After a download frenzy in the last few days of March, I got a message saying that I've reached my 5GB limit for my Celcom Broadband. Now I realized that it come with a limit -> 5GB :(... peanut I think ... If you download videos from the net, it could easily reach 500Mb.
I searched the net and found a lot of user commenting on this tiny limit. I also found that if user reached that limit, then the conection will be 'managed'.. i.e your speed will go down to something like 166kb/s ..... so slow :(
Very recently, I saw a lot of banners near the Queensbay area advertising for P1 Wimax... finally it arrives here. Unfortunately, my area in Sungai Dua, Gelugor is not yet covered. I wish it will be here soon and I voted for it on the PI Wimax website :)
The package seems quite good but it comes with 12 or 24 months contract and you have to pay for the modem (RM199) if you choose the 12 months contract.
What pique my interest was the package that they offer. For RM99, the fair usage policy is 20GB .. but it is limited to 1.2Mbps.. i wish it is 3.6Mbps .... anyway, comparing with the 5GB that my RM98/month Celcom broadband offered.. that seems a lot. But then, on the other side, the coverage is very limited. Maybe in one or two years time it will cover the east and west coast also.
I heard that Celcom also offered unlimited broadband with their wireless gateway package - this one cost RM299. Well.. out of my budget at the moment. Hopefully Digi Broadband will come to Penang also as I heard one of their Explore package at RM108/month offer usage policy of 10GB.
The more player the better for us customer
