    Internet Dongles in Philipines

    Hello, I dont know if this has been discussed elsewhere, but I connect to the Internet by a 3g Dongle with a 3g sim inside, paying £15pm. for the 3gb download I use.. I will be in the Philipines on the 1st. of January and wondered if in Manila I could buy a simular kind of Sim and pay monthly for the Internet in the same way? My Dongle is unlocked so I can recieve any signal in the World, just wondered if there is a PAYG Internet service there in Manila...Many thanks....PS. cannot ask my missus, all she talks about is a daughter she wants...When will this ever end..

    Or also look up Globe Tatoo, who say they have better coverage than smart...

    But then they would say that...

    Looks like a newcomer given that the SmartBro has been around for quite a while, can't find pricing on the Tatoo and half the site is broken but I will definitely try this next time I am over as the SmartBro has pretty variable coverage in Las Pinas.

    SmartBro is good though, when it works it's good!

    Sun Broadband is pretty good too, you'll see the adverts everywhere.
