diversified jud ang negosyo sa san miguel corp unya ang gi offer nila kay 4G na man ilang internet sa liberty.. aw patay jud ang competensya kay 3G pa man ang ubang player..

i think majority is still using cellphone for texting and calling ra.....unlike sa US or other countries..... so, not really a need pa ang 4g connection....that might have explained why wala pa ang liberty telecom diri....

dugay nang 3g, i only see a handful of times nag-3g video call or surfing the net.....

correction lang sa title, actually its PLDT and JG Summit agreed to have shares swap, PLDT,bought 51.55% share of DTPI and JG Summit have 12.8% share in PLDT itself,although,a brilliant move to both parties coz it benefits them,if we take a look in a positive side, this will be advantage for both telco in terms of network range and accessibility. MVP and JG knows the status in the future, SUN Cellular is very fast growing mobile network,its because they owned the UNLIMITED SERVICE,pang masa, while the PLDT ( Smart) has the money( manny) and almost have SITES nationwide especially in province areas,which SUN Cellular still acquiring,but we know the fact the SUN is the biggest treat of SMART,you see, manny is trying to stop the growth of SUN but now he acquire majority shares. " IF YOU CANT BEAT THEM,BUY THEM" i believe thats what MVP did...GLOBE will be facing some dilemmas on how to counter this giant TELCOS.

Imo, WiMax is already a 4G technology and both Smart and Globe are already offering WiMax.

if sun signal/connection will get better after the buyout/merger/whatever you call it, globe will have a serious problem.... hehehehe...

i, for one, will switch to sun as long prices remain the same but better signal strength....

for now, very satisfied TM user here....
