Free rear seatbelts from Perodua

llamasonic — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 09:47:00 +0800

Contact Perodua and ask when we can expect rear seatbelts to be fitted for cars that have anchor points for the rear belts but did not come with them.

http://www.perodua.com.my/index.php?section=contact

The more people that send a message expecting the belts for free the faster Perodua will have to act.

I was in their service center this week and noticed many "We care" signs up. Ask them if they care why don't they show good faith by providing a basic safety feature that should have come stock? The Kelisas sold in UK all have not only rear seatbelts but airbags.

Is a UK citizen's life more valuable to Perodua than a Malaysian's ? That's what this comes down to. The belts don't cost them much. Ask that they show leadership by not waiting for the government to tell them what to do - tell them to do what they know is the right thing to do.

Mention how they decide on this will affect your future car buying decisions. Do they wish to build customer loyalty or screw customers by charging almost 400 RM for a feature that should have been there in the 1st place !

They read these messages and will respond quickly. The only way management will move on this is if in their next meeting someone says, "Customers are demanding to know if we are going to put rear belts in their cars".

Takes you 3 minutes and could save lives.

I'm going to go ahead and put the belts and pay for it, but I want Perodua to do right and not save a few dollars at the expense of many lives.

Please copy / repost this on other message boards and blogs

ISP sued for bittorrent blocking!

llamasonic — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 09:39:42 +0800

Comcast Sued Over BitTorrent Blocking

A California man filed suit in state court Tuesday against internet service provider Comcast, arguing that the company's secret use of technology to limit peer-to-peer applications such as BitTorrent violates federal computer fraud laws, their user contracts and anti-fraudulent advertising statutes.

Plaintiff Jon Hart, represented by the Lexington Law Group, argues that Comcast's promises of providing internet connections that let users "Download at Crazy Fast Speeds" are false and misleading since Comcast limits downloads by transmitting "unauthorized hidden messages to the computers of customers" who use peer-to-peer file sharing software. Hart wants the court to force Comcast to stop interfering with the traffic.

He also wants the court to certify the suit as a class action and force Comcast to pay damages to himself and all other Comcast internet subscribers in California

The suit (pdf), which also claims the BitTorrent blocking is an unfair business practice, was filed in California Superior Court in Alameda County.

best backpack for 13" macbook

llamasonic — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 17:37:47 +0800

I've been doing some research and I need to find a decent backpack that snugly fits a 13" mb. I'd also like room for a powershot S3 and a cell phone / chargers / adapters / snacks

One of the better products I have located so far is actually from Lenevo (manufactured by Targus) for RM 179

http://www5.pc.ibm.com/my/products.nsf/�...urcesite=lenovo

Crumplers look good but too expensive - Belkin sling looks nice but not enough room for my camera. I'm a casual business person and don't want something that looks like I'm on the way to a rave, nor do I want a briefcase..

What are you using for you macbook? How much and where to get it?

[addedon]November 14, 2007, 2:18 pm[/addedon]I ended up buying 2 crumpler bags from US, just arrived. Going to keep the King Single backpack, really nice and a ton of room. I like that it can't be opened when it's being worn. The messenger bag, though very nice also, is being sold off. The backpack just feels more casual to me.

llamasonic — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 21:20:30 +0800
