YES you can use Nexus Media importer to directly play movies from your USB drive > use the STREAM function at menu and you will be given a choice of video players to use

USB OTG - depend on what type you buy ( so many types ranging from RM 5 to RM 20). I have a Samsung 1 TB USB Harddrive and only one out of my 3 USB OTG cable can detect the harddrive easily without any problems. The other 2 units just failed to detect
I recommended my unit to one of the forumer here but he told me it cannot be used at all on his 1TB drive ( other brand). So getting a right USB OTG cable is another hit n miss affair. Detecting up to 64 GB thumb drives is not an issue at all

I'd think is not advisable to use such methods playing movie continuously directly from the hard drive as battery draining could be a big issue. Anyway is your choice. A better way is to copy the movie you want over using Nexus Media Importer and delete movie after watching and recopy again another movie you wish to watch

My kid has his year end concert and there was a professional camera fixed at the center. Despite the MC keep giving warning that everyone should be seated or if you take pictures, make sure don't disturb other people, nobody cared.

On both sides of the stage, there are big screen projector playbacks.... yet ppl still go to the center, in front of the paid pro camera, and block the view. At the end, the final piece is a group singing with the teachers, etc...both the projector screens showed only a pitch black blank screen. Bravo msia... this is the kind of inconsiderate ppl whom I label rude, completely rude.

Fuyoh... why does this sound so familiar wan...? Was the concert in Kajang by any chance? Would be nice to know a fellow N7 user in Kajang! LOL!

As a personal importer this is what you need

The courier company will inform you your package has arrived and you'll be given a copy of the notice

1. Go to nearest Sirim office , pay RM 100 for Sirim permit ( can bring up to 3 phones or  tablets). Processing takes an hour usually. You need show them some docs or brochure specs of item you are applying for
2. Go back to courier and show them Sirim permit
3. If phones NO other duty/taxes. If Wifi, 3G Wifi tablets - there is a10% tax on item declared value+courier costs. Customs would want you top show the official invoice or email purchase order or any other docs to show purchased value. They will not follow seller declared value. If unable to show, custom will tax based on their evaluation on current market value of similar products
4. Pay the 10% tax and you can collect your tablet

So basically total cost : RM 1070+ RM100 + RM 107

OR you pay the courier company average RM50 service charge + all the sirim + tax costs

If you are lucky ( i was once only) DHL directly delivered to my house without any hold up - that was for a mobile phone bought from UK

Best is buy thro newegg as being a registered company/importer they have certain exemptions from such additional payments

Ah I see. Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Looks like it's best then to wait it out until Newegg stocks the 3G version. Hope it won't be long now, since B&H already has it.

What sticker are you referring to? If you're talking about the permit, as he said, you can bring in 3 of a device. Not sure if can interchange the device ( eg 1 Nexus 7 and 2x Nexus 4 ).

It is just a piece of certificate . You can use one copy to bring in up to 3 units at same time
The certificate will state type of phone/tablets you wish to import in

They deal via Facebook. So you just gotta fill in the CPP and they will sent you an invoice which you then pay before they ship it to you.

Any question, you can call the number on their facebook page and I think Richard is the one who's responsible for Sales Dept.

What I have said is import in through courier service
Personal handcarry rarely you need to declared n most if time custom don't bother if only one unit
If kena custom hold than he need to go to sirim n apply permit to clear it. Tablet will be hold in customs
Tell him be smart bring in the tablet n box open n packaging all opened to show is used personal set

If you travel by yourself, u can carry like as your own equipment. So do not require permit. Last time i bought phone from USA and carry back also custom did not bother to check.
