TrueMove iPhone Package @ 599 Baht

DealzDan — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 07:20:09 +0000

What: It’s good and it’s true. Buy a new iPhone 3G or 3GS directly from TrueMove (nah, no gray or black imports) and enjoy this package – wait, even your old iPhone 3G or 3GS allows you to get the package, just show proof of purchase or they check your phone’s IMEI number at the store.

Now here’s the package setting you back 599 baht/month:

Voice (any network): 300 min
SMS: 300 sms
MMS: 50 mms
3G*/EDGE/GPRS: unlimited
Wi-Fi (1 Mbps): unlimited

By the way, tethering your iPhone to use as a computer modem rocks. In 3G areas in Bangkok I get speeds of up to 4 Mbps (they advertise 7.2 Mbps …). Faster than my land line. Tethering the iPhone does not work with an AIS or DTAC SIM card.

Must say I like TrueMove’s shaking up of Thailand’s mobile communications …
