FREE to browse here

I was browsing smart’s wap site when i saw this message:

Scr000010

It says it is “Free to browse here. Click here to learn more“.

Scr000011

Well i thought that it was free to browse using smart. but it turns out that the FREE to browse thingie was only for their wap site. Well, i already know that.

I feel i got fooled. But maybe it was me not clearly understanding what the message was.

What do you think?
