Optus has finally rolled-out its new 3G wireless broadband solution called Optus Wireless Broadband (OWB) at quite a competitive price, starting at $24.99 a month, along with a range of wireless products for consumer and business customers.

“OWB pricing is groundbreaking, with monthly fees comparable to what the competition is charging for fixed broadband. A quick comparison will reveal just how aggressive our new mobile broadband offers are,” said Optus Consumer managing director, Warren Hardy.

Optus is offering two products for customers who want wireless access. The InZone for consumers and small business users is a plug and play device for users who want to move their access from room to room, while the Roamer – also a plug and play device – allows users to access wireless broadband when they are travelling in a car, train or are in a location remote from the office.

“These are ‘plug and play’ products, providing flexibility for customers to access the internet anywhere there is Optus 3G/HSPA or GSM coverage,” said Hardy.

“Customers will be able to access speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps? available on the Optus 3G/HSPA network – allowing them to be mobile whether they are downloading music, accessing social networks or checking their email on the go.”

Optus says its OWB offering answers consumer need for a wireless solution, with an increasing mobile workforce in Australia.

A national sales campaign for OWB will launch early next year.
