According to Amazon, there's only 3 discs in the package. What am I going to miss here?

Speaking of Amazon, they have redesigned the top portion of their website.

Arj, when you say courier, you meant the 'Expedited International Shipping' or the 'Priority International Courier'?

POTC 1 & 2, Corpse Bride & Black Hawk Down. smile.gif

Which one's porn? I think it's because of Raya lar. Everyone pokai, everyone trying to make money. It's ok lar, they are 'supposed' to tax anyways.

I think I will go and give them a visit later.

If you're planning to go to KLIA POS, be prepared to spend a lot of time there.

As for my case, they even asked me to go to Kastam's main office to get some chops to say that what I imported is appropriate. Once you're done with that, you will have to go all the way back to the POS, and do whatever they asked you to do.

I still don't understand why they have to make us go through that many hoops just to get such a simple thing done. Even so, the people there are friendly, so all the best for ya bro. smile.gif

I find it weird that the 1st Spidey is displayed in 1.85:1 while the rest is in 2.40:1.

I find the screen is wide enough. Do they really have to go wider? biggrin.gif

On another note, can the PS3 upscales 480i Bluray discs? I noticed that POTC 1 & 2 special features discs is in 480i which looks terrible here. It's just plain odd that it upscales DVD nicely but not Bluray? Any ideas?

Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting a PS3 primarily as a Blu-Ray player since I heard that it performs pretty well in playing Blu-Ray discs.Do you think it is worth getting a PS3 just for that?Of course I could pick up a game or two from time to time.

Which model should I grab, the 60gb or 80gb one?I'm leaning towards the 60gb for its cheaper price unless the 80gb has something important that I need.I don't think I'd want the 40gb model because it dropped support for SACD playback and PS2 games, unless it is significantly cheaper than 60gb model.
Please advise, thanks smile.gif .

If you really don't care about games, might as well just go with the cheapest option since the more expensive version does not offer anything 'extra' to you. Join the club! smile.gif

On another note, the extra HDD space might be worth it if you love watching trailers in HD. There are also tons of game demos that you can evaluate before purchasing them.

Hmm i call to KLIA and a lady say i must go to the bilik 2 or something beside Air Asia at KLIA.
Where is kastam main office?

You know the POS Malaysia building beside the LCCT? Everything is there. Bilik 2 is within that building as well. If you're really unlucky like me, they will ask you to go to the main customs building, which is opposite the POS building (It's the tall building opposite the POS). It's within walking distance, but you have to go to Level 2 AND Level 6 to get some dude to stamp your papers.

Make sure you go a bit early, the customs closes at 6 PM. However, Bilik 2 guys leaves at 530 or something. I don't think they're open during public holidays, that's the leceh part.

rx330,

No upscaling for SD content for us then huh? Does the standalone player does that?

I see the other building is just close is it,i thou must go out KLIA and go to other place again then come back to KLIA.
So they will charge based on the price write on box? Ai why amazon still list the full price of 2 bluray instead of 1.

They will tax whatever you've payed for. smile.gif

You kena even for 2 BDs? What the hell?

So did they charge you from the full price or promotion price?
How to let them know the actual price,take the credit card resit?

They charged whatever that's stated on the box, which is the amount that I paid to Amazon.

Bring you receipt if you think they're gonna charge you full price. You can also print the invoice from Amazon's website.
