<p>The FREEBIES are a lot more clearer now..</p>
<p>I hate it when they breakup the lines and say free! I really thought  it was Free calls and text to Globe/TM, albeit, unli call and text.</p>
<p>Good thing this &#8216;free&#8217; is really free this time unlike the (previous?) G-Plans (non-consumable plans)!!!</p>
<p>^consumable amounts can ONLY be used for calls, text, and mobile surfing. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share-A-Load, wallpaper downloads, ringtone downloads, and others will be charged on top of your bill!</span></p>
<h2>Part 3: Explanation.</h2>
<p>You get to consume the amount that you pay for plus freebies unlike the G-Plans (that I think Globe is still offering).</p>
<p>Gotta love these consumable plans! I am currently on a 250 consumable extension line and it is really flexible! (but now I&#8217;m planning to switch to this)</p>
<p>Here are some examples.</p>
<p><strong>First: 299 (E)</strong></p>
<p><em>What you get</em>: unlimited calls and texts to only 1 Globe/TM number and consume 199 for other things*</p>
<p><em>You pay</em>: 299**</p>
<p><strong>Second: Plan 299 (A)</strong></p>
<p><em>What you get</em>: 10 min calls &amp; 200 SMS to Globe/TM and you get use the 299 for other things* or in a different perspective, 10 mins + 499 texts to Globe or 56 mins of call + 200 SMS to Globe&#8230; sweet <img src='http://blog.roiji.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><em>You pay</em>: 299**</p>
<p><strong>Third: Plan 499 (A, E)</strong></p>
<p><em>What you get</em>: 10 min calls, 200 SMS to Globe/TM, unlimited calls and text to 1 Globe number and consume <span style="text-decoration: underline;">399</span> for other things*</p>
<p><em>You pay</em>: 499**</p>
<p><strong>Fourth: Plan 499 (E, E)</strong></p>
<p><em>What you get</em>: unlimited calls and text to 2 Globe numbers and consume <span style="text-decoration: underline;">299</span> for other things*</p>
<p><em>You pay:</em> 499 only**</p>
<p><strong>Fifth: Plan 1799 (A, A, D, E, E) [I guess by now you get the point]</strong></p>
<p><em>What you get</em>: 20 min call, 200 SMS to Globe/TM, 3hours mobile surfing, unlimited calls and text to 2 Globe numbers and consume <span style="text-decoration: underline;">1,799</span> for other things* (P200 is not consumed)</p>
<p><em>You pay</em>: 1,799**</p>
<p>* consume the total amount (example 199) for 199 text messages, 30 min for Globe-to-Globe call, OR 9 hours mobile surfing (example 299) 299 text messages or 46 mins of Globe-to-Globe calls, OR 14 hours of mobile surfing</p>
<p>**if you did not go over your consumable balance or avail of other services</p>
<h2>Part 4: Verdict.</h2>
<p>If you are on a tight budget and  only call and text people sometimes and have a significant other subscribed to Globe the Plan 299 (E) is perfect because you get to enjoy unlimited texting and calling to your significant other and  use the 199 for texting or calling your family members and other friends or surfing the net (Google Maps navigation, checking email, or Google searching on the fly).</p>
<p>I like it and I set it as an example because my bill last month sky rocketed to 850 pesos instead of the usual 250, because my significant other likes to ask for load and avail of UNLITXT and of course I have to reply to all the messages sent to me.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t text a lot and most of my load is consumed when replying to people with UNLITXT!</p>
<h2>Part 5: Other information (FYI)</h2>
<ul>
<li>Lock-in period is 1 year for a subscriber who did not avail of a handset. 2 years for those who availed for a handset.</li>
<li>There is a early termination fee of P550 if you want to cancel out early. (You still need to pay for the handset if you avail of it)</li>
<li>Unused freebies will not carry-over to the next month.</li>
<li>You can change your freebies as often as every month. (let&#8217;s say your significant other does not want to load up on July, then opt for A instead of E for July)</li>
<li>Plan 999 and above will NOT consume P100 from your consumable amount when availing of the SUPER ONE freebie (E) [another perspective of the first fine print]</li>
<li>You shall not unlock the phone given to you by Globe. (do it after the lock-in period hehe&#8217;)</li>
<li>You can also avail for other handsets than the ones provided.</li>
</ul>

<p>When I was passing by Greenbelt 3 to get to Greenbelt 1, I noticed a &#8220;new&#8221; Globe hub on the way. It&#8217;s beside Powerbooks, in front of b_connected, near Healthy Options, etc..</p>
<p>It&#8217;s nothing new, I pass by Globe stores all the time but this one got my attention.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-16.19.22.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-236" title="2010-06-15 16.19.22" src="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-16.19.22-225x300.jpg" alt="globe greenbelt 3" width="225" height="300" /></a>It&#8217;s an advertisement for the <a href="http://galaxys.samsungmobile.com/" target="_blank">Samsung Galaxy S</a>!</p>
<p>So I went in. Circled the display looking for the phone. And at the middle there is the beautiful phone. Three of them <img src='http://blog.roiji.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I picked one and meddled with it.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1MB0HpgJFDg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1MB0HpgJFDg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>It&#8217;s bigger than the iPhone but a bit lighter and thinner (than 3Gs?).</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a shiny piece of black glass. And I mean shiny.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.12.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-237" title="2010-06-15 17.24.12" src="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.12-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><a href="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.26.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-238" title="2010-06-15 17.24.26" src="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.26-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>The screen is all black when the screen is off but when it turns on all you can notice is the screen and nothing but the screen!</p>
<p>The screen is AMOLED and it&#8217;s very very nice! Everything is crisp and vibrant!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.34.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-239" title="2010-06-15 17.24.34" src="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/2010-06-15-17.24.34-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>And very captivating as well</p>

<p>There is also a list view of the menu if you wanna go old-school or tired of the panes.</p>
<p>Interesting though, the fonts are different. I wonder if you can change the font or it comes bundled with the skin&#8230;</p>
<p>If only the phone was configured with the Android Market and WiFi I would have run some benchmarks nyahahaha~!</p>
<p>I wanted to play more with the phone but I was already fondling it for about 20 minutes. I never cared about the iPad that was in front of me :-p</p>
<p>I wanted to say more about this phone but I had spent only so little time with it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m definitely gonna buy this phone maybe December or on my birthday, March.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m still waiting for the price to settle down <img src='http://blog.roiji.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Unless of course the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/exclusive-motorola-droid-x-preview/" target="_blank">Droid X</a> will be released here with a better competitive price by that time. I won&#8217;t hesitate to buy the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/exclusive-motorola-droid-x-preview/" target="_blank">Droid X</a> if it&#8217;s around 30k, give or take 5k.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;m gonna be waiting for this dock.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/galaxysdock.jpe"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-244" title="galaxysdock" src="http://blog.roiji.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/galaxysdock-300x182.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="182" /></a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s really drooling! hahaha</p>
<p>As for the price&#8230;</p>
<p>I asked the sales lady on when is the availability of the Galaxy S.</p>
<p>She told me it was available since <strong>June 3</strong> on pre-order. And the price is: <strong>Php 31,000</strong>!</p>
<p>She said that you can also avail of this phone at 0% interest on a 12-month payment.</p>
<p>I also asked if when I will get the phone. She said that it&#8217;s on &#8220;reservation with the source&#8221; and you can get the phone in 1-2 weeks.</p>
<p>Now, I don&#8217;t know if the price she said was on contract. I hope it isn&#8217;t!</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t care if it&#8217;s locked to Globe. I&#8217;m on Globe anyway.</p>
<p>And on December, I hope they bundle the dock with the phone or something.</p>
<p>And that dock! I hope it&#8217;s gonna be cheaper than what I&#8217;m thinking.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a lot of hoping going on here&#8230; hehe&#8217;</p>
<p>Anyway, let&#8217;s just hope wish for the best.</p>
<p>A lot of Android goodness awaits our future ^^,</p>
