    Thats the thing, it could have been more affordable if it didnt pay for the use of a name. Its no different to what Acer does with Ferrari painted laptops and phones. You pay more for a different paint job.

    i like that globe is offering 4g connections already. however, i think they should first improve the coverage of their 3g network before rolling out 4g.. it's hard pag walag back-end to support the front-end..

    Actually sir, them rolling hspa+ and soon to be LTE, is actually part of the solution. It will improve current 3G connection on both speed and latency

    I don't see anything in globe's site about the capping, where did you see / heard that capping from?

    I saw the advertisement on TV. It said "No Capping", which is good.

    However, it's an up to 10 mbps speed. I'd be happy with a constant 5 mbps than erratic up to speed.

    was subscribed to globe 3mbs plan for three years, and i also use tattoo whenever i'm out, and i can attest that they really cap the connection to 1gb/800mb per day, which is why i switched to pldt mydsl.

    but if they explicitly mentioned in the ads that this stick doesn't have capping, then its great, just a bit unfair to their broadband subscribers who also pays 2k+ a month.

    If you use the supersurf promo on your tattoo, then definitely there is a cap. Supersurf 50 and 225 users have daily limits. But those on postpaid tattoo subscription and those on time-based browsing (pay per use basis at P5 for 15 minutes) do not have a cap.

    Two things is this compatible with our macs. Can we also use it with our USB router or the myfi device?

    Sorry to hear your predicament. I am a globe dsl 3mbps subscriber as well, And I use globe tatoo as well when I'm mobile (using my postpaid) I certainly and easily go over 1gb worth of download a day, since 1 episide of game of thrones is above 1gig already, and I download multiple 720p episodes as well.

    I download movies that are 6gb++ in filesize, and Globe never throttled my speed. I even download large files using globe tatoo, and get a steady 2mbps stream. I do get sluggish connection on tatoo sometimes, but I just change location and look for a better spot, and everything is good.
