Travelfusion I don't know what dates your planning but 15th-29th December from £714 http://www.travelfusion.com/?f=LHR&ot=...ht=jbhjRWuWMqLc Don't know if this link will work.

There are plenty of offers. Go to AA Brokers by Big C Sukhumvit I've heard good stories from them. It's something I need to get sorted although we get some cover as my wife works for Pattaya Memorial.

Yes I had the Omnia 1 how did you guess lol I can take pics in the bars okay without a flash. I took some Video of the fireworks on the Beach just after I bought it and it was crystal clear. It is true HD video recording as they say. Pics are crystal clear even though the camera is 5MP the same as the Omnia it takes much better pics. I have downloaded Flashplayer too and can now view almost any Webpage flawlessly, just need 3G here to take full advantage.

I'm glad I watched Pattaya instead even though that was 2-2 as well.

Of course everyone has to make money. I have tried all methods and I find I get the best rate with Smart Currencies especially when I play them against WWC they will compete for the business. I usually transfer between £5-10K at a time.

We have an internet cable coming straight from the phone mast into the house. Maxnet can do it too but my experience with them says keep well away. More than happy with True I have the 8 Meg Premium offering at about 1,200 Baht a month.

Certainly no complaints on my battery life. Mind you I did have an Omnia before and the battery on that was non existent. Always had to carry one or 2 spares with me.

All UK banks make a charge for International transfers. Also you don't necessarily get the best rate. I always use Currency Exchange Companies. I do a free Bacs payment online from my Natwest account to either www.worldwidecurrencies.com (They have a £500 minimum but no fees) www.smartcurrencies.com (Over £3,000 free under is £20 charge) If I transfer over £3,000 I usually find Smart give a little better than WWC. It's in my Thai account between 3-5 working days after it leaves my English account and I get a better rate than Natwest offer me.

Change your internet to True and dispence of the phone line altogether.

I've done all sorts over the years. Whatever has been needed I've never relied on the state have always worked but mainly for myself.

Twas a good party Mrs Englishinsiam and I had a great time as did everyone else there. Pics will be posted later on Adams diet was helped immensly by everyone last night. He even felt the need to wear his Anorexia t shirt.

Sounds about right Todays auction has been called off as expected. The courts have said they will give a decision on Thursday on the Auction situation. One of the experts on BBC news said it will probably be 4-6 months before the auctions take place. Stuck in the dark ages

Works for me in Firefox This could be a good site I'll add it to my favourites thanks Andy

I presume your asking if I'm selling. Yes and no My main business is as a forex trader but I am in partnership with a couple of board mambers here in different businesses that aren't off the ground yet. They will be selling roles.

haha I sounded like a See Daeng for a moment but I definately am not. But the problem is there for all to see. The simple solution is let Cat and Tot have a free licence to operate with 3G and give them a portion of the licence fee from their competitors.

If you are Raj make yourself known to me and we'll have a beer failing that see you Weds for the crawl.

Same here apart from 1 banner above the bar nothing else to note a party. We had one drink then left. Poor show IMO !! Some very sexy girls though we'll be back another night when it's not so busy.

This is the problem when the state owns part or all of a telecoms supplier. BT were the same but luckily they are now forced to compete with more streamlined companies. Although the other companies still have to use BT's end pipes from the local exchanges so BT will always get guaranteed revenue on Landline traffic. The sad thing about Thailand is the backward thinking and protection of their elite is always going to drag them down. I mean in the modern world a so called emerging economic giant not having 3G. Thailand are the laughing stock of the Modern world. Bumbling along like Buffaloes is quite sad.

I'm sure we will we are going after poking our heads round the door at Villas party in Drunken Duck.

Depends when the backhanders are all agreed. Some people in govt will get very rich from this deal. I think the Auctions will go ahead early next year. Then it'll take another 6-8 months to get it all up and running. We will not see 3G openly in Pattaya for 12 months. Of that I am very sure. There is actually no 3G in Thailand as they legally can't sell it over the 'mobile' network legally. I think it's designated to buildings in BKK and thats it. Same as trues 50 Meg Broadband it's only in certain condo/office blocks in BKK

Looks cool Maybe we set up a Crawl Folder with the password only in the members area.

good price for so far in advance.

I downloaded Froyo for mine even though it's not released here yet. No major imporvements I can see of. I have Amaze.com GPS now simply brilliant covers the whole of Thailand with Voice.

Great pics Adam it was a good night as always and we'll be there Sunday as promised. 4 nights out in a row I will be a mess by Sunday.

There will be no 3G in Thailand for the next 12 months as I've always said. The govt have fucked this up the same way they fuck everything else up. Maybe those of us that bought 3G phones here should sue the govt as a collective.
