While scouting first-hand user feedback for PLDT’s WeRoam service to convince myself to subscribe, I found Paul’s story about his experience in Davao.

A quick visit to PLDTWeRoam.com confirmed the latest promo packages available for new and potential subscribers:

Wireless GPRS/EDGE card with PLDT WeRoam includes the GPRS card with 3 months free subscription to WeRoam and free WiFi internet on all Airborne Access hot spots. Subscription for 12 months is Php1,050/month.
Wireless GPRS/EDGE card with PLDT WeRoam includes a Sierra Wireless Aircard 775 plus 3 months free subscription to WeRoam and free WiFi internet on all Airborne Access hot spots. Costs Php12,600 one-time.
ThinkPad R51e 3GA w/PLDT WeRoam includes a brand new IBM laptop, a Wireless GPRS/EDGE card and 3 months free subscription to WeRoam plus free Airborne Access Wifi. Php7,614 for 12 months.
ThinkPad X40 N2A with PLDT WeRoam includes a brand new IBM laptop, a Wireless GPRS/EDGE card and 3 months free subscription to WeRoam plus free Airborne Access Wifi. Php11,133 for 12 months.

More information can be found here.

Regular WeRoam-only subscription is Php1,700 per month. Still pretty expensive for me considering I already have a free 18-month Airborne Access subscription (again, thanks to my blog patrons).

Note: Prices include E-VAT 0% interest installment plans are subject to the conditions set by the participating PC shops and the banks. Use of PLDT WeRoam unlimited WiFi Internet requires a WiFi-ready laptop PC. International roaming is not included in PLDT WeRoam’s unlimited usage.

I got interested with this new offer from PLDT but the problem is that its very expensive once you go roaming. Since most of the time I’m traveling, its gonna be a hard chance for me going online when your passing the coasts of three different country in one day. I’ll try to find a different alternative. I hope i find one.

I am interested for WIFI internet connection for my laptop but I want to know first how much would it cost for the subscription and also want to know more of its details and use.

Used PLDT weraom sierra 775 about three months ago. It wasn’t as nice as they’ve claimed it to be. If they’d upgrade it, then maybe it could be an attraction. But until then, it’s still…
