Phones4U are giving customers the chance to get their hands on a shiny new laptop when signing up to Orange mobile broadband on a £30 a month deal.

The mobile phone retailers are following in the footsteps of Carphone Warehouse, who launched a similar offer in recent months.

Those who sign the deal will be handed a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo for free and have the option of upgrading to a Samsung R60 at an extra cost.

The Fujitsu machine comes with an 80GB hard drive, 1GB of RAM, an Intel Celeron 540 Processor and a 15.4-inch widescreen display - it retails at around the £350 mark.

For an extra £74.95, contract holders can enjoy the £499 Samsung R60, boasting a 120GB hard drive.

The 3GB monthly allowance which comes with the package is enough to browse the web for 100 hours and send over 2000 emails.
