Thu, 05 Jan 2012 10:20

London-based CTO-Ventures Limited (the commercial subsidiary of the Commonwealth Telecommunications Organisation) has announced the launch of a global Internet access SIM, Nomad, which is designed for anyone travelling internationally.

Nomad meets the roaming needs of both business travelers and holiday-makers. It provides international wireless data services that can be used on over 630 networks across the world.

Said Bashir Patel, CEO of CTO Ventures Limited: “Having been in the business of ICTs, we understand the needs of the people, be it professional, government officials or leisure-travelers. They all want to remain connected when they are outside their jurisdictions especially through their smart phones, laptop or tablets. Nomad is a product that is specifically designed for this international roaming community. You can use it for instant data communications access and be assured of a guaranteed tariff plan. Moreover, our flat rate tariffs are much lower than international roaming rates. There are no complicated set-up processes, no hidden costs or data caps. Just simple plug and use as long as you are within the coverage of our networks.”

Nomad offers a suite of customised packages and has two distinct and simple price plans - a variable rate plan starting with $1.50 in over 40 countries and a fixed rate of $4.50 for any network in the rest of the world. In addition, travelers can subscribe and buy $50 or $100 dollar packages online.

The Nomad High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) modems are compatible with any 2G/3G network and has a high-bandwidth connection of up to 7.2 Mb/s downlink. An optional dongle with self-installing communication software features are also provided with Nomad services.
