to their passion, but can’t due to lack of time and associated costs.”
