About time when World Cup 2010 is aired.

Widescreen should enough for now...

yeah sick of watching fat assed actors and football players....

i checked my new astro decoder and my sharp lcd only have component and no s-video connection,so cant get a monster cable s-video from u. i guess even if i buy from you the monster cable video3 component,i guess the picture quality still sucks. right? i just have to bear with it for now. hopefully to get hdmi from u soon. thanx

thats just Frank Lampard

yeah we need widescreen at least for now

well that's why I'm hanging on to my CRT for the moment...wait till the source improves

so, June 2010....lets just make countdown...haha!!!!but, i think they can make it earlier coz they have the facilities now i think...then, newspaper berita today got article abt measat 3a.....story about the satelite will function and the result can be seen i think on 23/24 july.....no more no broadcast during raining.....just wait and see...

Astro's CFO said yesterday that they plan to roll out HD service in Sept 2009, with main drivers to be sports and movies. He said they already have the decoder box but haven't decided on the pricing model yet. Likely they may give some kind of offer or priority for long-time/high-value Astro customers. Apparently the cost of the HD decoder box is actually lower than that of the SD decoder box.

Traveler, where did you get this info?

if this is true.... bestnye!

I was there when he said it at a conference yesterday.

u mean astro broadcast or other?

Yes Grant. I'm in the finance industry... and he was speaking at the InvestMalaysia 2009 conference.

Cool. I'm in finance too.
Btw I got my WRT610N for RM570.

bro...wut is that ? WRT610N....?????

Nice.. am sure you're going to like it. I love mine.


The Linksys WRT610N is a router with 4-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, dual-band Wireless-N support (2.4GHz and 5GHz), USB Storage Link (ie, hook up a USB HDD as NAS), QoS and all the other usual features.

Now that Astro is going HD, I think I will have to upgrade both my projector and TV. Will wait until HD service starts before upgrading, as I hope to see prices fall a bit first.
