so as a smartphone user .. its better to have the data on ..
if you are digi prepaid user like me .. just tick it lo ...

1 day maximum rm2 ..
or 1 week rm15

but currently im using it free ..
coz last time promotion .. topup rm30 free 5mb data .. and now the promotion is topup rm50 free 2mb data ..

my total free data have 58mb

if you are just whatsapp user and light facebook surfer ..
it will only cost u 10mb perweek ..
i never on msn, rumor say msn drain more data than whatsapp ..

i also feel like this ...but arc produce a bit more detail than samsung..

Buying a smartphone without a supporting data plan is just like buying a car but will not drive it because it is raining outside, cos afraid the acidic rain will spoil car paintwork. You do not need a data plan as long as you are always in vicinity of wireless points.

If you are concerned about data cost, DIGI offers many choices - they are the cheapest. I used 2 Digi prepaid plans and one Celcom postpaid plan. Have tried Maxis also. However Digi pricing is still the cheapest. Example on prepaid, as far as I know you can subscribe to just the normal prepaid with voice/data. When you are on data - you can choose max RM3/day or RM5/day. If you are solely on data , they have a prepaid internet package unlimited at RM 2/day. There could be more choices now - just check it at their sales outlet or website

i dun hav any problems with wifi connecting here in my house, im using tplink modem btw..

internage storage yes, i also quite dissappointed with this prob.. even the previous x10 also got 1gb, this one a lot more less, sheesshhh..

btw, i do read somewhere whr on se phones, about the wifi prob, sumthing about the phone can detect until 10, but the modem set to 12, dunno wht im talking about lol..

Very strange problem. (I use DIGI)

Suddenly this morning some apps can't connect to internet. For example, Facebook app gives this error: NO PEER CERTIFICATE...and Soccer LiveScores gives "Check data connection", Email gives "Can't connect securely"

Most other apps can connect to internet (Engadget, Browser etc)

Is it a problem with DIGI network or the phone?

PLEASE IGNORE... it's okay now...it is because my system date is 1980 (i took out the battery for a few minutes this morning) ... my mistake

RM63 per month for unlimited usage.. no need to worry about exceed the usage! previously i was using maxis.. buta buta.. exceeded plan.. and charged 250 by maxis.. so damn angry... now no more worries of exceed data usage.. LOL

It's okay now. Was my stupid mistake. Took out the battery for a while and the date reverted to 1980.... guess that's why apps with secure connection doesn't work.

I switched from Maxis to Digi last year too

I have mentioned previously I couldn't have my Arc wireless working with my home - it can detect but just won't connect to internet. And it disconnect often. So yesterday I tested at 2 cafe - the first one no problem and I'd say is superb ; instant detection and connection to internet was a breeze. Happy proving is not a hardware issue.
At another cafe, faced similar to my home experience, detected but just unable to connect to internet. I asked for help from forumer Omnislash9999 and he told me the Arc is locked to N America channel settings 1 to 11. This means if the router channel settings changes dynamically and is above 11, internet connection is not possible ? This is indeed something new to me. Why did SE locked the wifi channels up to 11 only ? Geez - this is an issue one need consider if you are using outside wifi.
He send me this link which explain : NAmerica limited 1-11 while Japan/Most of the world wireless channels up to 13

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels

So I assume that I couldn't get the internet connection on wifi possibly due to this reason - my router dynamically changes beyond above channel 11. My Galaxy Tab and Incredible S has no such issues on my home wifi network. What I did, I reset my router and Viola !!! - it can work now and no more drop off issues. If this issue of the Arc being limited /locked up to only 11 wifi channels , this is indeed a setback

yeah, thts wht im talking about, till 11.. sori, not enuff info bout tht n im trying to explain it lol...

Thinking to get this phone to replace my X10. Seem there is a lot of issue with the phone.

Not really. No issues with mine.

Only one annoying thing... if i assign a custom ringtone it will change to random default tones after restart. But this is a Android 2.3 bug, not the Arc,

so far im happy with it too ..

just finish download Nova HD , enjoying it now ..smooth .. nice screen and nice sound quality

no comment on ringtone since i dont really bother to put mp3 ..
