Well, this week, we saw someone using it! Does this mean that the service will be available soon?
Here was the photo I took when I saw it:
Apparently, as announced, the Bayan Wireless Broadband utilzes the EV-DO technology. According to evdoinfo.com,
It was really fast! We streamed videos as if we were using a wired broadband connection. For a 512kbps, it seemed like 2mbps! Well, I think that the reason behind it is, the Bayan Wireless Broadband isn't saturated yet.
The Bayan Wireless Broadband speed just annoys me. Why? I am subscribed to a 3mbps Globe Broadband, A wired DSL service by Globe yet, my "modified" Sun Broadband wireless and this 512 Bayan wireless is way faster than what Globe provides.
*Globe Broadband did improve a bit when 2010 entered, still, not fast enough for a 3mbps sub.

>Evolution-Data Optimized or Evolution-Data onlyFor the rates? A blog post dated April 06,2009 said that it would be P699.00. It was also mentioned there that it would provide around 256kbps. But from the info I got from an insider just today, January 08, 2010, the one I saw was subscribed to the 512kbps. I haven't asked if higher speeds would be also available.
