HOPEFULLY DiGi's 3G will features HSDPA and cheaper price than Celcom Broadband and Maxis Broadband. Most of all,HOPE that DiGi's 3G/HSDPA will provides better dl speed, low latency <100ms and has best stability among others.

alright, thanks for the explanation.

BTW, I'm using huawei modem but it seems that I'm using the dial up connection rather than broadband. why eh?

Coz digi only reach Edge technology (2.5G) nowadays and seems you only get GPRS coverage (GPRS's speed is similar to Dial UP=2G) within your area smile.gif so that's why
