I have it working on my laptop using xbmc and can access it through the website too. Need to use email address as user name and password in settings in Xbmc but no hacks required.

Martin if you want regular US tv channels sign up for https://www.ustvnow.com/ standard definition is free for regular channels. However it was greatly overloaded by the super bowl traffic and was not worth watching in thailand. Once you sign up ustvnow should be one of the video add-ins in XBMC so all you need to do is to enter your email and password and you can watch it on your box.

According to the attached article it is safe to drink as long as you live between Pattaya Tai and Pattaya Nua all the way up to Sukhumvit. I have only once knowingly drank coffee made from tap water. Even though I boiled it for the requisite 20 mins I still got sick as a dog for three or four days. I was outside of the safe area though. Have always used the RO Machines when i lived in a condo and never got sick. Check the status lights on the machine before using them. Avoid using the machine if no lights are showing green, probably bypassed. Now i live in a house I use Amtech 18.9 litre bottles 45 baht delivered. They are too heavy to carry around but still cheap at about 3baht per litre. I clean my teeth in tap water without any ill effects so maybe i now have the required immunization for the water germs but not worth the risk IMHO. http://www.pattayamail.com/444/news.shtml#hd1

It was taken down same time as pirate bay it is back up at https://eztv-proxy.net/

Generally I use kickass because of their bookmarking feature too. The best search engine if you want the most results is https://torrentz.eu. Popcorn time is great for watching movies on line http://popcorn-time.se/

The scooter shop is now a 7-11.

They take your picture at test center so he could only hire his twin brother if he wants the license to look like him.

75000 baht a sq m is a decent deal? Yes for Northshore maybe.

Just came across this

There was another disco on the ground floor of the Marine Plaza hotel. Mainly frequented by Arabs. Only ever been once or twice when JP Bar was closed by the police.

I have XBMC set up on an old laptop that i wouldn't use for travelling. Plenty of tutorials on you tube about how to set up. I use a wireless mouse and keyboard setup. Last time i checked i had 346 live channels. Found that I don't watch it that much because of time difference problems. I used it on Sundays night to watch sky sports 1 football. Three different channels were buffering a lot before i found one that was OK to watch. As MM said the convenience and form factor of an android box are a no brainer for people who don't want to carry a laptop, mouse etc. BTW XBMC is being renamed Kodi.

Snus are tobacco pouches not food btw.

So you have to buy a subscription and pay 1000 baht every 200 days to have access to those channels. The website http://www.truemoney.co.th/cashcard.html seems to be only for wifi.

Martin if you use the BB exchange rate you have to check the time of the transfer and use the rate for that time as it is updated three or four times per day. It may not make much difference but if could makes the cents round up or down incorrectly. I have the same problem with OTP and still have not managed it, i tried at a branch and they couldn't even understand what a OTP was. I will try at that branch.

You have to do that when you clear customs on way back anyway.

Open Office is fine for working offline, but if your computer always has internet connection the google docs is better as it will alllow collaboration on any document and you can access them on any computer. Only problem with open office and Google docs is that macros don't work the same as excel.

It was an ACH transfer BKK New York charges as follows The fee for depositing the baht in your bank here is 0.25% up to 500 Baht (min 200 baht)

Open a google voice account and use that number can check on computer any texts, alternative get a magic jack or a Skype phone no.

The only bank that permits ACH transfer from USA is Bangkok Bank. All others rely on telegrahic transfers which could cost you $30-$40 for each transfer. ACH costs Local fee here 0.3% of amount, Min 200 baht max 500baht

+1 you have do your 90 day reporting on dec 6th independently of whatever visa you have now.

Small point, price is actually 399 baht per person. Love to eat there, great food. if you want a table between 8 and 9pm then a booking is a good idea.

5555 at least they are consistently wrong.

It was however would expect there to be more of a need for the med cert if it has been five years since the last one. By the way the advice I took was from thai visa. Even it it was right it was quicker to go get a med cert than arguing with a thai.

I believed people and went without a med certificate to the DL center , was sent away to get one. For 100baht cost get one and save the hassle. Take a photocopy of the old license too.

One day of overstay is always free at the airport, but you pay for it if more than one day overstay.
