How's this for a promotion: Sign up for a broadband package and get a free computer. Scottish carrier and IT retailer powerupmobile.com is giving user exactly that. When customers use the Edinburgh-based company to sign up for T-Mobile's Web 'n Walk mobile broadband service, they'll get a free Asus Eee PC.

Says powerupmobile.com's CEO of the portable notebook, which has recently become his company's best-selling item: "The best thing is you can connect it to the internet from anywhere using the USB modem and T-Mobile Web n Walk service. You don't need Wifi or a hot spot or anything, plug in the USB modem anywhere and you get internet access."

The package, which also includes a T-Mobile USB modem is £35 a month, for 24 months.
