that is the question mark so far. They called 100 to complain but no definite answer whether TM will waive the 1 mth streamyx charges or not. Will update here once get some kind of news.

But according to the terms & regulations, netbook should arrive within 14days of streamyx activation and there will be 50% discount for the first month of subscription.

Now TM did not comply with the first terms, so how they going charge in the bill I am not sure but since it is their terms & regulations, they might just said they have the right to change it according to their will???

Added on August 15, 2010, 11:01 amSo the story goes on, 2 of my friends which had not got their 1Malaysia netbook, one of them received it yesterday (after 1 month). After getting all excited and opening it up and trying to surf, his can't do it wirelessly...seems the wifi card had some problem, so he will have to return it.

So I compared my netbook (HP) with my friends netbook (1Malaysia). Difference are

1) Processor - Hp 1.83Ghz vs 1Malaysia 1.66Ghz
2) HP is all black whereas 1Malaysia is I think champagne gold (apparently 1Malaysia got all black color too)
3) HDD size is different. 250gb vs 160gb, but this was already mentioned in the brochure
4) Bluetooth - HP built in whereas 1Malaysia is a dongle attached to 1 USB port (looks like a cheap thingy)
5) Software - HP loads of software such as MSOffice, Norton, etc whereas 1Malaysia only comes with standard Windows Starter 7. And you must activate it yourself for 1Malaysia, HP is already activated.
6) Weight - 1Malaysia is lighter from HP (1kg vs 1.15kg)
7) Extras - same for both laptop - 3 port USB, MMC reader, video out, network port, mic, webcam, mono speaker (yes its mono, sounds only come out at the left side).

Added on August 19, 2010, 11:34 amAnother friend of mine got 1Malaysia netbook and it was totally different from my other friend...this was all black and much better looking than it. Completely different..battery shape is different, touchpad is different material..much classier and better looking than that cheap thingy gold color netbook. All specs are still the same though.

Added on August 19, 2010, 11:36 amThis is only 3-cell battery, even the HP netbook which I have also can last a bit more than 2 hours...Unless you want to invest your own pocket money and get the 6-cell battery, then i guess you are stuck with 2 hrs of battery life for now...by the way I am not sure if can find 6-cell battery for 1Malaysia netbook...anyone?

Yes it is quite true, 1malaysia netbook runs faster than hp mini, and i believe partly because 1malaysia netbook only install basic win7 whereas hp mini already has norton, hp quick web thingy, microsoft office trial....

anyway i too got fed up with the slowness of the hp mini so i install win xp...drivers easily available from hp site...

but for malaysia netbook, it will be a nightmare...my idea is to list down all the device managers from the control panel...then for major components such as graphic, network, etc try to find drivers from the manufacturer website...it might jadi might not la...but that is what i will try...basically if fail...can still load back win 7 mah...

my streamyx was activated 30 july and i got my netbook 1 week after that (aug la)...my 1st bill came early 4 aug and the charges are as follow

streamyx
30th july to 31st july - pro rate 2 days RM5.58 + rm21 (hp netbook)
1st aug to 31 aug - RM88(4Mbps) + Rm21
Discount 1st month - less RM54.50

phone bill
charge rm1 (for detail billing)
other calling charges and tax service

my phone bill and streamyx bill separate because register different names

Added on September 3, 2010, 11:01 ami think you didn't get what i am saying earlier on.

Now under win 7, goto device manager and list down all items for eg.
Display Adapters -> Intel® 82865G Graphic Controller
Network Adapters -> Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit
this is just 2 samples, u must list down all item under device manager

than proceed to install xp, then go to device manager under XP and check which one is missing or exclamation mark (!). For eg network got (!), so i will go to broadcom website to download that driver and for display adapter, go to Intel website to download.

As I said it might work, might not...just get ur Win7 backup ready for restoration if u fail to install XP.

yes you can say that....usually the vendor of the pc/notebok/netbook will provide drivers for their product for different OS(s)...but for natsys they only provide drivers for Win7 as you can see from their website

dun want to open the back cover yet cos it will void the warranty...so at the moment stick with 1GB...did not check the speed of the RAM though...

yes i have it...but netbook at home currently..i am at work...maybe tonite...

its pc2-6400 400Mhz RAM

1Malaysia using Pos Laju to your house address
Hp Netbook using courier for me was Tiong Nam Courier Services (they call me before sending to confirm where to send)

@lazirsuy: you can download all win7 drivers for Natsys netbook from this website

http://www.natsys.com.my/support.html

I believe because that guy apply new line with 1Malaysia package. So what happens, TM will fix the line first and then process for the 1Malaysia will take as normal more than 1 month. So this guy will be billed for the 1st month as according to normal phone charges. Once streamyx 1Malaysia is activated then only the rental charges will go away.

for HP Mini back cover easy to open, but for 1Malaysia netbook the back cover got sticker that will void the warranty if opened. Mine was HP Mini and I open and upgraded to 2GB without hassle.

did u apply a new telephone line? Was your house already connected to nearest tiang telephone or did that contractor had to do that? my friend also applied new telephone line and the contractor charge him rm50 cos he said he had to buat sambungan from his house to the tiang telephone...

u can apply at TM Bachang or go to the TM booth in Tesco or at Menara Telekom at MITC.

No 1.

No 2
I believe this package is only for new registration not upgradable

No 3.
Yes..this is for the HP netbook promotion...if you get the 1Malaysia netbook than it is flat rm38/mth

I spoke to someone from TM yesterday...the promotion is off now since the target set by TM has been achieved.
