QUOTE(ronn77 @ Jul 28 2010, 12:25 PM) for nowadays usage and demand, peoples want a better bandwidth and high speed to fulfilled the increasing data contents. implementing this policy is like giving you a ferrari and ask you to drive below 100/kmh. I believe if more ppls is not subscribing to that service and they will begin to realise and adjusting their policy to suits our demand. WELL SAID!!!!!!!!!!! It's the power of consumer anyway.   |

Spotted what I think is the YES Wimax Pico Station unit.
It was on mounted on the ceiling in the Lot 10 basement food court between Ho Weng Kee and Bistro Bavaria. It's a all white square box about 10" a side with the the Samsung name in the middle. It has a thin black stripe around the sides. It has two white antennas and a blue LAN cable attached. There is also thick black coax cable (LMR-400?)attached to it. There is no power cord attached (POE maybe?). A flashing red light is seen below the Samsung name. Sorry no pictures because no camera with me. Added on November 16, 2010, 9:50 pm QUOTE(Forum-Modding Newb @ Nov 16 2010, 12:29 AM) That would be sad. Skype calls, which are VoIP, are 60 min = 25.98MB which by your definition of 2.2sen/MB means a 1 minute VoIP call should = 0.9526 sen/minute!!! If they can pull this off the telcos are dead meat. Ok maybe they have to pay for interconnect fees to the Digis/Maxis/Celcoms of the world, add a few sen to that, you could get a price of less than 3-4 sen/minute theoretically, right? You misread my post.How about SMS? An SMS is 140 bytes, again by your definition of 2.2 sen/MB the price of one SMS in an all-IP environment is..... 0.0003 sen!!!  So best case scenario YTL Yes gives us 3-4 sen/minute off-net 1sen/min on-net calls and 3 sen/1000 SMS if they stick to 2.2 sen/MB data....Nah, it probably won't happen.  They'd probably get sued if they offer that kind of ultra-undercut price, but Francis Yeoh did say that "voice-centric business models of the established telcos are not sustainable" (quote from here).I said that VOIP and SMS won't count towards your data usage. It'll probably be charged the same way as other telcos - by minute and by message. Of course if you want to use Skype then it will be counted as data just like when you pay monthly Streamyx to use it. Not totally free is it? Furthermore, Skype isn't free when calling off-net as you were implying in your post above. This post has been edited by totally_skint: Nov 16 2010, 09:50 PM |

And i seem to recall in this forum a statement along the same line when p1 was launched.that's really fast. Give them some time, maybe they are on to something. Or maybe become like many of us have thought. An afterthought. |

QUOTE To clarify, all Internet connections ALREADY HAVE BANDWIDTH CAPS. It's just simple math; a 1.5Mbps connection will max out at approximately 400GB+ month. No matter how a 1.5Mbps connection user chooses to abuse this connection, his cap is there. My main peeve is with ISPs throwing out big numbers when it comes to bandwidth 10Mbps, 8Mbps, 11Mbps, and then applying a data cap that could easily be hit by a connection that is 10% of their advertised speed. If you are unable to support those speeds, don't market them. or rather you pay for a ferrari, as part of the package, the manufacturer throws in enough petrol to go 200km. you want to go further, buy more petrol?Hey guys, I'm selling a Ferrari here... but you can only drive it 200 km a month, otherwise it turns into a Kancil. You still pay for a Ferrari though!!! That is my opinion of a secondary data cap. |

So basically if I sell you a Ferrari that turns into a Kancil after 200km you have no issues? Next time you go shopping for a car or house contact me... I'll definitely have good deals for you. |

If like skint's previous post that the current going rate is an expensive 2.2 sen/MB, I hope Yes can be in the region of 0.1 sen/MB (cheap like electricity pricing), if I can get 1-3Mbps no throttling no caps. 1Mbps true bandwidth would max out at 329GB per month, and be equivalent to a RM336.90 monthly bill! I'd pay for that for sure!!! 0.1sen/MB = around RM1/GB. |

From what I've heard, it will be "slightly" below the current Maxis pricing for data... so you are most probably looking at about 3-4 sen. The premium is basically because the data charges are pay as you go (think along the lines of the call charges of Hotlink vs Postpaid) rather than a package deal.
