i saw from m1 website....the ipad data plan is more expensive than the mobile broadband plan...is that the reason pple are talking about cutting SIM card this days ??? if we can just cut the sim card smaller. then by introducing two plans which one is definitely more expensive....isn't it very dumb ??? or trying to catch as much windfall as possible....

You will be surprised how many uninformed people there are out there :blink:

 

Or there are a lot of kiasee people out there who dare not cut (does that sound obscene?) haha

 

But eventually the telcos will have to offer micro-sim due to iPhone 4G's popularity as standard

Its weird....recently M1 no longer advertise those 1Mbs or 2 Mbs broadband. Instead they only advertise the 7.2Mbs iPad broadband plan. Conveniently not promoting the lower plans.

I remember just few months ago, they were offering 30% off for the 1Mbs 3G unlimited plan, 2years contract. Each month only pays like $15 for the plan (can't reme,ber exactly).

 

Now this ipad plan is charging like $50 per month? Worth it or just maximising the profit by pushing the higher plan for the richie rich iPad fanatics fan boys/girls!

uninformed but use iphone and ipad....don't dare to try means they are laggers using iphone and ipad...then i am thinking if everyone whom is using them know what they are using or just it is a piece of "atas" toy...humm....

 

I think i am downgrading all this years...last time I spend SGD1000+ to buy the what Atom which is a piece of s.h.i.t to me...now i am using a normal nokia slide phone for day to day needs... [laugh][laugh]

They ship directly from those OEM makers in China - confirm very cheap

 

They even do drop shipment if you are keen to set up your own ebay shop...hahah

u can use MyWi on the iphone, then your ipad can connect to the wifi whenever you have the iphone around.

Of course, this is assuming you have a iphone
