iPad subsidy offers lure student customers in France

France telecom operator Orange has teamed up with France's Ministry for Higher Education to offer subsidized iPads to French university students for €1 a day. The deal comes at a time when iPads are becoming recognized as a boon to students in the classroom partly due to the educational apps and textbooks available for the devices.
The Orange France offer allows students to sign up for a 2-year deal in which they pay €30 a month for a 16GB iPad 2 Wi-Fi+3G. Students can also opt for a 12-month plan with the same device for €34 a month. In addition to the iPad, students also get 1 GB of free data a month as well as unlimited data for emails (and attachments) and also unlimited data on Orange's Wi-Fi hot spots.
French students can take advantage of the offer by going to www.proximamobile.fr or www.orange.fr and verifying their student credentials.

Hmm, TUAW, the illustration you've chosen illustrates the Franco-German cooperation pact... It shows the Brandenburger Tor (gate) in Berlin on the left, and the Eiffel tower on the right.
