Reliance, Lenovo, and Intel have come together in an innovative consumer initiative to give customers a hands-on experience of the benefits of truly mobile data connectivity. As part of the initiative, Intel-powered Lenovo 3000 N100 notebooks, connected with Reliance's Netconnect data card - which offers wireless Internet access on the move, will be placed in 200 Reliance World and Reliance Communication outlets in 100 cities across India. Customers walking into any of the 200 Reliance Netconnect "Experience Zones" will now have the freedom to sit and move around anywhere in these outlets and use the Lenovo notebooks to wirelessly surf the Internet.

Reliance Netconnect data card is inserted in the PCMCIA card slot of the laptop or connected through the USB port, allowing a laptop user high-speed wireless Internet access anywhere in Reliance's CDMA1x network. A laptop user is connected while he is on the move for e.g. at the airport, at a client's location, in the hotel room, traveling in a car - anytime, anywhere.

The Lenovo 3000 N100 is the first Intel dual-core notebook from Lenovo, and an easy-to-use and affordable system designed for home and small business users.
