Rumor again about the next iPhone

Recently all Apple fans have been busily seeking sources to get more information about next iPhone as the past generations of iPhone were released in Q3 which is only few months left.

However,Apple is very good at keeping mouths shut and it seems that we could only guess by ourselves or listen to some rumors.The hottest rumor is quite similar as what I talked weeks ago that the next iPhone is ‘iPhone4s’ which is the minor upgrade version of iPhone 4.

Of course,it should be better than the current one,so a faster processor will be applied-the best guess is using A5 which is also using on current iPad2.Also,Apple will upgrade the camera in order to provide better shooting quality.Previously,I heard that iPhone4s could support 4G connection such as Wimax or LTE.However,I read some articles showing that currently all Wimax/LTE chips are not good at power savings and that definitely will lower the battery hours.So iPhone4s perhaps supports HSPA+ that could reach 42Mbps peak as the result of balancing between battery hour and speed.

AppleInsider has their own analysis about next iPhone,I think some points are the same as what I thought.Well,all will only be approved when the next iPhone is officially introduced.Stay tuned! :)

YES is not so nice

YES had launched for 2 days,however,till now there are still quite a number of users complaining that they can login to the website.And the official website was down in the first 20 hours because of DDOS attack by the 3rd party.I think as a company which provides Internet service,it should have enough ability to deal with this kind of issues quickly.

Well,for me,I don’t even feel good on the price.After 4GB usage monthly,it will offer 30% rebate on the original price 3 cent/MB.If we use more than 7 GB monthly,it’s over RM140 already.With that price,we could enjoy Streamyx 4Mbps unlimited access.You may ask that YES claimed to have 3-5 times speed than current local 3G providers,so is that really faster?No,according to the testing report from some users,it’s around 3-5Mbps in most areas.

I don’t think YES is priced at a right position.I’m wondering that who want to get such a low cost-effective product.YES,you should know the market first and push the product out later.Otherwise,you will lost the business soon.

It’s not just about the word,it’s about the new service.YES is the brand of a new Wimax service in Malaysia provided by YTL,a well-known local company.

The service is said to be 3-5 times faster than all local 3G data services and it’s no commitment for any agreement-Pay as You use.Also,I heard that YES will not only for Wimax data service,it will add voice service,TV service and others soon.

Yesterday,someone leaked a picture for its price structure.Well,it seems not to be so attractive.

Today,the devices are introduced.Some are fitting for mobile use,some are fitting for home and office use.

After 24 hours,all will be disclosed in the launch event.I’m wondering what YES could make itself be more attractive.

Stay tuned!

PS:In Malaysia,all Wimax service providers call their services as 4G.However,according to the international standard,it can’t be.In fact,the standards of 4G are still editing. Smile

P1 Wimax reveals a new plan

P1 Wimax started to introduce a new and cheaper plan-Wiggy 69 several days ago.

P1 Wiggy 69 The speed is capped at 800Kbps applicable to 5GB of fair usage threshold.I think this plan is only for the people who just use the broadband service to check emails and surf internet only because if playing streaming and downloading,it could reach the limitation on volume in one day.

Why are those wireless broadband service providers always set the price that high?It’s really not reasonable.

P1 Wimax,just good luck!

P1 expands to Ipoh and Kuala Terengganu

P1 Wimax expanded its coverage to Ipoh and Kuala Terengganu in last June.

P1 new coverageP1 has an objective to cover 90% population by the end of 2010.Thus,it now start to step into those small and medium size of cities in order to achieve that target.The latest news said that P1 may start to cover West Malaysia from next year too.

P1 provides a lot of packages to fit different users.However,I think the prices are still too high for me and the performance is not yet stable enough.

I think P1 still has a long way to go-while expanding the coverage,P1 must enhance the existing network to give more satisfactions to current users.

I hope P1 could do the things right!
