Rhonda SG Erm... Nope! But I'm going to really soon so by the time the Broadband is ready, the PC would have been delivered! Don't forget, things don't happen as fast here as they do in Singapore.
Rhonda SG Woweee!!! CONGRATULATIONS, Choco!!! Well done!!! Our very first Club 30 baby!!! When is the expected date of delivery?
Rhonda SG Ah well, that's what they claim, 7-10 working days. I'm giving them allowance because I've been in Australia long enough to know not to take promised deadlines seriously!
the Bear SG btw.. your broadband.. what is it like? how much data do they limit you to before they drop you back to 56k?
Rhonda SG Optus explains that they are in the midst of taking over the Richmond territory from Telstra so in the meantime, the Broadband in my area is only 56k. About three months later, after the official takeover and whatever technical works has been completed for my area, Broadband will go up to 20,000k. I've been a Beggar for soooooo long, I'm not going to be a Chooser because you know what they say about Beggars and Choosers! Soooo happpyyyyyy!!!
Rhonda SG Oh gosh... that's like a symbol of my teenage-hood or sumthin'! Makes me feel darn old now... Am I considered 'Retro' now? Is that short for "Retrograde"?
Rhonda SG Must be 516 then. Or sumthin'. It's 'DSL' and he says that's the other name for Broadband. Anyways, there's no other option now until they takeover territory from Telstra.
the Bear SG DSL.. probably 512k oh.. check your contract again... just how much data they let you throughput before it drops to 56k if it's like 2GB, you'll see that you're almost on 56k all the time...
Rhonda SG Darnit... it's sizzling hot out there!! My skin feels like it's trying to shrivel up from the dry heat already! Alright, gotta go! Will keep glancing fondly at my online order! HOpe there'll be no horrible hiccups in the meantime!
the Bear SG *ahem!* Data usage will be counted in Megabytes (MB) and includes both uploads and downloads. If you exceed your monthly data allowance, access will be speed limited to 64 or 128kbps depending on your plan until the end of the billing month. btw.. i can clock up to about 1GB of data throughput in ONE NIGHT..
