Free Wireless@SG

Wow, saw this from SingTel website saying that they will be providing free internet services in Singapore at a speed of 512kbps for 3 years till 30 November 2009. The picture above is the wireless coverage area for Ang Mo Kio. Laptops, PDAs or WiFi enabled handsets can also use this service. By paying $9.90/month, you can surf at a double speed of 1Mbps. Currently SingNet home user are paying $29.95 for 512kbps(will u sell ur pc and buy a laptop, then everytime u want to surf net, u go to those hotspots? lol). In recent issues of "InfoTech", they were talking about "illegal tapping" into other user's unprotected home internet networks. Maybe this free internet service might help reduced such problems? Anyway, it doesnt affects me~ lol. For more Information visit:

Since this appears on the FAQ pdf file, I believe StarHub will also have this kinda of free internet service(but don't take my words for it, lol). One thing for sure StarHub is currently offering free broadband access to sites like MapleStory, Windows Live Messenger and Yahoo! and webmail services.

Opps! You still need to buy a cable modem from starhub, that means its not wireless. LMAO!

+861 Missed Calls

Hope everyone is aware of this thing so all of us don’t fall into paying expensive IDD for nothing. Number starting with +86 are calls from China, unless you are expecting a call from China, please do not return call. Such scamming method comes in form of missed calls or text messages(SMS). Making curious user to call back and end up having to pay a very high charge, as the call is redirected to a premium rate telephone service. Text messages would also tell you that you won big money and need to return a call asap. The victim ends up facing a hefty phone bill for the calls.
