Wow, “Astro B.yond, HD Content Available” is now onto its version 3.0, pushing to 1,500 replies soon!

Just like you, I'm excited with many thoughts in mind. Thus, the inspiration for the event below:

Lowyat and ASTRO has joined together to bring you the “B.yond the Lowyat Forum” workshop.

The workshop (to be held in ASTRO’s HQ) will include a tour of its facility and a chance for you to meet up with the tech whizzes behind ASTRO B.YOND.

This is when it's meant to happen:

Date : 20 March 2010 (Saturday)
Time : 10:30am – 12:00 noon
Venue : All Asia Broadcast Centre,
Technology Park Malaysia,
Lebuhraya Puchong-Sg. Besi,
Bukit Jalil, 57000, Kuala Lumpur

We are opening this to five (5) persons, which should promise to make the tour a lot more personal and engaging.

So, if you want a chance at one of the five slots, just email in your request to astrohd2010@gmail.com before 17 March (Wed). Once we receive your email, a security form will be sent to you to fill up. Send it back to the same email once you are done. You will be notified by us latest on the 18 March (Thurs) once security clearance is obtained.

Well, we look forward to your email. Till then, let’s keep the B.yond conversation going!

Sincerely,
Seet
On behalf of ASTRO B.YOND team

p/s: Since it’s the weekend, I will check the mail box on Saturday and reply to as many requests as possible, otherwise, the team will respond on Monday

Bro, my sincere answer is, they are telling you the truth. As for the details, I wouldn't know because I'm not a broadcast engineer nor work for that department. I suppose this is a work in progress thing which we'll find out together

Ah, I must clarify, I'm from an external company that works with Astro comms team

To Neb, of course there's f&b provided

Ooh, SiriuslyCold you were a uni student in 1989?

Pardon me, off topic for a while, just finished reading this book titled "Chinese Lessons: Five Classmates and the Story of New China" by John Pomfret and was very very fascinated by it. Perhaps I can learn about your view as a student then.

Ok, back to the topic, rsvp deadline is tomorrow, I will be in the office until 6pm, so, cepat cepat la.
