Several Nordic telecom operators say they’ll offer customers data subscription packages exclusively for the iPad, even though Apple hasn’t given a launch date for the tablet in the Nordic countries, says “Dow Jones Newswire” (http://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/2010/11/19/swedish-telecom-operators-aim-ipad-customers/?).

Hutchison Whampoa Ltd’s European operator Tre, TeliaSonera AB, Tele2 AB and Telenor ASA all say they’ll offer data subscription packages exclusively for the iPad, giving iPad users Internet connectivity through their respective networks. However, the telecom operators didn’t say when they plan to launch the subscription packages and didn’t disclose any price details, says “Dow Jones.”
