Doesn't look like any of the models is being sold in Malaysia

Sony Malaysia still selling HX/BX/EX models. No W models.

*sigh* The waiting can be good. Saving some money.

Is Malaysia actually broadcasting in DVB-T2? And what makes you think FTA broadcasts in Malaysia is watchable.

Malaysia so far broadcasting DVB-T1. And well, you're right, FTA here is full of Gomen BS propaganda. But some times there's good stuff. And when there is (I.e. Wild Wild West some times back) the quality is even better than Assteruk SD and with no rain fade problems too. I think T1 here is transmitted in Dolby Pro Logic since the TV show Dolby symbol and say it's stereo on digital channels.

There is announcements that they're going to officially launch with T2. Just that the previous imbecile info minister rice keeps causing delay to the launch!


Thing is, I'm all for a new 3D HD TV now. Cannot stand the LG TV lagging on analog input anymore because I'm actually using the TV as a HD3D monitor for my consoles- the tuner is just a nice extra. Even sometimes HDMI will lag... And I figure if I have to get a TV since here is no such thing as a 32" HD3D monitor (no tuner screen) with four HDMI ports (and thus don't need external switch), might as well future proof it with a working T2 tuner...

Which reminds me...Is it better to buy LCD/LED TV with build-in DVB-T/T2 tuner, or buy the DVB-T/T2 decoder to use with the current TV?

But can we expect Cheeky Saber to better than Rice??? hopefully la

I eat my word. Just saw Sony Center selling DL42W804A.

Very nice set, but RM3499 :/ Have to think carefully before taking installment :/

If you can still find this Sony Bravia 55HX955, then you will have a DVB-T2 capable TV. Mediacorp is already broadcasting test signals in DVB-T2.

Specs are here: http://asia.cnet.com/product/sony-bravia-k...ed-46728504.htm

Didn't stated if it's DVB-T/T2 ready, just only "Digital" was mentioned.

But the thing is, the W804A series have made it to Malaysia. Although the price isn't cheap as per all Sony products...

Someone in another thread here said its 2999 for the 42 inch. At Aeon Midvalley.

I need to go check Aeon. Since Sony store selling for 3499, sounds like Aeon has a better deal.

Can you see the pic I've attached? It shows I am watching HD5, if you know what it is.

Oh, only HD5 in DVB-T2 trial one? I thought it'd still only on DVB-T...

There are 4 other Mediacorp test channels broadcasting in DVB-T2. My HX955 is able to receive it.

So jealous with the DVB-T2 over there. Meanwhile, in Bolehland...

What are the other 4 channels?
