Gamers, Which Would You Get: Banglalion vs Qubee Wimax
As you may have read, I’m really impressed with Qubee’s 1 Mbps Wimax connection (I got the 7 day demo). However, Banglalion is also another Wimax provider in Bangladesh. I’m torn between the two and I need your help to decide. The main problem is Quebee’s 1 Mbps is priced at Tk 5,250/month while Banglalion’s […]
Qubee 1 Mbps Wimax Hands-on Impressions
I’m using a demo of Queebe’s 1 Mbps Wimax line. For those that don’t know about Wimax, it is a new wireless internet connectivity technology. Qubee provides you with a modem (priced at Tk 4,000) which receives wireless signals from Qubee’s tower. The higher up you place the modem, the better connection you can get. […]

ZipBD (Sirius Broadband) 512kbps ISP Review
I guess this review is long overdue. Zipbd (I had the 256 kbps package) used to provide good service when I first joined in 2008. But not anymore. I upgraded to the 512 kbps package @ Tk 1,500 per month last month. Frankly, the upgrade process wasn’t as smooth as I hoped. I submitted a […]
Modern Warfare 2 Army 32 Times Bigger Than Bangladesh Army
Activision has said that a whopping 8 million players are um… playing Modern Warfare 2. That is a heck of a lot if you ask me. In fact it is 32 times bigger than our Bangladesh Army (currently at 250,000 personnel Wikipedia). Not only that, but that figure is 11 times bigger than our Army, […]

Are Those Really Blu-Ray Discs In Bangladesh?
I’ve noticed for a while that there are Blu-Ray discs on shelf in movie stores such as Fahim Music Centre and others. For all intents and purpose, they come in the original Blu-Ray packaging. So, one day I asked the shopkeeper, “Are those really blu-ray discs?”. “Yes”, was the obvious reply. But surprising enough, he […]

Why Aren’t There Any Good ISPs In Bangladesh?
Here is the average Bangladeshi web surfers’ experience. Webpages take forever to load, and even after it does finish, bam, the service is out so you can’t surf the internet anymore. Well, I might have exaggerated a bit, but the underlying problem is still the same. Even if you had enough and decided to change […]
