Globe Telecoms: Accepting Pre-registrations for the iPhone 4
Globe now accepts pre-registrations for iPhone 4. On Globe’s iPhone 4 microsite, they have a form there that you could fill out to let them know you are interested with the iPhone 4. I noticed in the form that they’re asking from what telecoms provider you are currently with and if you are a postpaid or a prepaid subscriber. They’re also asking if you’re a current iPhone 3G/3GS user.
It’s quite disappointing though that they do not have any information (on the website) on the pricing of the iPhone 4. There’s also no mention of a specific date when will the iPhone 4 be officially launched here in the Philippines.
Take note that Globe is not taking those form submissions as pre-orders. They just like to know how many are interested and how many subscribers from other networks that will probably change to Globe Telecoms. 
You will receive information from Globe when you can pre-order online.
If you’re currently a Globe Telecom subscriber, you need to get a micro-SIM. Or you can just have you existing cut from stores that offer that have micro-SIM cutters. Read more of the FAQs of iPhone 4 pre-registration in Globe’s microsite.
