  1. Its freakin' commentary - not lip-syncing!!! LOL

    Yes, very droll.........but when you're watching a player run up to take a penalty yet you've already heard that he has missed, it kind of takes away from the enjoyment. Believe me, I've experienced this. Admittedly, not as likely for the audio to be so far ahead when coming via internet (more likely to be lagging satellite video perhaps?) but certainly happens if listening via short wave radio (not that anyone seems to bother with the radio these days).

  2. "Those that ponied up for high def just have to turn down the volume on the TV and feed english commentary from the internet OR from Astro on cable into their sound system and voila - high def picture with english commentary. Simple."

    ..........providing you can get the audio to sync with the video.

  3. Hello,

    I don't often have a good word to say about them (well, not the admin department anyway), but Phuket International Hospital sorted out the deep muscle pain I had in my lower back last year. The various treatments (massage, heat, some kind of electrical stimulation and a kind of vibrating thingy) had me perched back in comfort on a hard bar stool after only three sessions.

    Sorry I can't be any more descriptive medically.

    Cheers,

  4. Personally, without any insurance I would only recommend Phuket International Hospital from an outpatient point of view for a diagnosis or whatever. Once they get a whiff that you need to spend some time there, the brown uniformed admin staff start to play a bigger part and the cost soon mounts. Nice rooms though, and a good view along the by-pass road if you like to take your drip out on to the balcony and sit and watch the traffic.
