A mobile broadband<\/a> craze is sweeping the country this summer as internet addicted Brits demand constant access to the high-speed internet using their laptops.<\/p>\n

Recent research by T-Mobile Broadband<\/a> has found that broadband through laptops is now such an important part of everyday life that Brits want to be able to take it with them absolutely everywhere this summer – even to the beach!<\/p>\n

Mobile Broadband Is The New Beach Must-Have<\/b>
\nJust under half of us (44%) think we should have access to the internet anywhere in the UK, but many are still stuck with the constraints of a fixed line connection. The beach may be an unusual place to want access to the internet, but one fifth of those questioned most want mobile broadband here.<\/p>\n

Surf & Sup In Pub Gardens Also In Demand<\/b>
\nBrits also stated other prime summer locations such as the pub, park and garden as their most desired places to get online. A fresh-air loving 44% of us want to log on whilst relaxing in the back garden, 32% want to be able to dial-up whilst on holiday and 8% want to surf and sup in pub gardens.<\/p>\n

Richard Warmsley, Head of Internet and Entertainment services at T-Mobile said: “Mobile broadband has reached a tipping point and is now hitting the mainstream. Last year our research showed that only 3% of office workers wanted to work from the beach: one year on, the latest figures show that a staggering 44% of us now want to use the internet on the go, and an incredible 21% would like to use it at the beach.”<\/p>\n

Huge Shift In Mobile Broadband Consumer Opinion<\/b>
\nThe research signals a huge shift in consumer opinion around broadband services. Consumers are used to taking their laptops out and about with them and they now expect to be connected to the Internet – whether that\u2019s in the garden, at the office or in the park.<\/p>\n
