We believe that Treo has a great potential on the Swedish market and we have already seen a great demand for the product from our resellers," said Berth Hertzberg, Vice President Marketing & Sales, APE Telecom.
No pricing and availability was announced for the other countries, other than that �the companies will work together during the first quarter of this year to launch Treo via mmO2 networks � and use mm02's distribution network to bring Treo to market through other physical and online channels as greater supply becomes available in the coming months."
