The biggest impression for Yesasia given to me is, their claimed that:

user posted image Billed when order shipped

We guarantee that your credit card will not be billed until your order has been shipped out.


But in fact, when you first time order, their will wait until the payment is collected before their dispatch your order instead of what their said that your credit card will not be billed until your order has been shipped out.  So, the actual fact is another way round, their will billed you before your order has been shipped out.  laugh.gif

Unlike Amazon, I think Amazon is truely guarantee that your credit card will not be billed until your order has been shipped out.  whistling.gif

For subsequent order, after the first order, from Yesasia, I still don't know yet whether their follow the same procedures or not.  Yet to verify.

Just received replied from Yesasia regarding 1 of my order placed on 13/11/2009 (took their few days to reply this simple mail. doh.gif )

I placed order on 13/11/2009

www.yesasia.com in my account page told me, my order shipped on 17/11/2009, after their comfirmed my credit card payment had been gone through. whistling.gif

And in this latest replied, their said my order shipped from Hong Kong Warehouse on 19/11/2009 (Great!!! shakehead.gif ).

In my credit card statement, transaction date is 13/11/2009 and posting date is 20/11/2009. rclxub.gif

Really efficient. whistling.gif

It is so funny that they haven't set a definite release date until now but yet Amazon already eagerly put 'em on pre-order long ago!  rclxub.gif  With the time taken might as well release the Extended Edition together by then!  rolleyes.gif  I guess this "hot title" plus others too that is in the long list of making their hi-def debut on blu-ray have yet to see the light of day.... only time will tell.

My list includes the Jurassic Park trilogy, Star Wars hexalogy  biggrin.gif , Saving Private Ryan, Se7en (not the sucked Canadian version), Blade trilogy & etc etc.... amongst others

Apart from those, I also eagerly waiting for Titanic. laugh.gif

Here are some interesting news from www.highdefdigest.com that some of you probably already know. tongue.gif

1. 3D Blu-rays Hitting PCs in 2010

With the right monitor and a beefy enough computer, you'll be able to watch 3D Blu-ray movies on your PC thanks to Nvidia 3D Vision.

Nvidia is a company more commonly associated with videogames than with movies. Their graphics cards have been powering PCs for years, and their chips can be found in smartphones, tablets, and even the Playstation 3. Early last year though, they launched a product called 3D Vision that picked up a pretty strong following with the gaming crowd.

3D Vision is a software application that allows games to be played in 3D when coupled with Nvidia's active shutter 3D glasses. Of course, a PC with decent specs and an appropriate video card is required, as well as a 120Hz monitor.

With an update to the software early next year – launching in tandem with the first 120Hz 1080p monitor – 3D Vision users will be able to watch their 3D Blu-ray discs on their PCs. Nvidia has stated that most Blu-ray drives will be compatible, but hasn't released a specific list yet.

Acer will be launching the monitor in early 2010 and is expected to announce a release date and price shortly.

In addition to 3D Blu-ray content, Nvidia is working to incorporate 3D viewing of web based content, photo slideshows, and various non-gaming applications including Google Earth.

2. Universal Studios' “Flipper” Discs Offer DVD and Blu-ray in one

As we mentioned yesterday, starting with the Bourne series, Universal Studios has announced that they'll be releasing what they're calling “flipper” discs, which will feature the Blu-ray version of a movie on one side, with the standard DVD version on the other.

The idea behind the discs, according to Craig Kornblau – president of Universal Studios Home Entertainment – is to allow consumers to have the option to watch their content on non-Blu-ray sources if they so desire. For those with portable DVD players, laptops or game systems with DVD drives, or a DVD player hooked up to a television in their house, this is a very interesting concept.

For current Blu-ray owners who want the option, it will all come down to pricing, which has not yet been announced by Universal. Since both formats offer all the special features normally on the discs, there's no loss in content, which means a slight hike in price is likely.

Universal also outlines an interesting demographic that they're targeting. “Universal's flipper discs are the perfect way for consumers to future-proof their collections while still enjoying their favorite movies on all their existing DVD players” says Kornblau. “The flipper disc offers an easy way for viewers to convert to Blu-ray now or at any time in the future.”

The new “flipper” versions of 'The Bourne Identity,' 'The Bourne Supremacy,' and 'The Bourne Ultimatum' will hit stores January 19th, 2010.

3. Buffalo Announces USB 3.0 12x Blu-ray Burner

Buffalo’s new Blu-ray burner – hitting Japan this month, with international releases later – boasts impressive transfer speeds. The downside? You can’t really use it yet.

Blu-ray burners seem to be pretty slow in hitting the market, and let's face it, slow in burn speeds as well. 8x burners are commonplace, while 12x burners are still relatively rare. Buffalo, well known for its computer components and accessories, has announced the release of what they say is the fastest Blu-ray burner yet. Not that anyone can use it though.

The much touted 12x burn speed of Buffalo's new burner is only available via a USB 3.0 connection. Unfortunately, USB 3.0 isn't quite here yet. Until it is, Buffalo can only promise 7x burning speeds, and that's only if you're using a Turbo USB 2.0 chipset. When this is launched in Japan in early December, customers will have the opportunity to pay around $450 USD for a Blu-ray burner that – for now – functions at lower than average speeds.

Of course, USB 3.0 is only the first part of the problem. Recordable Blu-ray discs that handle up to twelve times speed aren't exactly flooding the market. In fact, Buffalo only recommends one Panasonic disc type as compatible, and even that comes with an asterisk.
