Idea
Cellular, along with Opera Software, announced on Wednesday it is
'giving away' 200,000 hours of free Internet access over the next 20
days to subscribers via the Web Pass service on the Opera Mini.The
companies said the 200,000 hour offer is the 'easiest way' for users
who have 'never experienced the Internet from their mobiles before' to
shed inhibitions and get online. The Idea Web Pass lets Idea subscribers
buy customised data packs within the Opera Mini browser, and is meant
for people with short-term data requirements or don't wish to pay for a
full time internet plan.
To be specific, the '200,000 hours of
free Internet access for the next 20 days' offer is served on a
first-come, first-served basis to users who pick-up the 10,000 Free
Internet Trial Passes available daily that entitle them to one hour of
free Internet, up to 3MB, during that day. Users can only avail 1 Free
Internet Trial Pass during this campaign.
To use the Web Pass service, and the Free Internet Trial Pass, Opera Mini users have to go to the Speed Dial page in Opera Mini and click on Idea Web Pass. From here, they can select Free Internet Trial Pass (3MB) from the list of web passes.
