Hi one and all....

 

it's in the news.....

 

and here are the plans by M1....

anyone's gonna get it???

[Mustank]

sometimes it is not the speed of your connection, it is the speed of the server providing the data......if it is a popular server, things will also be slow

[Ferraricalifornia]

the download speed also matters what....

 

it determines if you link up with the server with priority or not....

 

haha....

[Ferraricalifornia]

the prices and plans sure are attractive....

 

25mbps@$39/mth,

 

50mbps@$49/mth,

 

100mbps@$59/mth.....

 

1Gbps@$399/mth....

 

haha....

Everyone please queue up at the int'l gateway.............please line up.

 

100Mbps and 10Mbps, actually may not be much different when accessing int'l sites.

Do you really need such a BIG pipe in the 1st place?

[Ferraricalifornia]

what you mean by big pipe???

[Ferraricalifornia]

but just imagine the download speeds man....

 

mine is only 3mbps nia....

[Coder]

at home using 2Mbps Singnet , <$20/month. (lowest plan fr singnet). last time, got starhub 6 Mbps. no different in downloading big files. but commercial 512Kbps is faster then my home one.

[Ferraricalifornia]

i used to be 1mbps,

 

upgrade to 3mbps....

 

paying $30/mth....

 

comes with mobile internet (1.5mbps) as well....

[Tjkbeluga]

Go get a 50 mbps and with a good router that has QoS capability, sub-lease it to your neighbour at 10 bucks per 5 mbps... Hehehe

[Ferraricalifornia]

Lol....

 

sign 24months contract too....

 

haha....

[Blackyv]

i dont think i will bite........... im still on ST 1Mb mobile BB which cost ~$12+/mth and it works fine for me and sufficient for my usage....... those extra ~$20 buck can go into buying some medical insurance coverage for my son....

[Ferraricalifornia]

lol....

 

true true....

 

i'm quite impressed with the ST Mobile BB too....

 

haha....

[Garlic]

what you mean by big pipe???

 

 

Channel capacity.

 

[Coupecabriolet]

i have 2 internet plans at home that have matured, one M1 (10mbps), another starhub (8 or 10 or 12mpbs, whichever). M1 offer of $59 for 100mbps is quite decent.

 

for 2nd broadband, i'll see whether starhub or singtel offer better promotions during COMEX

[Ferraricalifornia]

so far,

 

M1 has the cheapest plan leah....

[Coupecabriolet]

yeah but they keyword is freebies when it comes to COMEX or PCshow or similar.. lol.

 

starhub having the promotion for xbox360.. but for higher end plans only, not worth. and i already have the console at home.
