And what-- one year later-- is the answer to the topic question?

Is it still Tattoo? And is the price the same...?

Whatever phone it is, what price can it be got at MBK or CentralWorld?

Thank you!

The Tatoo is now obsolete, and has been replaced by HTC by the Wildfire, and now Wildfire S, I don't know about MBK prices but here in Chiang Mai it's sold 8900 bahts at HTC shop... looks to me like an honest Android phone... The Wellcom A99 is another possible choice for the same kind of price.

Aside from throwing things and ordering dogs to attack......  On the apparently remote chance that a dog does bite someone on a public street....  Who should pay for the required rabies series of injections?

I was bitten by a dog while leisurely riding my bike in our mooban. A small group of 4 or 5 little dogs ( poms and poodles ) "escaped" their house under the very nose of the owners ( who did absolutely nothing ). One of them bit my ankle, it was so sudden I could not even see which one... We went to ask the owners if they had any certificates for vaccinations , they had none... We made a point of asking them to pay for the first 3 shots of vaccines ( out of 5 ..) , they had the nerve to ask for a discount and we had to insist several time to get our money back, which they paid very reluctantly. It was not really for the money, but to try to instill a bit of responsibility in them.

Thanks Phil.

I realize I could have and should Googled but I thought their might eiher be some sort of especially kind expert around or someone who knew of the perfect way to find out what I need.

If I do find a the ideal resource I'll post about it.

No problems. I guess short of knowing how your room is configured, no one can really help you here, I am afraid there are no magic solutions. But , like for stereo, placement of your 5.1 speakers can influence a lot on the quality of your setup.

The best I think  would be for you to experiment , and tweak until you find the best solution, and bliss when watching your videos and listening your music... Take into account the WAF ( wife acceptance factor ) ... :)

There are a lot of advices on internet, here are the first 2 that showed up when I made a google search :

It depends on a lot of parameters, the size of your room, the furniture around, can you easily put cables around to connect your rear speakers ... etc etc ...

I too used to have a basic home theater ( Onkyo/Mordaunt-Short), but after I have moved house, I simply couldn't set it up again, so I sold it and switched back to a 2.1 stereo system.

Let us know if you find a solution...

"If you could post back how things go with the Streak after you have had it a bit longer , that would be great

Thanks

After a few days with it, I must say I like it a lot. I bought it for the big screen and it is just fine. However font size in some applications is still very small for my dwindling eyesight, which makes it sometimes difficult to read.I also have to get used to the keyboard, which I find less practical to use than the one on my iPhone.

It will take more days and weeks before I fully master the machine and Android, but I am happy I took the plunge ...
