Wii U Pro Controller

pltan — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 14:18:37 +0800

So I was gifted a Wii U console a few days ago, came with New Super Mario Bros Wii U.

Love the Gamepad controller concept and execution, but wow that battery life. Ok, so tried playing with the Wii remote nunchuck thing, playable but using the shake to simulate RZ is inconsistent for me. Hmmm what do I do? I'll go see if there is a third party controller or something I can buy, oh great!

There's a Wii U Pro controller! Order one from my favourite seller here, and it arrives in the mail.

Turn on NSMB .....WTF?!?!?! You CAN'T use the Wii U Pro for the game?!?!?! #Nerdrage!!!

Like seriously Nintendo, what's going on?

AVR Upgrade

pltan — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 12:43:22 +0800

Hello,

I am running the following for my home theatre setup and I was hoping some of you might be able to offer some suggestions for an AVR upgrade.

Marantz SR5005
Emotiva XPA-5
Goldenear's Triton Two speakers, Supersat 50c(soon to be 60c), Aon3 Surrounds and a Force Field 4 sub.
65" Panasonic plasma, WDTV live hub, PS3, Panasonic Blu ray player

I've been suggested to just move up the Marantz chain in another forum ...

I quote "The more current Marantz models (SR5007, SR6007, SR7007, AV7701, all 7 channels) from last year all use the higher version of Audyssey MultEQ XT while the AV8801 (11.2) uses the most advanced version of Audyssey MultEQ XT32. Any of the models would be an upgrade in audio quality, so determine what other features/input/output requirements you need and select the model that best meets those requirements as well as your budget."

Would really appreciate any other thoughts and suggestions any of you might have.

Thanks

Need some help advice from Fibre optics users

pltan — Mon, 25 Jun 2012 17:05:24 +0800

Basically I'm moving apartments and been a current user of Unifi's VIP 20 package.

The condo I am using to has optics coverage, but according to TM the 'port' is full and as such I can't sign up for Unifi there. I checked with Maxis, and they said the same thing about their fibre optic coverage, so I assume both services use the same port.

Where is this port located? It's in a network room in the building etc?

How hard is it to add more 'ports'? For more lines?

How long does it take for them to expand port capacity?

Please help...

Buying Direct from Emotiva

pltan — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 11:39:40 +0800

Hi everyone,

I've noticed some people in the past have had bulk orders and such from Emotiva. I'm considering ordering a XPA-5.

Does anyone know if I will definitely have to pay taxes at Malaysia customs? And if so what's the %?

Thank you.

B&W MM-1

pltan — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 14:06:35 +0800

Hi,

I am looking for someone to buy a pair of MM-1 with me. After speaking to Jaya One's store, I was told that

The regular retail price for one is 2200 RM$
Discounted single price is 2100$

However if we buy two pairs, there will be a special 15% discount off the 2200 price, leaving the final price per set to be 1870$

They do not have the speakers in stock, but delivery will take about 30 days.

If anyone is interested in purchasing with me, please send me a pm and we can work out the details.

Current 9700 user looking to upgrade to a Torch

pltan — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 19:49:38 +0800

I'm currently a 9700 user, looking to upgrade to a Torch, can anyone give me advice for trade in values and where to get a new 9800? Digi does not have an upgrade plan sadly.

How much can I expect to get for my current phone? Are there shops that do a trade-in for the 9800? Or is my best bet to sell it like on lowyat and just buy a new one from Digi?

Blackberry Data plans

pltan — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 15:28:31 +0800

So I've been looking around for a nice blackberry service provider here in Malaysia, and I've been shocked with the pricing plans.

Does anyone know when these plans will get revised?

For example.

Maxis is offering something like 10mb of data per month for 50 RM/month.

In Singapore 20SGD gets you 3 GB of data per month.

LOL?

Which are the best blackberry plans in Malaysia currently>?

Megashares Query

pltan — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:18:41 +0800

It seems Rapidshare has come back to normal.

But I seem to be getting extremely slow speeds on megashares ~ 20KB/sec on a 4mbps line, which is incredibly slow.

Using vpns or proxies doesnt help either.

Any of you experiencing issues or normal activity with Megashares?
