Search "line app". It's by naver from Japan.

Migrate your contacts and mail outta there ASAP. I wouldn't expect much support from hotmail unless you're using a paid acct.

That Thai font they use comes default with Windows Word but not with Mac Word. Get the PDF version as another poster suggested.

Survey any random 10 Android users, and 6-7 of them will tell you they wish they had an iPhone. Android apps are sub-par...they are made poorly cause decent devs can't make any money on Android. NO ONE develops for Android first...a dev puts his blood, sweat and tears into an iOS app and chunks out something later for Android as an afterthought.

Seriously, if you want quality with quality apps and you appreciate good experience using the phone, get an iPhone or iPad. If you want something cheap that'll just do....and you don't care about the experience...and you don't care about rewarding a good dev with a few dollars, and want free pirated apps.....get an Android.

Be careful using the Google Drive. Read their ToS. Anything you upload to them they say they own and have global rights to it...and they WILL use it for "promotional" purposes...whatever that means.

I think this headline from All Things D sums it up best: What'€™s This? A Mac Virus? No Actually It's A Weakness in Java - http://zite.to/HjZyAM

Fyi this is like a 2 1/2 year old thread that's been dug up.

No one really know what Apple is going to release, until they release it. Everyone is just guessing...or at least guessing at which "leak" is accurate. I myself very much doubt Apple will release a touch screen Macbook anytime soon. The ergonomics of it just don't really work very well. Voice input/direction or motion control (or something new) will probably have to be improved and incorporated (to provide a better alternative for an input/control) before we see a touch screen notebook.

I think they will just continue to iterate the iPad for "users" and the laptops/desktops for professional content and programming creation....for the time being.

No.

The iPad uses an ARM based processor. Mac OS X is for x86 (and older versions for PowerPC processors), however they both use the same Unix core. iOS is also a touch interface whereas OS X is built for mouse / keyboard interface.

Many OS X apps now have iOS equivalents. Also there are various apps to remotely connect to your OS X desktop is really necessary.

Don't know about Kindle, but B2S has an app for the iPad/iPhone with loads of thai ebooks and magazines. It's brilliant. AIS has an ebook app to available for all....and several Thai magazines have apps for iOS.

There is no such thing as privacy in this country

Taking a shot that someone definitively knows the answer to this:

For the Non-O based on marriage 1 year extension. I know the requirements are 40k proof of income per month or 400k in a thai bank for at least 60 days.

Regarding the 400k in the bank option, I have a Fixed Income Treasury Fund account with Kasikorn Bank solely in my name. This account does have a bank book where I can get a daily balance, interest accrued and Nav pricing. It will show a balance of 400k with a deposit date along with a updated balance of 400k (to prove the 60 days) when I apply for the visa. Will this work if I stick the 400k there?

Or must it be a "Savings Deposit" account?

I'd like to get at least a minimal amount of interest on that cash

Thanks in advance.

Blame Apple? They just made a complaint....

It's the independent court and judge that examined the complain and said, "Yes, Apple has a real case here" and the COURT issues the injunction.

Get an iPad (for color) or a Kindle. Subscription arrives instantly, never blocked, lost or delayed.

I can confirm this as well. Ran into the same problem in Penang on the 4th. (grumble)

It's available right now via the Thai online apple store - http://store.apple.com/th

I'm having an issue with overheating DSL gateway / wireless routers. Previously Linksys, now Netgear. The thing heats up and starts dropping packets and disconnecting. Have to unplug it, let it cool down for a bit and then it's fine for a while. Have to unplug it and let it cool for like 15 minutes 2-3 times a day.

Anyone else experience the same? Any other options for modem / routers that are heat resistant?

Perhaps better to just get separate modem and wireless router?

It's very unlikely this is to snoop. They can read all your outgoing mail ANYWAY regardless if you are using their SMTP port or not (unless you're using an SSL connection to your SMTP). It's VERY easy for any ISP to see everything you're doing that isn't being sent over a specifically encrypted channel.

I believe they do this to try and reduce being SPAM originating from TOT owned IPs.

Suggest waiting for the Apple iPad to come out. At the very least, Amazon will surely be dropping the prices on the Kindle.

The Kindle is great but it's a single purpose machine (it does that single purpose quite well). What appeals to me about the iPad, if I get tired of reading, well I can:

- watch a video/movie

- play a game (tens of thousands to choose from)

- surf the web (yeah it doesn't have flash but many website are building substitute flash-less sites anyway)

- dictate (or type) an email or letter (voice dictation which is quite good)

Plus...I really just love touch screen interfaces. Kindle just seems so old school to me with the buttons.

No problem for me on TOT

I don't believe YOU can get the IP from MSN. What you can do is entice the thief somehow to click on a weblink (to a page that you set-upspecifically for this purpose with analytics). If they click the link. just look at the analytics / logs to see what IP he came from. However, now you know what ISP they are using....so what?

Best thing is have your friend simply go to the police, and the police can get a court order for Microsoft to reveal the IP of the thief. Then the police could get a court order to the ISP to reveal further information about the account being used.

Combined with their search data, and google analytics and now a DNS, Google is literally trying to track and gather information on everything everyone does online.

Talk about Big Brother....

Soi 10 on Thong Lor, top level. Has space, variety of seats, wifi, power outlets, coffee and food.

I've purchased through the online Apple store. No problems, stuff ships fairly quickly from Singapore.

The "thai" keyboard simply has thai script to the right of the standard english qwerty lettering. I don't even notice it.

No I don't believe you can't get a VAT refund without having the computer with you. VAT refunds are really intended for tourists and not for residents. I don't know that the online store has the paperwork for a VAT refund, as I don't think they really figure on a tourist coming to Thailand and ordering from the online Apple store
