no box doesnt mean no tax, u still need to produce receipt
or u can try ur luck at green lane, whcih is at the centre of the CIQ counters, dun go far left or far right

if no operation, then no issue, if kena, its 300%

Wah, suddenly now so much Dune fans already ah hahaha, just when i thought of forgo-ing my Dune that i pre-ordered @ US399 due to the high tax charges... I did a rough calculation and it will cost me approx RM2.4 - RM2.5k to bring it in here...

Nevertheless i think its one heck of a player with no competition yet if you are looking for a BD + Media player together...

Down side is, i dont know how this new 2.0 player will fare as compared to the 1.0 (even tho ppl always say new things are always better), and the warranty which is in the US..

Cheers

can also,but dont do that la, very heart broken one

be a bit generous la, pass or loan to fren use few mths let it gather dust better lo.
maybe use a dirty cloth, wet a bit water, and clean the set all round.

that should do the trick( hopefully no custom officer in this forum... Haha haha)

Just brought the Panasonic BD60 Blu-ray player. Need opinion on how to build a home theater system. Thanks.

I am not quite familir with home theater system. Do I need a receiver or just 7.1 speaker is enough?

as long as the power adaptor of the device can accept 100V~240V range
u can use it anywhere in the world

i think the voltage is not the only thing you need to look out for. you need to make sure the device is not drawing more current than the rated output of your adapter.
