STOCKHOLM, Sweden-L.M. Ericsson formed an alliance with Compaq to develop portable personal computers that will allow mobile users to access the Internet and corporate intranets, send faxes and e-mail, and exchange documents via Global System for Mobile communications networks.
The companies first product offering will be made by the end of the year, and they already bundle Ericsson GSM mobile phones with Compaq notebook PCs in some European countries.
“Sending a message or receiving information on the move should be as easy as making a phone call,” said Jan Ahrenbring, communications and information director at Ericsson Mobile Communications.
