Aside from the micro-SIM only postpaid Plan 999 for Smart Bro, I also got access to a prepaid micro-SIM card for Smart Buddy. I am told just today that these micro-SIM cards are now being distributed to select Smart dealers nationwide and should be available to the public by September or as early as next week. The Smart Buddy micro-SIM will retail for Php40 in stores. It will work with the iPad WiFi+3G and any other mobile handset that requires a micro-SIM, including an open-line iPhone 4 (the SIM pack puts a disclaimer that the "Apple iPhone 4G is not available from Smart Communications Inc."). For details on availability and additional information on the prepaid micro-SIM, you can ask @smartcares on Twitter. I fired up several internet bandwidth meters, hooked up my Smart Bro Prepaid account and positioned my laptop to get an HSDPA signal. This could be a response to the SmartBro 3G Price Cuts on the prepaid kits (Php3,800). Read more in our articles including "Smart Buddy Prepaid Micro-SIM for Php40" and "Smart Bro now up to 2Mbps".
