Yes, the 2nd PC Fair of the is here this weekend at KLCC. Have you check out the deals and hot promotions and promoters yet? Nowadays a lot of ppl go there is not for cheap or good gadgets deals but just to check out the promoters or show girls? Am I right? haha =p
I went to PC Fair since few years back till now I think got 10 years d, every time there’s PC Fair I will sure go and have a visit no matter I have anything in mind to purchase or not. This year I would like to get the WD 1TB external HDD as my HDD gonna out of space coz took too much photo la! I want to get GPS (Papago / Garmin) too preferably with RMVB and AV-in support! But till now I still haven’t go and grab the gadgets and hoping the price keep dropping and with better specs… lol.
But for me, I still like PC Fair in PWTC better, because the KLCC PC Fair really badly manage for the past few times, all one way straight and if you decide to go out or halfway, you can’t! That’s the main problem, besides jam, crowded, expensive food, expensive car parking fees etc. What to do??
Want to buy cheap laptop or netbook? cheap pc? cheap pen drive/thumb drive, external hard disk (HDD), dvd-r, dvd-rw, cd-r, ram, Broadband like Streamyx, UNIFI, IZZI, Maxis 3G Broadband, Digi 3G Broadband, Celcom 3G Broadband, P1 W1MAX with wiggy, HWM Magazine, PC.com, pc accessories, mouse, keyboard, speaker, camera, DSLR, GPS, Projector, GPS, iPhone, BlackBerry, HTC… etc and a lot’s more.
This year I think there’s still Broadband war as the Potong campaign and new 3G Broadband in the market, Digi 3G Turbo etc… What I don’t like is they will keep shouting and line up and like blocking the road… arghhh… I have broadband d k… but still they will ask you to subscribe etc…!
Arghhh now subscribe to Digi Smart Plan is only RM28 but I subscribed it last 2 months with RM68… BlackBerry Bold 9700 only RM1199 and BlackBerry Curve 8520 RM459 only sigh… always there’s better deal. I’m still waiting for Apple iPhone4!

For those who’s going for KLCC PC Fair, please check the car park map. It’s very useful to plan your journey if not the best way is to take LRT but if you buying heavy and huge stuff better drive. Please car pool and safe the environment too! To avoid the jam, I suggest you to just take LRT straight go to KLCC station lo =)
Most importantly some ppl just go all the way there to check some of the tech updates but some go all the way there to see leng luis? ahah.
Or you looking for PC Fair job or part time as a promoter? You could easily earn up to RM100-200 per day, if you are female you could make a lot more if you become those model that holding laptop or etc.
Who will be there? This time I will not be going and will not post all the lengluis photo coz I have more important tasks waiting for me instead of this! haha…

Recently P1 W1MAX launched a series of Potong / Cut campaign to boost their sales and subscribers on the usage for P1 Wimax but a lot of mix reactions from different groups of ppl. Some older generation especially women very insulting and feel uncomfortable with the potong and the phrase they used in the ads. It’s very seductive and asking ppl to cut and making ppl think in a wrong perception. Now a lot of ppl is teasing each other by asking “Have you cut?” / “Sudah potong??”. Isn’t it very wrong? Will P1 in trouble, don’t think so as the advert run for a period of time without any distraction? Read more below on some of the complain in TheStar newspaper below. Btw Potong / Cut campaign ended on 31st Oct.
Potong Ads Part 1.
Potong Ads Part 2.
P1 CEO Michael Lai
Now our biggest broadband giant TMnet come out with another fight back campaign which telling ppl why cut? It’s like a war in broadband now. Streamyx advertise in major dailies by “a guy looks like Michael Lai (P1 W1MAX CEO)” carrying a modem with the notebook outside the window trying to search for signal. It’s clear to us that it’s a fight back and want to tell us (the consumer) that P1 signal could be not as strong as streamyx and need to walk around with your modem and notebook to look for the coverage! Haha. Good one TM! Again if you hear in Radio advertisement, there’s a mother scolding her son why cut? Cut liao so slow and “Cut your head la!” “切你的头” “Potong kepala kau”… haha. Trying to record the ads but can’t get the right time to record. Lol. I got will update again, till then.
Updates: Finally got the radio ads in Cantonese but have English version too!
P1 Tagline : Cut Already ? Cut the wires. Cut the charges. Cut the lag
Streamyx Tagline : If it’s not Streamyx, it’s not good enough
Who might be beneficial here? I would say the advertising company and the media who publish the ads. Am I right? =)
I could help you to come out with better idea and brainstorm perhaps? Call me. haha.
Groups want suggestive ad snipped
THE “Cut Already?” P1 WiMAX advertisement has created a furore among several quarters, especially women’s groups, for its suggestive connotation, reported Nanyang Siang Pau.
Kuala Lumpur-Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall Wanita chief Alice Lee urged the company to retract the advertisement because it made women feel uncomfortable.
“It was done in very bad taste and is filled with sexual innuendo,” she said.
Blogger Teo Bak Kim said he was surprised that the commercial was approved when the Government was well known to be strict in advertisement regulations.
“It is vulgar and its suggestive remarks set a trap for the audience to make the negative association,” he said.
Wanita MCA chief Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun said she would write to the company and demand that the advertisement be pulled out.
“The company should apologise because the advertisement is insulting and it discriminates against women,” she said.
She also urged advertisement producers to be more sensitive and to stop making disrespectful commercials.
Deputy Information, Communications and Culture Minister (II) Heng Seai Kie said the advertisement was rejected by RTM for not complying with its code of content.
“It is now only allowed to be broadcast on private television stations.
“However, I have directed the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission to study its content and see if it contains any sexual references or not,” she said.
Malaysia will be expected another WiMAX company coming out soon and it’s no longer dominated by P1, so please get to the right package and coverage and keep your promising words and good services in order to keep up in the competition. We as a user will have more option and ensure that we get the best out of the best.
Will be waiting for the good news. =)
YTL e-Solutions to sign deal with Samsung for peninsula-wide coverage
PETALING JAYA: After forging a partnership with Cisco late last year, YTL e-Solutions (YTLe) is set to ink yet another deal tomorrow with South Korea’s Samsung group to help it deploy WiMAX services in Peninsular Malaysia, according to sources familiar with the deal.
WiMAX, which stands for worldwide interoperability for microwave access, is a wireless digital communications system for wireless broadband access.
To build the WiMAX-based platfrom, YTLe will be investing about RM2.5bil for a nationwide roll-out, which will be funded by internally generated funds, one source said.
YTLe is listed on Mesdaq and is a subsidiary of YTL Corp Bhd.
The arrangement with Samsung will cover infrastructure build-up, especially radio network systems and the provision of hand-held devices for the services, the source added.
It is not clear how much the deal with Samsung is worth or whether the handsets will eventually be subsidised but YTLe is hoping to offer WiMAX-based voice, data and multimedia services in six to eight months’ time.
It is targeting a nationwide (peninsula) roll-out of WiMAX services in 14 months’ time, offering data download speeds of eight megabits per second (Mbps) and two Mbps for uplinks.
YTLe hopes to take the market by storm with its WiMAX service, offering a “one-pricing structure for its converged (voice, data and Multimedia services),” according to a source.
“Yes, YTLe has taken some time but it needed the time to study the maturity of the technology and it believes it is entering the market place at the right time,” the source said.
Most advanced
Samsung is known to have created one of the most advanced portable WiMAX gadgets globally.
Last month Samsung launched its SWD-M100 Mondi mobile WiMAX device in the United States.
Mondi has touch screen capabilities and can be used to access the Internet.
Whether this model will make its way into Malaysia is unclear but YTLe is hoping that the partnership with Samsung will enable it to provide a total package comprising devices and services.
“It is important to give Malaysians a new experience in mobility and YTLe is looking at offering converged services,’’ the source said.
In December, YTLe formalised an agreement with Cisco Services Malaysia for the deployment of WiMAX.
Cisco will build and integrate YTLe’s WiMAX core network which includes the IP core and operating support systems, among others.
The arrangement with Samsung will sort out its radio network systems and devices.
A late entrant it may be, but YTLe has finally got the partners it needed to help with its WiMAX rollout, including US-based Clearwire as its technology partner.
YTLe is one of four Malaysian companies awarded the 2.3GHz spectrum in 2007, which allows them to offer wireless broadband services using the WiMAX technology
The other three are Packet One Networks (M) Sdn Bhd, REDtone International Bhd and Asiaspace Sdn Bhd.
WiMAX is not widely available globally but a handful of American cities have deployed it.
In Malaysia, the Government awarded the spectrum so that operators can offer services that will lead to higher broadband penetration rates in the country.
