		<description><![CDATA[Some DSL and home phone packages of German providers such as 1&#38;1, Alice and Congstar come with a minimum term of four or six weeks. The DSL packages include at least an analog landline and a DSL connection with a flat rate tariff for web access. Sometimes a flat rate tariff for landline calls to other home phones in Germany is already included as well. Since some providers rely in certain regions on a wholesale product of Telekom in order to provide landline and broadband Internet connections, they may add an additional €&#160;5.00 per month to the standard monthly fee - depending on the subscriber's address.]]></description>

Will rather the bookies be right who think that Ireland’s pair of identical 19-year-old twin boys Jedward will win the palm with their upbeat number “Lipstick”? Or will French tenor Amaury Vassili get the most votes in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 (ESC)? Tonight, finalists from 25 countries will take the stage in Duesseldorf and millions of viewers will cast their votes by fixed-line phone, mobile phone or SMS. But how much will it cost to cast your vote?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[German network operator Vodafone is offering three new Android smart-phones to prepaid customers. Buyers of a “CallYa OpenEnd Internet” prepaid starter package can choose between the LG GT540 for € 149.90, the HTC Wildfire for € 199.90 and the Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro for € 249.90. While the LG GT540 and the Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro are available for similar retail prices at other stores in Germany, the HTC Wildfire offer of Vodafone is quite attractive. However, at the moment interested mobile phone users can only pre-order the HTC Wildfire at the Vodafone website and will have to wait until the end of November for the new phone being delivered by Vodafone. The LG GT540 and the Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro are in stock at Vodafone stores.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Soccer fans traveling to South Africa for watching the games of the 2010 FIFA World Cup should leave the SIM cards of their regular mobile phone provider at home&#160;- because of high roaming charges for outgoing and incoming calls as well as for mobile data services. At teltarif.de we have found out: Subscribers of a cell phone plan of one of the German operators Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone, E-Plus or Germany pay as much as €&#160;2.55 per minute when calling their family back at home from South Africa. For incoming calls in South Africa German operators charge up to €&#160;2.00 per minute. A less expensive way to keep in touch with family and friends at home while visiting South Africa during the 2010 FIFA World Cup from June, 11th to July, 11th is to buy a prepaid SIM card of a South African provider.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You want to get a DSL internet connection. You don’t want to get in three or four weeks, which is the usual time it takes providers in Germany to set up the broadband internet connection, you want to get it today. One way to access the internet immediately is to buy a prepaid SIM card and an UMTS surf stick and to access the internet over the mobile network until the DSL connection is activated. Another way is to order a DSL bundle of a provider that offers an UMTS surf stick to new customers itself. Unfortunately, at the moment there is only one provider offering DSL with a short minimum term commitment and with such an UMTS surf stick in the German market: Hansenet with its Alice brand.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DSL provider Hansenet (Alice) is offering more favorable conditions to landline and DSL subscribers who have also booked the mobile internet tariff "Mobile Surf-Flat". While before this tariff option held just 300&#160;MB data volume per month in store for notebook, netbook or smartphone users, the "Mobile Surf-Flat" has now become a real flat rate tariff with unlimited data volume for transmissions over the network of O2 Germany. However, there is a data volume limit of 300&#160;MB per month for transfers with EDGE, UMTS or HSPA speed of up to 7.2&#160;mbps (download). Once this limit has been exceeded, the maximum transfer speed will be reduced to GPRS level for the remaining days of that specific month.]]></description>

The only difference between these two options: New customers choosing a DSL contract with a long minimum term get a discount on the monthly fees. However, O2 Germany is one of the few German DSL providers not charging new subscribers deciding on a short minimum term a one-time set-up fee and higher purchase prices for new DSL router. A DSL package of O2 Germany with a short minimum term of one month and flat rate tariffs for web access and landline calls to other home phones in Germany is available for prices beginning at EUR&#160;25.00 per month.]]></description>
