Sun Cellular Mobile Broadband Unlimited for P999.00
8:51 PM on Thursday, August 7, 2008

 Was in the Sun Shop paying for my EasyPhone and EasyLine plans when I saw Aga's new standee. P999 flat rate for mobile internet! I heard that ümobile offers something similar, but I can't find anything about it. Here's a pic taken with my phone:

Sun's Mobile Broadband plan includes a free (waived) USB Modem dongle and has speeds of up to 400kbps, which means that its on the EDGE network, and not 3G, which can go up to around 2Mbps. Still a pretty good deal and will be a cheaper alternative to Smart's and Globe's mobile broadband, also at P999 but is metered at around P40 per hour.

To avoid surprises, try out Sun's service where you expect to use it, with a web-capable phone. An iPhone or a phone connected to a laptop is even better.

Just to update you guys, the service is 3G. EDGE is 200KBPs or lower, this mobile broadband is UNLIMITED with 400KBPS connection. It's capped because of the price tag (P999) but if you get plan 1999, you get also unlimited 1.4mbps mobile broadband. I think SUN has the capability to throw 3.2mbps but they would not want to give it all up.

Exactly. I know why. They're ripping us off.

The mobile revolution is coming. It's also the same here in Singapore... the difference is just the bandwidth offered... mobile broadband here is offered on 7.2Mbps... Greater than what's offered on wired networks.. take note: at the same price as in the Philippines.

I'm not sure why this is but from what I initially feel, the cellular companies in the Phil might not be giving the right amount of service to the consumers.
