Vodafone will be offering the fastest mobile broadband speeds seen in the UK so far when it upgrades its 3G mobile broadband network this autumn.

Vodafone is to upgrade its existing 3G mobile broadband network to deliver higher speed internet surfing, data downloading and file uploading. The upgraded Vodafone 3G broadband service will support download speeds of up to 7.2Mbps, initially for laptop users. Vodafone is launching a new USB Modem and two ExpressCard data cards to enable laptop users to get high-speed data on the move.
