MANILA, Philippines - Passengers looking to kill time at the Mactan-Cebu and Francisco Bangoy (Davao) International Airports can now do so in style.
Smart Communications Inc. (Smart) through its subsidiary Smart Bro Inc. (SBI), recently completed its latest round of kiosk upgrades as it replaced old desktop computers with cutting-edge tablet devices.
From today, travelers who would like to “surf before they fly” can get a taste of the tablet lifestyle with a little help from the Apple iPad 2 or the Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000.
Powered by the Smart Bro SIM, the ideal partner for today’s mobile Internet devices — the iPad 2 and the Galaxy Tab — offers everyone a feel of the future of Web surfing. Gone are the days when a good Internet experience is limited to the traditional desktop or laptop computer. With tablets, users can actually “touch” the Web as both devices are equipped with multi-point touch-screen displays.
“The Cebu and Davao terminals are great venues to showcase these technologies,” said Danilo Mojica, head of Smart’s Wireless Consumer Division. “They are two of the busiest airports in the country and so providing both with world-class devices and connectivity makes perfect sense.”
Last year, SBI blanketed the General Santos International Airport in Mindanao with Wi-Fi connectivity.
SBI offers a wide range of products aimed at bringing the power of the Internet to the hands of all Filipinos.
Its most popular product, the versatile Smart Bro Plug It, comes in prepaid and postpaid configurations and boasts of speeds of up to 2Mbps.
With 3G cellsites located throughout Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao, Smart’s “nationwidest” coverage ensures the best connection whether one is in the city or in the province.
