Friday 4 March 2011 @ 3:55 pm

A few days ago I wrote the top 5 things I do MORE of … now that I have the Maxis WiFi Modem, so today I’ll share what are the top 5 things I do LESS of … now that I have the Maxis WiFi Modem.

1. Buy less newspaper and magazine

With Apple iPad and Maxis WiFi Modem, I’m able to download the latest copy of some local newspaper as well as popular magazines, such as National Geographic, then read it whenever and wherever I’m free. Therefore, I’m buying less newspaper and magazine now. By having all digital copies of newspaper, magazine and even books downloaded into the iPad, hopefully the scene below will not be seen again. :)

Books, magazines, novels, newspapers.

Apple iPad (or iPad 2) & Maxis WiFi Modem Are Your Perfect Travel Mates

Friday 4 March 2011 @ 1:15 pm

I came to Kuala Lumpur from Penang for the Nokia E7 Premier Preview yesterday and will be staying here for a few days. What I brought with me are some clothes, Apple iPad and Maxis WiFi Modem. That’s all I need for this short trip because the 2 devices really are my best travel mates.

Maxis WiFi Modem can only be charged via USB port.

Some users of Maxis WiFi Modem complain that it’s quite inconvenient to use the modem while traveling because it can only be charged via USB port so we still need a PC or laptop. Well, that’s just partially true.

Maxis Wireless Broadband Speed Tests In Penang, Malaysia

Thursday 3 March 2011 @ 2:27 pm

Last Monday I spent almost the whole day testing the speed of Maxis Wireless Broadband at more than 40 locations throughout the whole island of Penang, Malaysia. I wanted to find out what’s the speed of Maxis Wireless Broadband because I’ll be using it when I’m out of the home or office.

Maxis claimed that they have the widest network coverage so I purposely went up the hill, to the seaside, highways and even some shopping malls. Besides, Penang is famous for its tourist attractions therefore I chose to test the speed at these locations. Below is the Google Maps I created showing all the places and speeds I recorded :-

The top 5 things I do MORE of … now that I have the Maxis WiFi Modem

Tuesday 1 March 2011 @ 1:31 am

I’ve been using the Maxis WiFi Modem for the past 1 week and it’s quite fair to say that it really changed some of the ways I do my daily routine. Below are the top 5 things I do MORE after getting the modem :-

1. Read more while I’m dining out or on the go.

Usually I only read newspaper or magazine at home because I hate bringing the dirty newspaper or the heavy magazine around. Besides, most of the time I can’t find a proper place to put the newspaper or magazine after reading it.

Maxis WiFi Modem turns 3G data connection into WiFi signal and it’s perfect for me because I’m currently relying only on WiFi connection for the iPad. Therefore, after getting the Maxis WiFi Modem, it’s so convenient for me to read on the iPad whenever I feel like reading. Well, it’s undeniable to say that Apple iPad is the best tablet for reading so I’m kind of addicted to it now. :)

Apple iPad + Maxis Wireless Broadband = Save RM170 Instantly!

Friday 25 February 2011 @ 7:57 pm

Update (19/3/11) : After the iPad 2 was announced, the price of iPad is now dropped to RM1,199 (16GB WiFi) and RM1,599 (16GB WiFi+3G) but you can still enjoy the saving using the method below. The saving will be RM120 (RM1,599-RM1,199-RM280). :)

Yesterday I wrote a post about a Maxis Wireless Broadband special promotion for Maxis existing customer, which can save you RM20 a month.

Now I want to share with you a way to save RM170 instantly if you are getting an Apple iPad and looking for a data package. This is not a trick or using any special coupon, it’s just getting the right combination of the product and service. :)

As we all know, Apple iPad is available in 2 versions : WiFi or WiFi+3G.
The 16GB models are selling at RM1,549 and RM1,999 respectively, that’s a RM450 difference in price.

Apple iPad WiFi & WiFi+3G Price Difference

The main difference between the 2 versions is that the WiFi+3G version has 3G wireless capability which allows you to connect to any 3G data network just like how your mobile phone is working. Whereas the WiFi version only allows you to connect to WiFi network, which means the mobility is quite limited.
