I love you, SMART BRO!
I just love this nifty service from Smart. It’s a wireless internet connection service with a usb modem.
I’ve been using this at home. Though it’s not the fastest internet connection in the Philippines, a landed cable is still much faster, my purpose for simple email, uploading photos and posting entries, it’s more than enough.
My only complaint is that I often get disconnected and they charge by the block. Meaning, they don’t charge per minute. It’s per 30 minutes… and if you get disconnected and failed to reconnect within 12 minutes of getting disconnected, you’ll be charged another block. It’s about P10/30-minute-block. It’s not that expensive either.
It could be, though, if I’m logged on the whole day. So now, I’m thinking of getting the subscription. I don’t think I’m going to wait for PLDT any longer. It’s taking them FOREVER to connect our DSL line at home. The only downside is that we can’t network this type of internet connection. So only one of us (my husband and I) can connect to the internet at any given point in time.
I still love it, though. It gave me my blogging mojo back!
I’m so happy! (I just borrowed this by the way, so I guess I’ll have to give it back at some point soon…). Anyway, I highly recommend this nifty little gadget for those on the go.
