Reason for sale:Upgrade

hi, looking to sell my Philips HTS 8100 Soundbar. i bought it in Feb or March 2008, for around 2.9k. looking to sell it at 1.8k. still under warranty by Philips, 1yr warranty. Wall mounted, so its in excellent condition.

if you're looking for an all-in-one system, with no wires over the place, but has virtual surround sound, then this are the reasons i got this. it also upscales dvd's to 1080p, and it does make a difference to movies.

sound wise, no complaints. although the bass is very strong, so i have to set it at minimum as the neighbours have complained.

Reason for sale is upgrade.

some links to review on the system. give me a call if interested 012 2010 712

hi ps3 gurus....

just wanna ask whats the current price for a PS3 60GB set now?

i'm in japan right now, just walked into takashimaya dept store and saw 60GB PS3 going for rm2k. just wondering whats the price diff with mallaysia for a Japan PS3?

how about warranty? how long from shops in KL? and oh yeah, the warranty given by the shops in KL is just from the local shop? not officialy from sony right? i wonder if sony malaysia will cover warranty if i buy from japan.

and sorry for the noob question, but are the games still region locked like PS2? meaning i cant play US/EU games on the Japan PS3? or its region free now??

thanks for the help guys.

and oh ya, if anyone wants any new games direct from japan, i can buy them here. but not too many ya, incase i get caught at customs. but only problem is i wont buy unless u bank the money in my account first, which most ppl wont anyways. oh well

PCMCIA 3G cards

g-string — Mon, 18 Dec 2006 21:32:58 +0800

hi guys,

not sure if it's right to post this here.

I'm using a Dell laptop, that comes with the PC Express slot. problem is that i have a PCMCIA 3G card. so cannot fit.

i've checked online, and they sell adapters which i can plug the PCMCIA card into an adapter, and connect via USB. but its damn EXPENSIVE!!! almost rm1000.

anyone managed to find a way to use PCMCIA cards on laptops with PC Express slots?

help pls, the 3G card is just sitting there and looking at me everyday. i can hear it say, "use me...use me..."
