Remember last year P1 promised to bring to Malaysia the first WiMAX embedded devices this year? Well, you can be rest assured that the device is on its way here because we’ve got pictures to prove it! Yesterday, P1 revealed an exciting year ahead for WiMAX, bringing to us their very own P1 WiMAX –enabled netbook as well as several exciting products to look forward to like the portable USB dongle, Shuttle, and a stylish Tower modem for your home.

“In 2009, we promised to bring into the market Malaysia’s first WiMAX embedded devices this year and we are keeping good to that promise. P1’s WiMAX embedded netbook will be a game changer in the wireless broadband industry. It will be the key that opens the floodgate to a plethora of WiMAX embedded computers coming into Malaysia this year.” -- Michael Lai, Chief Executive Officer, P1.

The devices to expect in 2010 (Shuttle, Tower and P1 WiMAX netbook)!

I know some (or maybe even most) of you still don’t have P1 coverage at your home, but during the media briefing, P1 also promise that it will be expanding its coverage to 45% of Malaysian population, including East Malaysia in 2010, so let’s keep our fingers crossed. Despite facing difficulties due to traffic congestion in 2009, P1 tremendously improved its network to facilitate for the strong demand for P1 WiMAX, so let’s hope that when the coverage expands, the network will be improved alongside of it too.

Unfortunately though, P1 did not reveal when these devices will be available, but they did mention about competitive pricing and it will be available sooner than you expect!
