3G for DiGi! It sure rhymes. I have been waiting for this, my Sony Ericsson w850i sure can’t wait to put my itchy hands on the 3G services which will be rolled out by DiGi and Times Dot Com anytime soon. On January 25, 2008 DiGi and TDC signed a definitive accord on 3G spectrum (source: theStar).

Exactly one month ago, I wrote an article on DiGi Yellow Postpaid which covered thoroughly the charges for prepaid plans. I was contented with Fuyoh last time. However, this 3G and postpaid news comes at the right timing. I am actually considering to switch from digi prepaid to digi postpaid (1 Plan). For the past three months my mobile phone usage has surged up to above RM60 per month. The highest it went was in December (festive seasons) where it amounted to almost hundred ringgit. Woaw… This is too much for me to swallow.

Cibol and Alvin are the only one I know who are on digi postpaid. I am actually putting my eyes on Postpaid 1 Plan. 13 sen flat rate!!! I can opt for call instead of sending texts soon. I mean one text cost 15 sen sedangkan one minute phone call cost 13 sen. It’s really my kind of deal, what more can I ask for? Moreover I can call my parents, who are using 012 and 082, at 13 sen per minute. That’s what a son should do often.

Look… I am looking for reasons to convince myself, not to persuade you, to subscribe to postpaid. I don’t mean to advertise on behalf of DiGi and the company pays me nothing for this post. Tak tahan lagi. Must change to postpaid once I am back at Kuching. By the way, I am taking my flight to Kuching on the evening of January 28.

Who’s interested to know the six numbers in my friends and family list? Hehe.
