Why Wi-Tribe may not be your best bet - UPDATED

-
UPDATED - Oct 28, 2008 - Here I've been connected through Wi-Tribe during the past month and a half. And here is the verdict: Coverage in my area was good, as long as the modem was near or outside a window. I live in Al-Jubeiha Area Bandwidth was near the amount I paid for but always less Torrent traffic is shaped, don't expect anything above 32KB After forgetting a couple of torrents uploading at full speed for a few days, I found out that I was getting around 56kbps, about the same speed a quick dial up phone connection If you reach around 20GB of total upload+download in a month, you will be dropped down to 128kbps, but you will be really getting around 56kbps On support Calling support is a hit and miss deal.

3-Rings-of-Light on my 360

After a while of crashing and freezing, expectedly, my XBOX 360 has finally given me the 3 finger salute known as 3RL (3 Rings of Light). Error code is 0102.

I'm starting with the eraser. Will keep you posted. UPDATE My XBOX 360 is fixed and I went through the whole Nurnburgring on PGR3 and everything except for the fans seems to be working fine.
