 | Sucks Man those deals suck. For the price of the modem and then the service. I would still choose what I have now of that......thing, service what ever it is Seems like Japan still has the best deal going over Singapore. |

 | Come on, man....use you're brain. I am an American who used to live in Singapore for a few years. They are generally doing a great job with broadband policy and implementation there, helped in a big way by the fact that, yes, it is a very small city-state and density is very high. Similar to most large American cities, in my opinion.
What nobody in here has figured out is that those rates posted are in SINGAPOREAN Dollars (SGD), not AMERICAN Dollars (USD).
Duh.
So...allow me to roughly translate for an apples to apples comparison:
(all speeds not guaranteed - meaning UP TO)
1Mb/256kbs = $29.96 SGD = $20.78 USD 8Mb/256kbs = $59.92 SGD = $41.57 USD 12Mb/384kbs = $81.32 SGD = $56.40 USD 100Mbs/2Mbs = $124.12 SGD = $86.10 USD
So NOW make your informed comparisons. |

Duh. Uh, see my post currently 2 down from yours? See the time on your post compared to mine? Clearly some us had "figured" it out already.  |

For those prices and the low upload, I'd much rather have my FIOS 20mbps/5mbps.... -- Hello Verizon FIOS 12.03.07! 457,000,000 miles of fiber optics placed and counting! ~THANK YOU MY ANONYMOUS FRIEND~ |

Re: Come on, man....use you're brain. Yes, I still see it has Japan has a better deal going. I think even we have better deals in some cases. |
