Could it be something to do with coverage? I've never experienced such issues before.

I've become accustomed to the ritual of getting up in the wee hours of the morning to keep up with our European exploits. If you students think it's tough, try imagining what it's like for us working folk. It isn't a though we have the option of skipping class or falling asleep in it. No work = no job = no pay. Simple equation.

Contrary to what many believe, the term 'soccer' was actually coined by the English themselves.

Actually I've been told by ASTRO themselves that the old decoder is better than the new one  hmm.gif Well that's what I was told anyway when I wanted to change mine.

Malaysia is good in mobile telecommunication.. Why? Because lots of competition everywhere. But internet? Astro? haih. I guess if only our internet connection is good, we will have IPTV then, no need to subscribe Astro anymore..

Isn't the new one the one that comes with recording and playback functions? Dad told me it cost a bomb, so didn't even think of switching.

No la, That one is Astro Max. The old decoder is black color looks and big. The new one is silver color and smaller.

What's the point of having a new one then ah? hmm.gif

Maybe the hardware and the firmware inside is better?

But for example, they said the old bulky PS2 is better than the slim one. Maybe because the slimmer device, their life span is short? unsure.gif
