Prague, 25 November 2004 - A month before Christmas Eve, T-Mobile offers another possibility of purchasing Christmas presents conveniently - via the newly launched internet shop at www.t-mobile.cz. Customers may thus avoid the Christmas rush and queues in shops, and purchase Christmas presents in comfort from home or the office. We have also extended the offer for tariff customers - from the offer of subsidized phones, they may now select the Nokia 3220 supporting EDGE for a special price of CZK 999.

Internet shop and toll-free phone line
The internet shop is, in addition to previously commenced sales via the toll-free phone line 800 73 73 73, another alternative shopping channel of T-Mobile. Both sales channels are designed, in particular, to satisfy the great customer interest in the Christmas offer of Twist sets.
However, in addition to the Christmas offer the internet shop also offers the entire portfolio of Twist sets and handsets. Current customers will be able to extend their Subscriber Contracts or activate new tariffs with the HIT tariff add-on or a subsidized phone. Customers may access the internet shop at www.t-mobile.cz, under Sale, or directly via the Christmas offer presentation.

Overview of options available through the new 800 73 73 73 and www.t-mobile.cz sales channels:
1)Sale of Christmas Twist sets with a handset for CZK 1
2)Sale of the entire portfolio of Twist sets
3)Sale of non-subsidized handsets
4)Extension of Subscriber Contracts (with the HIT tariff add-on or a subsidized phone) *
5)New activations by tariff customers *

* only for current T-Mobile customers

EDGE phone for as little as CZK 999
Tariff customers who decide to use any of the existing tariffs T80, T250 and T500 may still activate this tariff for a 50% lower price, i.e. for only CZK 1,499 (excl. VAT). In addition to this, they may choose any subsidized phone from the current offer that newly includes, as of 1 December, the Nokia 3220 for CZK 999. Users who need fast mobile data-transmission services in particular will appreciate this handset, as it supports the high‑speed EDGE technology which was launched by T-Mobile on 8 November this year.

Christmas content at t-zones
Like every year, T-Mobile has prepared for its customers hundreds of Christmas and New Year's motifs to download. This year, there is a new product - Christmas Caller Tunes. Customers who want to dress up their mobile in a festive mood can download Christmas or New Year's logos, send picture SMS or MMS cards or decorate their mobile phone's display with a Christmas motif. They may also select a Christmas hit as a ringtone. Christmas motifs have also been added to the Postcards and Caller Tunes categories. T-Mobile customers can send original SMS wishes for the New Year - there are four categories: Family, Loved Ones, Friends and Erotic.

Waiting in lines with hot punch and gingerbreads
As of 3 December, customers can meet the T-Mobile Christmas guards in the streets, whose main task is to make the standing in line more pleasant. Those waiting in lines may refresh themselves with hot or cold beverages or gingerbread shaped like mobile phones. Easy games and small presents are prepared for children.
