Dell Inc. has signed a deal with a U.K. mobile phone retailer to distribute free laptops with the purchase of a broadband Internet access subscription, continuing the company’s push into the retail market. Starting in September, consumers who buy a two-year contract for America Online Inc.’s broadband service through the Carphone Warehouse Group PLC will get a coupon for a free base-model Inspiron notebook from Dell. AOL broadband costs #19.99 (US$41) per month.

The Dell laptop comes with Microsoft Corp.’s Vista Home Basic OS, 1 G byte of RAM, an 80G-byte hard drive, an Intel Corp. Celeron processor and Wi-Fi. The laptop can be upgraded for a fee. Customers also get a wireless router, but have to pay a #14.99 laptop delivery fee.
