Starhub I-Mode Service...

I've been selected for the Starhub I-Mode Pre-Launch programme before they officially launch this service in Singapore. I-Mode is an alternative to WAP; a mobile internet solution for handphones in Singapore. It has already been widely used by NTT-DoCoMo (Japan) since 1999. Now, Japan is using a far more advanced version of I-Mode called I-Mode Felica (Joint program by NTT-DoCoMo and Sony). I-Mode Felica handsets contain a RFID chip that functions very much like our EZ-Link card except that it can be used to board planes, pay for purchases, open doors and so much more! It is exciting to simply think what the future will hold for us!

Will be collecting my Samsung SCH S410i I-Mode phone together with the free subscription package (until 28/02/06) this Sunday. Do stay peeled for my review on Starhub's I-Mode service!

Hi, can't seem to get mp3s to be ringtones on this phone. Uploaded a few into the phone but cannot be used as ringtone. You have the same problem?

Basically, EZ-Link is equal to felica. So stick ur EZ-Link card to ur imode phone and u get i-mode felica. HAHA!!
