Below is the wireless broadband provider that i came across:

P1 Wimax – No coverage at my area (Ulu Kinta)

Maxis

Pro: Cheap entry plan, free modem

Con: Limited usage, expensive price for higher usage volume

PS: My friend at Menglembu is using it,  the reply i got from him is that very slow, perhaps he exceed the quota.

Celcom

Pro: Free modem

Con: Expensive for unlimited plan, extra registration fee.

PS: My friend tried the RM98 plan at Ulu Kinta, got coverage, not very good signal, but can online.

Digi

Pro: Promotion rate of  RM88 per month for 10GB plan with free modem

Con: Tied 12 months in order to get the free modem, limited usage

U Mobile

Pro: Cheap, only RM68 per month for unlimited usage.

Con: No modem included

PS: My fried tried at Ulu Kinta also, saying that not bad.

After considered the usage volume and coverage, i decided to sign up u mobile package & purchase own modem.

As usual, pendrive, laptops and net-books will be the mainstream.  I read from my E-commerce module and noticed that there are 3 types of consumer characteristics.

Impulse ->Make purchase with little analysis

Patient -> Make purchase after comparison

Analytical -> Conduct substansial research before purchase

So, pls do not rush for buying because of the price is cheap. Do some comparison of price/free gifts, do some home work before buying.

My target:

Get a 4GB pendrive

DVD media

Well, as what former PM Tun Mahathir said, do not vote blindly, vote for what u want !

Malaysian flag –> jalur gemilang

The 14 alternate red and white stripes of equal width represent the 13 states of Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Perak, Perlis, Sabah, Sarawak, Selangor, Penang, Terengganu and the Federal Territory.

As depicted on the flag, red symbolises courage, while white indicates purity. The dark blue canton in the upper left quarter symbolises the unity of the Malaysian people. The crescent moon in the dark blue canton is the symbol of Islam, the official religion of Malaysia. The 14-pointed star stands for the unity of the 13 states and the Federal Government. The yellow of the crescent moon and star represents the royal colour of the Rulers.

I’m staying in Malaysia since I born… haha.. I’m proud to be a Malaysian.

My girlfriend and I spent the countdown in Jaya Jusco hypermarket. haha… Dunno why today Jusco extended their operation until 1am. We both went there and brought some breakfast… U cant imagine that the counters there all queued by customers….

The content of the letter is about a Jewellery company repaying or present award to Malaysian customer.

Inside the letter also contained a Privilege card.

My gf’s card is MY016595… Wah, got numbering… That’s mean they already sent out more than 16,595 copies of scam…

On the back of the card got a place for u to scratch whether a prize has been won. My girlfriends got 3rd prizes.

To redeem the prize, we need to call up the number. Then a female with mandarin speaking will talk to u… ask u to put money to their account first then only the transfer the money to u… haha

Other than mailing, they also send out through courier…

Kindly pass out this information to your friends and relatives…

PS: Above images are taken from other people who also received the same scam from KL. Below is the my gf card and letter.

Finally, Proton launched their new car this year. ( I think to fight Perodua Viva… haha )

As u see the outlook, is just a sedan type of Proton Gen2 with slightly modification.

According to the above specs, i noticed that the acceleration from 0-100km/h is very funny. The base line type ( cheapest ) takes only 12secs, but the high line ( most expensive ) takes 14 secs… Dunno whether is because high line equipped with more accessories resulting heavier weight…

Prices:

Proton Persona 1.6AT H-Line Metallic – RM55,800
Proton Persona 1.6AT M-Line Metallic – RM52,800
Proton Persona 1.6MT M-Line Metallic – RM49,800
Proton Persona 1.6AT B-Line Metallic – RM48,449
Proton Persona 1.6AT B-Line Solid – RM47,999
Proton Persona 1.6MT B-Line Metallic – RM45,449
Proton Persona 1.6MT B-Line Solid – RM44,999

General speaking, the price of the car is cheaper compare to previous model such as Gen2 and Waja. How u think about this car? It is worth?

Faster go for audition now to realize your dream.

Other than that, there also had a mid end broadband service up to 2Mbps/512kbps cost RM188 monthly.

For my info, this 4M packages only available for 12,000 users because there are only 12k DSLAM port available. (* At least now they learn how to control )

This kind of speed as compared to those offered by Singapore’s ISPs ( reached 10M~12M ), is still very low, but at least breaks our local record–> Malaysia Boleh…. Duh…

For those Streamyx users ( and myself ), mostly of us will faces a lots Streamyx problem, such as no/loss connection, very slow, unstable connectivity and many many more.

From my personal point of view, i wouldn’t recommend any user to upgrade neither 4M nor 2M packages. Because i do not think that Streamyx can offer this kind of speed with quality due to my experiences. U can read some comments on LiewCF’s blog.

I’ve just submitted form last month to upgrade my current 512kbps package to 1M packages. But after 1 month waiting, i only noticed that my phone line had been upgraded.

Wow, my phone line capable download rate up to nearly 8M, double faster than the 4M package offered by them.

U all must be thinking that how lucky am i, can get such a “ultrasonic” speed.

But i tell u all the truth, my current speed is very slow, not even more than 100kbps. Just a little bit better than dial-up… T_T

* To check your speed, kindly go to below sites.

Jaring Speedometer

TM Net Speedometer

My 512kbps package only capable to get 20% of my max. speed…

So what’s the point upgrade to 2M or 4M where u couldn’t get at least 80%of max. speed ?

For those who subscribed the 2M or 4M package, kindly post the speed that u get…
