With the first shipment in early August 2003, the USIMERA 128K cards were launched by Globe Telecom as the new G-plan Opti-SIM. This powerful SIM card can store up to 750 phonebook entries, 100 text messages, and run applications such as organizers with easy-to-use menu interfaces. Based on Java™ technology that is renowned for its open programming standards, the interoperable SIM card is able to run applications created for Java card platforms, provides faster development time, and offers more efficient deployment of value-added services to individual mobile handset users. It gives mobile operators such as Globe Telecom a platform to evolve and customize services constantly, helping them to better address the needs of their customers. Globe Telecom is offering this innovation exclusive to its plan subscribers. The G-Plan opti-SIM is offered free to all new subscribers; existing subscribers may also upgrade their existing SIM cards, with the convenience of maintaining their current mobile numbers. This 128K Java card platform clearly gives Globe Telecom the tool and opportunity to maintain their leadership in service and technology in the Philippine market. In addition, since the G-plan Opti-SIM is compliant with both 2G, 2.5G and 3G networks, Globe Telecom and their third party application developers are able to continue to operate existing applications and services independently of the network technology. It makes customer transition to 3G seamless, and reduces a large part of the evolution impact on both business processes and customer service. yvonnel@singapore.sema.slb.com www.smartcards.net www.globe.com.ph
