DiGi Broadband + Newest Family: BumbleTock

Hooray for DiGi! Just last week I twitted that I was too busy to meet up with an agent to get the new DiGi promotion at RM58/month, RM15/month for the modem (unlocked, unlike other telcos) and RM5 off via credit card payment, and the next thing they do is to send a super efficient and friendly rep (no, it's not the DiGi Man!) to come meet me at the office and within 1+ hour, there it was: 3G Turbo speed mobile internet with a likely download speed of 700kbps and upload of 200kbps.

And that's just RM68/month for 1 year for mobile internet! Of course the speed and all is

yet to be determined, time for some Speedtest.net fun >:-)

The best part about it is that it goes perfectly well with BumbleTock, which used to be my sister's. Now it's mine >:-D

Plug and play!

Lemme introduce BumbleTock. It's approximately 2/3rd of my current laptop's size!

All should go well, except that I installed the awesome Ubuntu Remix for Netbook here, so it's not really functioning out-of-the-box. If I had Windows 7 configured to this computer then it’s a different ball game altogether 😉

However I was impressed that the Ubuntu remix had an option to choose DiGi! Now all I need is the APN code. Can someone please provide me with it?

Otherwise all is swell. I think I'm falling in love with my Sony Viao Atombook + BumbleTock + DiGi Broadband MIX 😀

Should I submit this to the competition that DiGi is having here? Well I certainly met the condition >>

If you've activated your Broadband Done Right modem from 1 November to 6 December 2009 , then we wanna hear you. Show us your best Internet Done Right experience in a picture and we'll give you a new HP Mini with Windows 7 pre-installed. HP Mini will be given out daily till 6 December 2009.

Maybe I'll give it a shot then, cause there's always room for another netbook! 😀
