Usually, when calling to other operators will cost more expensive because the other operator will charge the interconnect fees.
If YES going to absorb the interconnect charge, then it's fine with me though hehe.
I saw the comparison chart you posted, it seems that they are comparing on-net charges but not off-net.


That one is not using their device.
It's call using computer like MSN messenger and Skype.
I believe they will provide a soft-client like a messenger as well.


Unsure whether their device is multimode (2.3/2.5Ghz), cause Japan and US are running on 2.5Ghz WiMAX, Malaysia is 2.3Ghz.

as i mention, use more pay more, use less pay less =/

and yes, this is a prepaid method, i dun think it's suitable for hardcore internet surfer

Anyone mind to calculate the monthly price I have to pay for 16GB?

The rates and rebates are not clear without some examples.

Thank you~

Share to u guys.

Thanks for the information. Wah you wake up so early? hahahaha ...

Yea, you are right on the Google Talk. I believe it's capable but didn't turn it on because it will contradict to the voice operator which will be selling their devices.

How about SKYPE? Those app can be installed on smartphone to do voice call. If my smartphone has a SKYPE and someone else has SKYPE on PC. I can talk for free (paying data)

Should be 16 x 30 = 480.
After rebate 30%, 480 * 0.7 = RM336.

Not sure if they have maximum cap on the bill amount or not. Eg. more than certain amount, you dun need to pay anymore...

i goin to go to work soon

they goin to roll out the applications to smartphone soon.

Added on November 19, 2010, 9:11 amBro, whenever usage exceed 4 GB, the rate will become rm0.021

so Rm0.021x 1024 x 16= Rm 344.064

It's a Prepaid Method, As long as u got credit left, u can browse whatever u want.

And No, they dun have the cap to give u unlimited download.

For me, i think this is the best way to control bandwidth

Sorry. Forgotten that they charge per MB.. not used to this ler.. 1GB = 1024MB..
Still expensive.. Say No dy..

yea. it's for hardcore user then no..

unless u are rich enough

If for personal home use, is GO 4G Dongle sufficient or ZOOM 4G Router?

Thinking of better reception or speed. But the router not available atm?

Wait for official launch.

Based on ur calculation it would be roughly rm200 monthly. Not bad if the speed is 3-5 times faster than 3G and consistent.

Currently using Digi RM158 16GB quota with average 128kbps speed and frequent disconnections. So RM200 is not that expensive to me. Need a proper Internet.

Do hope these pay per use system will keep most of the hardcore at bay. 100GB a month?

do they provide voip software for pc?

Seriously I do not understand how Yes works. Do I need to but their phone to get mobile internet? I just want surf internet on my phone! If I have to carry their devices around to get their svc, what is the point?

Yes.....there is a software like messenger for you to install in PC, and when someone call your 018 ID, the software will ring up.... and can pickup all.

that is if we are at home right? what if i'm gng out, how can i get connection on my phone?

Hmm ... The pricing doesn't seem too bad for those of us who don't download actually. I've been using Streamyx as my area only has 1mbps for my area.

Even if I get 2mbps I am thrilled! Not everyones house is near an exchange. I just hope YES has my area covered. If it's not good for downloaders maybe the highway will be better for the rest of us? At least my YouTube will be good. Can't even get proper streaming with 1mbps. Will checkout today's launch.

Outside also work same like home, just bring the small wimax device(router+wifi) out, and wifi connection ur phone to the device.
This small little device size is like a small soap...powered up by rechargeable battery.

also thru wifi.. if u r using a wifi enable phone, u need to carry the YES huddle around in your pocket.. but the thing is..it's battery only lasts 5hours they say. so u need to charge it every 5hours if u r on the go...

"Credits that don't expire" ..... so what does this claim mean??

If I pay RM30 on the first month, then it will be gone the next month even if I don't use it, and I'll have to top up another RM30 right? So the credit actually EXPIRES! Or will it be carried forward and I only need to have minimum RM30 in the account at any one time?
