I was hoping to use Yes as my backup broadband in places where my DiGi broadband coverage is poor (like my living room). But looking at the required RM30 a month, I'm not so sure...

Then again, if Yes coverage is better than DiGi at my place, I might junk DiGi Broadband altogether.

I remember MCMC held the auction for 2.5 GHz WiMAX and then cancelled it after awarding the spectrum to some players, because suddenly they realised Astro had already hogged the 2.5GHz band.

Such great planning and foresight, our telecom authorities.

According to coverage.yes.my, the closest reseller to Penang (where I am) is in Rawang.

Great! Yet another show of brilliance from the smart folks at YTL.

There is also no mention whether YES signed any MVNO agreement with any local telco operator to switch to GSM/3G when the user moves out of YES coverage. That's what U Mobile did when they first startup.

No SIM card, how to roam on GSM network?

Clarification regarding the RM30 MUR by the YES facebook admin:

"Hi everyone, to answer your questions on credit, credit will not expire. However, for the account to remain active, RM30 has to be loaded into the account each month. Any unused amount will be available for you to use the following month, s...o nothing is wasted smile.gif As for our rate plan, Yes is mobile internet and from what we have surveyed, most mobile internet users do not use finish their monthly quotas. That means, most everyone is paying for something they eventually never use, that's why we believe the utility model with rebates on top of that will consistently save our customers money."
