Currently, Vodafone is the leader among Czech operators in 3G signal coverage. It covers 216 towns and villages, equivalent to 48% of population. Now the operator is concentrating on covering outlying and smaller cities in all regions of the country. Where Vodafone launches new 3G signal, customers can activate the connection charge at a fifty percent discount for the first three months and can get the modem for a subsidized price of 77 crowns.
Vodafone's 3G network runs on the latest HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) from Huawei.
In addition to the 3G network, Vodafone customers can access mobile data over MobilKom's CDMA network, which covers 75 percent of the population, and its own 2G network - EDGE, which is available to 95 percent of the population of the Czech Republic.
