broadband

in this regard, i am indubitably a laggard..

thus far, i have been relying on StarHub's Surf-for-Free Internet Service and of late, it has become more and more unreliable... sometimes, i spend a whole night just trying to access my blog. even online chats can get cut off midway and phone calls to their tech helpdesk costs a hefty 30 cents a call! and believe it or not, all that has shockingly added up to a monthly phone bill of no less than what i get paying for broadband access!... guess nothing in life is really free..

i have finally decided to jump aboard the Broad Band bandwagon.. it is hard to decide between the Starhub, PacNet and SingNet plans (especially when i have to sift through all the gimmicky stuff and hidden costs).. i got all muddled-up last night figuring out the technical specifications of each.. but i can't wait anymore.. i have to get onto broadband, else i get left along the roadside on the Info Highway, or worse still get run over and left behind as road kill..

dramatic?.. yes, the sad facts of living in a highly competitive and high-tech world...
