Radisson SAS Hotels & Resorts
,  the first class hotel brand of Rezidor
SAS Hospitality announces to further develop wireless access in all its
hotels.  Full wireless access in all rooms,  meeting rooms and public
areas should be available in all Radisson SAS Hotels & Resorts by the

Today,  almost 100 Radisson SAS Hotels have implemented high-speed
wireless access in all public areas or are in the final stages of
providing this service. Full wireless coverage is currently available in
fourteen Radisson SAS Hotels,  covering a total of 3,782 rooms with
another twelve hotels to follow before this year-end.

Finn Schulz, Vice President Information Technology Rezidor SAS comments:
“In order to keep up with IT developments in the market and to assure we
keep on offering our guests an up-to-date service we have partnered with
NetPoint to ensure a smooth implementation of full wireless access in
all rooms and public areas of all our hotels by the end of 2004.”

Wireless technology is rapidly igniting an exciting new mobile era,
which is re-shaping the way people stay in touch at work, at home and
away from home. “Intel encourages initiatives such as this,” said

capability and wireless enabled laptops like those equipped with Intel®
Centrino(tm) mobile technology as well as fully wireless buildings are
designed to
offer users greater flexibility and usability that can help them to
increase productivity.
