Globe Telecom’s Loyalty Program

Thank God I’ve been a subscriber for them for the past 10 years. I just called the Globe Hotline and talked to an agent. They agreed to my request in giving me a new phone for my next loyalty availment. In 2 weeks they said they’ll call me for confirmation for my application for the loyalty program, yet again. For the past 6 years I’ve been using the Loyalty Program so I get discounts from my monthly bills. I usually got the 10k as a discount. That basically translates 1k less every month for 10 months. But Globe will keep me locked in for an additional 2 years. My sister gets a similar thing but she gets a 5k discount, 500 a month discount for 10 months, locked in for 2 years.

I’m getting the Iphone 3GS 32GB! Yay for me. It’ll be locked to globe, I don’t mind though, since I don’t have any plans in switching at all. I’ll be locked to globe for another 2 years, again. They said I just have to add P6,XXX for the phone. They also said that I have to add P1,xxx for the 16gb version, I said to myself fuck that, I’m getting the 32gb. LOL. The agent I talked to was Nette Ferreras. She was personable enough, and hopefully I’ll get that phone call in 2 weeks if there are any available Iphone 3GS 32gb’s from Apple. I’m just praying that when I do get my Iphone that Apple doesn’t release their 4G version any time soon. =P

Apple to Join TV Market in 2011

The roadmap to Apple television (as opposed to Apple TV), as Munster sees it:

  1. A new Apple TV set-top box within the next few months, with a TV input and DVR built in. “With the popularity of ad-based internet TV (Hulu.com) and subscription models (Netflix’s Watch Instantly), we believe a-la-carte (iTunes) video purchases have lost share against other video models in recent months. As such, we believe Apple is exploring a subscription-based offering for its TV content in iTunes.”
  2. An iTunes TV Pass within the next year. “Apple could leverage its deep library of content with many network and cable channel content owners to provide unlimited access to a sub-library of its TV shows for a standard monthly fee ($30 to $40 per month). Such a product would effectively replace a consumer’s monthly cable bill (~$85/month) and offer access to current and older episodes of select shows on select channels.”
  3. An Apple television set within the next two years that could wirelessly sync with iPods, iPhones and Macs. “Such a device would command a premium among a competitive field of budget TVs; we believe Apple could differentiate itself with software that makes home entertainment simple and solves a pain point for consumers (complicated TV and component systems).”

As evidence for Apple’s interest for pushing deeper into the living room, Munster cites: COO Tim Cook’s statement last month that the company will continue to invest in Apple TV because “we fundamentally believe there is something there for us in the future”; patents covering digital video recording; and a five-year, $500 million partnership with LG to produce LCD screens.

I wouldn’t buy an Apple Television even if it was sold for 99$, I’d rather get an LCD TV or a Plasma TV then hook it up to my Home Theatre PC. Does everything I want it to do, and it’s a computer to boot. None of that Apple Mini crap or crippled computers that can barely do anything. My HTPC can play HD Content, Multitask, has terabytes of storage, and play games. What more can I ask?  =p
