WiMAX

WOW! While people not yet fully known of existence of 3G, moreover on 3.5G nor 3.75G thou, on last 20^th aug’08, Malaysia already welcomed 4G aka WiMAX, after nearly 18 months (by that time) Malaysia joined the WiMAX club. PacketOne, a company under Green Packet launched P1 WiMAX broadband sevice, started as fixed wireless service aimed at our low broadband penetration rate. This new P1 W1MAX broadband service is the first Wimax service to go live in Malaysia after the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) issued four 2.3 GHz Wimax licenses on March 2007. So, now P1 is offering two Wimax packages, a 1.2-Mbps service priced at RM99 and RM229 for a 2.4-Mbps service, respectively, for a one-year contract (during the welcoming time, but the price is cheaper and the speed is higher -up to 3.6-Mbps already nowadays- perhaps you can look for 'Wiigii' (I mean Wiggy here...)too!

So, before you try it, please take note on where WiMAX is available. As started time, coverage will initially be available in KLCC, Golden Triangle, Pekeliling, Setapak, Gombak, Seri Rampai, Sentul, Pudu, selected areas in Subang Jaya, USJ 1, USJ 7 and Subang Hi-Tech area. By end of the year 2008 it already cover 25% as it expands to Petaling Jaya, Damansara, Klang and Port Klang and others within the Klang Valley, as well as Johor Bahru, Kedah, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Melaka and all major towns and cities in the West Coast of Peninsula Malaysia, followed by the east coast of Peninsula Malaysia covered this year, and East Malaysia will have service by 2010 at the latest.

p/s hope my shared info above can satisfied all of you yang bertanya =) Walla!
