Designed especially for use in tablet devices like the iPad 3G, the Globe microSIM is powered by a new unlimited data plan exclusively available from Globe Tattoo. The unlimited plan is a pure data plan ideal for daylong browsing so you can constantly tweet, update your status, email, and post photos or videos whenever the mood strikes you, all for only P999 a month.

Now there's no need to take scissors to a standard SIM card to make it fit into the iPad SIM card slot. Globe's spanking-new microSIM is small enough to fit the iPad 3G and hook you up to Globe's wireless 3G network so you can seamlessly cybersurf anywhere in the Philippines.

Manny Escosa, head of Globe Tattoo, explains, "The Globe microSIM is our nod to the gadget lovers out there who want the richest online experience they can get on their iPad 3G. And since the microSIM is powered by our new unlimited data plan, it's now a snap for iPad fans to get Globe-connected and get the best possible browsing experience."

A handy tip for newbies: If you've got the iPad in your hands and are wondering how you can easily distinguish the iPad 3G from the Wi-Fi-only model, just check the back of the device; if there's a black strip at the top, you're holding the 3G model which is a perfect fit for Globe's unlimited data plan.

So if you've already got your iPad 3G and you're dying to take it for a spin, drop by any Globe store to get on the Net. Grab your Globe Tattoo microSIM and sign up for the Globe unlimited data plan for just P999, or if prepaid is your ticket to online bliss, you can get Globe's microSIM for just P50 and start surfing for P5 for every 15 minutes.
