Orange Entered Exclusive Discussion to Acquire TEN

In a PR, Orange announced to have initiated exclusive discussion to acquire the french virtual mobile Ten Mobile. Ten is known in France for having built its offer around unlimited messaging and web surfing.
As spotted by one of our team member, it could well be the perfect way for Orange to acquire the resources and knowledge to develop the dedicated network required for the future iPhone customers and the corresponding services (such as unlimited surfing and download).
Ten current offers including unlimited web surfing and mail range from 9.99€ (no phone feature) to 59.99€ with 6 hours of mobile phone communication.
