astro b.yond : High Definition
Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2009 2:15 pm
Any one here jumped onto the bandwagon? Being a HD aficionado, i signed up on 13th December and it was installed yesterday, i.e. 21st December 2009.(which was very fast, IMHO as they said applications will only be processed within 10 working days).
What you get is a new sattelite dish ( greyish black color ), completely new wiring, new set top box, remote and Smart Card. If you choose to keep your old decoder, you have to pay RM80.00 for installation, otherwise, they take your old decoder and dish and you don't pay a cent. Then it's RM20.00 extra per month after 4 months of free usage!!!
My opinion : the four HD channels, i.e. National Geographic HD, History HD, HBO HD & Supersport HD really, really blew my mind! I mean, this is what i was waiting for, the picture was so vivid and lifelike, i could literally feel as though the whales(in national geographic HD) were coming at me. My advise, don't wait, get astro b.yond and you will be transported to a whole new level of entertainment. more HD channels will be added next year, with ESPN HD(coming in January 2010) and all world cup 2010 matches in full, glorious HD!!!
Questions welcome.
