Is there any data plan specially for iPad?

So far cheapest i saw from Digi is RM68 per month
but iPhone is RM58 with talktime and 1GB data which is sufficient.

Im looking something below RM50 purely for iPad 3G
dont think will exceed 1GB data per month

Take Celcom, RM 48 monthly only

Last time, i had a digi postpaid. Then i get a secondary line, purely data, at rm38 per month.

buy iPhone 4 + 1GB data plan with voice Maxis for cheap RM100.

I'm sure you need a phone. iPhone 4 is good enough for everyday use.

Then tether your iPad with iPhone 4.

Maxis
Postpaid -iPad Plan Entry 3.5GB RM70
Prepaid iPad data Plans- RM70

Digi
DG Smart Plan- RM68 (Data Only)
iDigi Postpaid 88 -RM58 (Free voice calls+Data)

Maxis definitely too expensive.
WHat i dont understand is why iDigi is cheaper yet with voice and data.
Wherelse Smartplan is only with data but more expensive.

DiGi coverage is horrible in many parts of Klang Valley.

Why not uMobile prepaid? It is RM 28 per month of unlimited usage.

Details: http://www.u.com.my/prepaid-packages/unlim...mobile-internet

...and so Digi Smart Plan and Maxis data plans.

on Digi, you'll just get throttled speed beyond FUP quota. on maxis, you'll have to purchase additional quota upgrades.

Using Maxis Wireless Broadband SIM (cut to micro-SIM by the seller) in my iPad. RM48 for 512kbps max speed with 1.5GB quota.

http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/broadband/tss/index.asp

P/S I registered my account some months before Maxis brought down the speed for the package to 512kbps max. Till today I am still getting 2-3mbps download speeds so I am not complaining

How is the quota? Same 1.5GB? Thanks.

Digi is horrible? I find it acceptable. Celcom is worst if I remembered correctly. Maxis is better choice if you can keep your usage down.

Using Digi RM 58 package , fast and no hassel

Happy with it

what does they mean by quota?
500MB permonth? means u use 500MB after that they charge u or it slows down?

I m using Digi Discovery day plan for my Ipad. Only cost me RM38 - RM5 (for auto billing) with 3GB usage. Am happy with it. BTW, I also sometimes take the SIM out for my notebook surfting

Quote = 500mb

Overuse :

Maxis & Celcom : charge per kb's

Digi : slow abit but FOC

Hmmm thinking of Digi RM 68 but kinda exp, but then think of the weekly plan hmmmm

i think RM 38 daily plan is reasonable for all

Unless you want it to be uncapped , then i recommend RM 68 package

nevertheless , no extra quota charges makes you safe from overloading

link for RM38?

Please click here

There are special t&c for RM 38 but i think it is reasonable

honestly, you can't hit 3GB by just going browsing internet unless you heavy on downloading stuff. don't forget that you will have wifi access and won't be using 3G all the time

Im using maxis rm70 per month as im always on the move during weekdays,so can only get wifi on weekends.when i use speedtest,i can get up to 3mbps.usually it would just stay at 2mbps with a 3g connection.i use around 3gb per month usually...

Looks like this 2 are the best option

http://www.digi.com.my/internet/broadband/...ntractfree.html
Digi RM38-5 (auto billing) RM33 per month
3GB Quota (Morning 700kbps, Night 128kbps)

Umobile RM28 per month
http://www.u.com.my/prepaid-packages/unlim...mobile-internet
Unlimited (14Mbps - 64kbps)

But seems like Digi is better choice due to their coverage, while Umobile capped the speed to 64kbps once u hit 500MB.

hmm..is it better to get the wifi model & get the yes plan instead of getting the 3G model?still confused..hmm

hm..u got me there bro..thx for the advice..so i guess 3G would be the one for me then..so just need to decide which service provider provided better offer for the 3G.hmmm...still conpuse..

i guess i have to do the comparision on the plan first. see which one is cheaper..

How Bout YES??Got anyone using now in their Ipad??

Better get a 3G ipad

at the least 3G ipad can last for 9 hours while the mifi last only for 5-6

weird , mine can last bout 8 hrs

i turn off brightness , equalizer , mail checking , geo tagging and minimum background resources/apps

no nid to use until so long

maintain it at 5hours per charge can edi

the more you charge , the happier the Lithium ions

So , ure planning to buy which model bro

Ccontrary to you, i find Digi & Maxis failed big time at my location.
Only celcom can use.

but if in KL, then all 3 operator no difference.

Been using Digi Smartplan nearly a year now, satisfied with it only Rm68 per month on top of my normal call and sms bill

If I exceed 3GB limit, they just cut down the speed, no extra charge, If I'm not at home I turn my N8 to a hotspot to browse the net using my notebook

in KL the coverage is quite good, not to mention the speed

Hi guys, I was wondering, whats the difference between the rm38 and the rm68 Digi plans?

This post has been edited by waggygee: Apr 29 2011, 08:23 AM

Mainly quota differences.

and also capped speed after 7pm

For Discover Day Plan RM38 :
* Average speed of 700kbps(d/l), 200kbps(u/l), from 7am-7pm.
* After 7pm, speed will be throttled to 128kbps and P2P will be blocked.

Alternatively, you can use DiGi Prepaid Internet (starter pack RM25 for 5 days data).

So my iPhone is signed to the RM58 plan by digi. Can I use it for iPad?

Is there another plan which cheaper than 33 per month? 128kbs is like edge speed? Or faster than tat?

I already using iPhone plan and now plus iPad plan will be too burden for me

U Mobile prepaid, RM28 monthly, 500MB before reduced to 64 kbps, nationwide coverage

Or tether with iPhone ? No need another SIM

patut lah un-limited. 65kbps will be very pitiful slow.

M on digi day plan RM33. these few days, the signal spotty. Always becoming "E" instead of "3G".

Depends how you use lo, 500MB maybe sound very less, but it also has 100 local minutes and 30 local SMS, although can't utilise with iPad 3G

For Discover Day Plan RM38 :
* Average speed of 700kbps(d/l), 200kbps(u/l), from 7am-7pm.
* After 7pm, speed will be throttled to 128kbps and P2P will be blocked

this plan can be used to play dota or HOn after 7pm? Will lag ? @.@

Guys just a quick q, can i use de sim card fr my existing digi usb broadband dongle in my ipad2 3g?

yes , but it needs to be cut into micro sim

there this thing called sim sharing right?

two sims, one line

Hey guys. I went digi center @ bangsar shopping center, the guy there told me the rm38 can only be used 7am-7pm. After 7pm cannot be used. Then i tell him not after 7pm speed reduced to 128 meh?
Then he said ya, but the ipad cannot run on 128speed. Too slow..
Wtf??? He still say :"trust me.. Im working in digi..."

Fren, trust me - i'm using it now to post this reply. Speed is acceptable as long as you are not using it for graphics intensive website or video.

if as for playing dota or hon will lag ? @.@

PLease don't spam here. iPad cannot play Dota la.

i mean use the plan connect to our laptop and play zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

im using DiGi Prepaid Broadband for my iPad.

this is the cheapest that i can found,
but,must topup rm100 at one time, so the credit will last for 100 days, which means rm1 per day.

but if topup only rm30, it will only last 5 days.

http://www.jailbreakipad.org/
not very sure then

This post has been edited by bernard90: May 1 2011, 10:39 PM

i tot cheapest is uMobile? RM28 only.

eh? really? idk as my place doesnt have u-mobile coverage.and i dont want to tied with any contract

umobile is prepaid. The line Celcom. Wat tok u?

doesnt have u-mobile promotion here

you can get umobile from mobile phone dealer whole malaysia. wat tok u?

u-mobile with no 3g coverage in my area. wat tok u?

how u know? u mean celcom no 3g coverage in ur area?

I also narrow down to two option. Digi Discovery 38 and UMobile 28. Must consider coverage area as well...

confirm with my friend, no dealer selling u-mobile here.

uMobile use Celcom. Should be wider than DiGi lo.

WHere you stay?

come to Soviet Sarawak


of course my place do have Celcom 3G coverage.
but, DiGi Edge is more stable than Celcom 3G here.

If you're on the move so much and need internet connection, I'll assume that you go out station a lot. If that's the case, pay more for Maxis. Not to say Digi is bad, is just that the connection in rural area is next to none... I know cause I'm using Digi now and I move around quite a lot too.

Oh! Just to share with you, I was previously a Maxis user and there's not a day I don't regret switching to Digi because of the frequent drop calls, delayed SMS and poor internet connection outside KL or any other big city. None the least, Digi has the cheapest service plan available when you do the maths, and you don't have to worry about over-shooting your 'quota', which can save you hundreds if you're a heavy user. Well, I guess we can't have all good things under the same roof right...?

U-mobile and Yes is too infant to be called a mobile data plan because their coverage is very limited. It restrict the 'area' that you'll be able to travel if you need data connection for your work. Trust me, the restriction is really maddening and I don't think they should call themselves high speed mobile data provider yet...

Celcom... is a mystery to me like the toilet sink to the plumber... sometimes their're good, sometimes their're just... not there... I think it's the frequent breakdown of their cellular network that causes the problem. GL company like TM or celcom has very bad maintenance record (ask all those Streamyx user) and I guess this should be the only reason why this phenomena happened so often. Otherwise, I would think that it should have an upper hand agains Digi.

Well, my 2 cents opinion and my conclusion; pay more for Maxis coverage. Get Digi if you're an al'cheapo like me. The rest can just kiss your ass and remember to wave your hand when you see them passing by... at least for this moment...

U can use mywi on ipad 1. And i used that before upgrading to ipad 2.

Is it juz top up RM100 and digi will change the period to 100days? Got any limit on speed?

This post has been edited by Jerryc: May 1 2011, 11:36 PM

means can tether ipad 3G plan to laptop for surfing net?

yeap. top up rm100 for 100 days.

but regarding the speed,i cant confirm

Get digi discover postpaid rm38, sign up for auto debit credit card for a rm5 discount, total u only pay rm33 /mth. Speed if good during the daytime, but like mentioned above not for intensive video/ dling between 7pm till 7am.

Correct me if I'm wrong,

Discovery day = RM 38 /RM 33 (auto billing)
7am - 7pm = 700kbps
7pm - 7am = 128kbps(just normal browsing)
Capped @ 3GB

&

Limited edition prepaid = RM 100 (3 months) = RM 33.33 per month
24hrs = 384kbps
No quota, unlimited usage?

Yep but Jb ipad 1 only..

how is the speed of 384kbps ? Anymore used it ?

if the place no have digi and maxis broadband/3G coverage, got any idea how to connect to internet without using wifi?

This post has been edited by bernard90: May 2 2011, 01:55 AM

If that area isn't under 3G coverage, it will automatically revert back to GPRS/EDGE, yes it's slow but at least you will still remain connected to the Internet.

got anyone here using YES 4G plan on ipad?

I'm using celcom RM 48 package, it is still acceptable.
At first I want to take digi de, but when I go back kelantan, digi line is suck.
If you just stayin kl and less go outstation, digi is the best choice.

For far i think have few option here which if pretty good for me.

Digi Limited Edition Prepaid Internet
- top up for 3 month to get lowest rate
- RM 100 for 3 month which mean RM33.33 per month
- its unlimited online if not wrong

U-Mobile
- RM 28 per month for unlimited online

Yes Campus Pack (EPP Student only)
- RM28 for 1gb data Per month

I think the Digi Limited Edition Prepaid Internet have 3GB/month quota, after that it slows down, but its the cheapest plan with no commitment other then the 100days. If you don't reload after it expires your line will still have grace period of 90days for your to reload to keep your line active.

Is the Digi limited edition prepaid internet still available?
Seems like a pretty good deal...

ya... but umobile also not bad if u within the coverage

u-mobile have very small quota of 500MB/month that if exceed it will slow down to 64kbps (dail-up modem speed). If you see youtube you can easily exceed 500MB

u going to apply digi? y not consider maxis?

maxis too exp...

digi is the cheapest right now...

before maxis offer 500mb data free if u buy iphone 4 outright

i going for tat but now promotion over

so stick with digi

i using idigi plan for my iphone already

Nope, so the only way to use Yes 4G on an iPad is to get their Huddle device and use the iPad to connect to it via WiFi.

ya... just called Yes.

and the campus pack just for EPP student only...

sad case...

Am using Digi RM38 for 3G of data, speed reduced to 128K after work. Works perfect for me. Auto pay by credit card rebate RM5, so balance RM33 to be paid monthly.

Actually it's not too bad to go on credit as well if you're a light user. For Yes 4G, every month you will need to reload RM30 of credit to keep your account active and after calculating, RM30 is almost equivalent to about 1GB of usage. If you don't need so much bandwidth then can actually consider Yes 4G as well. Only drawback is that you will need to get the Huddle device which retails at RM399. Also suitable for iPads with WiFi only.

only digi center will provide plan for ipad ? normal digi reseller shop can register plan and cut microsim?

For the RM38 plan, is weekend (Sat & Sun) day speed = weekend night (after 7PM) speed ??
TIA.

being used to using maxis with my ipad,i just cant imagine having a speed of 700kbps on my ipad.700kbps for my phone is still ok.for my ipad,no way!

u using maxis what plan now?
