From the recent turn of events I assume that Globe would eventually want to shut off unlimited SMS. As for the IM requirements, it doesn’t require 3G, just data (GPRS or EDGE).

Scratch my last question about pricing.

Subscriptions to myGlobe IMEVRYWHR:
1 day = P 20.00
7 days = P 120.00
30 days = P 500.00

For these prices you might as well just stick with UNLIMITXT. Same price anyway.

The problem with this is that it runs on the 3G network. I used to have my N91 on Dual Network, but the signal kept cutting out (around Quezon City and Marikina) and the service often wouldn’t let me send text messages (which kind of explains the need for IMEVRYWHERE). In the end, I just switched my phone to GSM mode. Working fine now. I guess Globe just isn’t ready to handle it’s 3G customers yet. Also, how’s the payment for this service? Do you have to pay for data transmission?

I was thinking about getting a Globe S40 phone, but it won’t run IMEVRYWHR!

I guess it means: do you have working GPRS on the 6630?

I installed to my N70 and it’s working, but when i tried to installed to my Nokia 6630, theres an error “Connection failed (GMX GPRS). Make sure your phone have GPRS.”
Why I encountered this error?

The odd thing is that nobody seems to be talking about IMEVRYWHR in blogs. Not enough buzz!

interesting business model. 20 php for unlimited voice, text and photo messaging. this is pretty good as it forces users to get higher end phones and push 3G usage.

will ARPU really increase? will people take up this service given the S60-only compatibility at this time. only time will tell.

a j2me client should be in the making.

That’s too bad, I think Globe thought that IM should be something fancy, instead of something simple and functional.

About Yahoo! Go – what happens, can’t connect? Well on Smart postpaid, it doesn’t even work all the time. I’m on an N70.

So, are Pinoys ready for Mobile Instant Messaging?
