sana nga maging competitive ang rates ng sun kahit na dumami na subscribers nila. i also inquired at a sun center. unfortunately, wala pa daw cla as of now post-paid plan rates.

Curious remarks on this upcoming CMTS provider... Interesting. I'm surprised no one seems to really be concerned about the coverage. Would anybody know the extent of this? I hear GSM Phase I and II involves around 700 cell sites. Smart has 2,900. Is this a deterrent?

Globe started with around 250 cellsites while Smart around 200... it took them around 2 years to reach 750 cellsites.
For some it might be a turn off while others would take the risk just like when those 2 telcos were starting against giants Piltel, Smart (Etacs) and Extelcom... where are they now?

one thing to keep in mind is that cellsite technology has also advanced so that the new cellsites can cover larger areas than the older ones.
definitely there will be blind spots in the beginning, but if metro manila is adequately covered and if their rates are half of the competition, then sun shouldn't have too much trouble building critical mass.
at the end of the day, it's good for all of us subscribers for a newcomer to come and shake up the competition. better rates and better service (supposedly) for everyone.

its good that digitel has been raised from the dead, more options for us. so wala pa pala silang postpaid plans.
i have to commend them for bringing out dummy phones at southmall las pinas, at least people get to feel the phones esp the p800 and siemens.

Digitel is not dead, or did not die in the first place. They're making a killing on landline operations in the North, which is their service area.
Sun Cellular uses the most recent GSM infrastructure available (well, two years ago when the project kicked off)
I am renaming the topic to reflect the real name of the brand.
