And those bluetooth stuff on laptops..Care to explain bout that? U juz need wifi.... Most of the laptop has built in. Or maybe can say now all the laptop has built in. Built in bluetooth? some laptop have it. Mean u no need an external bluetooth dongle to use bluetooth. Its function is like transfering file between ur hp and laptop. Correct me if im wrong.

They just put in the 3G card inside the modem to connect. The data transfer just 384kb/s.

RM68 for 1 month..? that sound cheaper than b4.. got any TnC..? like need to subcribe for min 1 year.. or... if online everywer 384kb/s shud be quite ok.. but not recom. to d/l movie or those heavy thing haha... or just use it to replace the streamyx..? haha coz streamyx although is faster but just can use at home, add RM2 more (i'm using RM66 package), then can online everywer, nice..?
