It depends which side out of town you are. Towards Takiab area there is good 3G reception. Going th other way you may be restricted to HSPDA speeds.

Re: Cheapest mobile calls to europe

My girlfriend is on dTac. If you dial 009(i think, might wanna check that!) before you make your call it goes out on a voip service which only costs a few baht per minute.

Re: desktop PC wanted

Panthip Plaza is a good bet in bkk, mate. Second hand might be a good idea as hard disk prices have gone through the roof (globally) since the floods. If you get any problems with a second hand one I'll always be happy to lend a hand gettin it sorted.

Re: Property in Hua Hin

There's a golden rule when it comes to investing money in Thailand. And it's not one that will sit happy with any of the sponsors of this site; do not invest what you can't afford to loose.

Luckily or not, I can't afford to loose Jack. So that's exactly what I shall be investing.

Re: Train hit car at Soi 94 today

A very sad story indeed, and it might make one or two of us think (don't know if I'm included, too lazy to backtrack through the thread but absolutely ready to accept any hypocrisy claims heading my way if needs be) about what we may and may have not happened.
