i've been using Digi Unlimited Package which was previouly at RM99 for the past 2 years.
they only charge RM68 or RM69 pm with an option to have RM33 pm for another unlimited simcard for Data only.
connection is stable and i havent had any major problem so far

cindyen, 1st, check which 1 have best coverage for you. coverage is important! ok?

test all 3 telcos (maxis/digi/celcom) - use your own and borrow your family/friend simcard to test the speed.

2nd, you want to use on pocket pc, is it for data only or including voice plan?

data only = can surf internet and sms only.
data + voice = can make/receive call like normal mobilephone.

price per month for data only:
digi (max 384kbps, usually edge 267kbps) rm66
celcom 3g (max 384kps) rm68
celcom 3.5g (max 3.6mbps) rm98
maxis 3.5g (max 3.6mbps) rm99

* maxis here is maxis postpaid unlimited data plan, not maxis broadband. maxis broadband simcard is locked and can only use on the modem provided from maxis.

if you want + voice plan, pls refer to their website, or in average, the price above need to add the price below per month:
digi rm20 access fee only / rm50 no access fee (all talktime)
celcom rm30 access fee only / rm50 no access fee (all talktime)
maxis rm30 access fee only / rm50 no access fee (all talktime)

good luck thumbup.gif

not9to5, for digi, 2nd data sim rm33 per month is only for primary line with voice option and subcribe to data plan rm66.

digi voice plan min is rm20 per month (or pay direct debit via credit card to get discount rm10 per month).

so monthly fee for 2 data simcard will be rm119* (rm20+rm66 for 1st simcard and rm33 for 2nd simcard). not rm99 (rm66+rm33).

* price excluded 5% tax & call charges

no lah. its depend on your location. coverage is important!. icon_rolleyes.gif
he-sham
eventhough celcom coverages are wide, but its not reliable enough..

example, full bar GPRS signal here in kuala sungai baru melaka always disconnect while surfing....never the connection exceed 2 hours..most of them frequent disconnection within 10 minutes...

never get stable connection....always connection time out... not worth it for rm68/month...

but in 3g area i should say the connection is good.... so it means, if u're not in celcom 3g area, avoid celcom...

if got grps coverage only, dont subscribe lah. better use streamyx combo 384kbps, rm60 only per month. hehe tongue.gif
Exquisite
Agreed with you sentlon. But celcom broadband is worse, Maxshit the worst!!
Been using celcom broadband nearly a year.Service frequently interrupted.When it happen Celcom always replied that they are upgrading. Well to be fair I didn't see any improvement or whatsoever in term of service quality. Maxshit? I think there's a lot of threads here in LYN testifies.

hi.. i have surf celcom 3g website and saw celcom unlimited data plan D99...is this package contain voice or data only? need clarification..


what speed of that data package? 384?

i confuse about bradband and 3g?
llamasonic
i went with digi at first and promptly cancelled - the service was totally unusable in a moving automobile. Maxis 3g is usable but for long drives I found hardly any coverage between seremban and jb.

seremban to kl has coverage with maxis 70% of the distance.

i am curious to try celcom - anyone else have much experience while on the bus or in a car / train?
