Acer Aspire One "to be given away" with 3G deals

Acer is reportedly in talks with leading mobile networks to supply its Aspire One netbook with 3G connections.
The PC manufacturers is talking to T-Mobile, Vodafone and Orange about potential deals in Europe, according to a report on PCWorld.com.
The low-cost Aspire One has built-in 802.11b/g, but Acer has left room inside the laptop to install a 3G card.
The laptop costs £225, but the mobile networks will almost certainly give the Aspire One away for free or at a heavily subsidised price to customers who sign up for 18 or 24-month deals.
Carphone Warehouse began offering a free Fujitsu Siemens laptop to customers on Orange's £30-per-month 3G tariff earlier this year, while PC World already offers other Acer Aspire laptops for free to customers signing £30-a-month deals with 3.
