Best value-for-money 3G broadband provider in Sydney?

Hi,
I'm shopping around for a 3G BB provider in Sydney. Telstra appears the obvious choice, but is there a better-value provider else where? I have the Ericsson F3607gw adapter on a Satellite T130 / 02M, and I think it's on the 850MHz band (based on on-line specs). However, I seem to recall that the ad from JB Hi-Fi then (July2010) also mentioned 2100MHz.
Can someone pls advise the actual bands this adapter can use (can't find it on the laptop), what is the top speed (and is there a way to increase throughput), and a reliable provider. Expected usage is around Sydney Metro. OS is Win7 Pro.
Many thanks for any help.

Telstra usually have good speeds but you pay extra for that speed, and I believe the F3607gw is 7.2mb/s max anyway.
3/Vodafone seem to have some good deals right now.
Here is a list of deals from various providers:

Best value for optimizer_mode

In my production environment we have to move from Rule based optimizer to cost based optimizer . We work with oracle 10g but until now our application before run queries execute an alter session set optimizer_mode=rule.
What is the best value for this parameter?
# FIRST_ROWS(n)
# FIRST_ROWS
# ALL_ROWS
# CHOOSE
We don't know what kind of query users will do. Those queries can retrive all rows or a part of the table.

Do you think tha I shoud use stored outlines?
I have found this :
20.2.1 Moving from RBO to the Query Optimizer
If an application was developed using the rule-based optimizer, then a considerable amount of effort might have gone into manually tuning the SQL statements to optimize performance. You can use plan stability to leverage the effort that has already gone into performance tuning by preserving the behavior of the application when upgrading from rule-based to query optimization.
By creating outlines for an application before switching to query optimization, the plans generated by the rule-based optimizer can be used, while statements generated by newly written applications developed after the switch use query plans. To create and use outlines for an application, use the following process.
Note:
Carefully read this procedure and consider its implications before executing it!
1.
Ensure that schemas in which outlines are to be created have the CREATE ANY OUTLINE privilege. For example, from SYS:
GRANT CREATE ANY OUTLINE TO user-name
2.
Execute syntax similar to the following to designate; for example, the RBOCAT outline category.
ALTER SESSION SET CREATE_STORED_OUTLINES = rbocat;
3.
Run the application long enough to capture stored outlines for all important SQL statements.
4.
Suspend outline generation:
ALTER SESSION SET CREATE_STORED_OUTLINES = FALSE;
5.
Gather statistics with the DBMS_STATS package.
6.
Alter the parameter OPTIMIZER_MODE to CHOOSE.
7.
Enter the following syntax to make Oracle use the outlines in category RBOCAT:
ALTER SESSION SET USE_STORED_OUTLINES = rbocat;
8.
Run the application.
Subject to the limitations of plan stability, access paths for this application's SQL statements should be unchanged.

is it good for performance?
I have never use stored outlines.

Tango , FaceTime blocked !! Any value for money VPN in Middle East ?

Hi
I'm using iPhone 5 iOS 7 all legit no jailbreak
I live in the Middle East
Tango , true caller and FaceTime are blocked
I need something to make video calls
Am thinking of going the VPN route
What are the good value for money options and will they be strong enough for video calls ??
Thanks in advance
Regards

I know it's created and published by carriers. I met a few working at Ooredoo Qatar who told me how everything works with Apple, And that is why I suggested this fix. Apple wont need to modify the current carrier bundles, or even notify them.
Countries where FaceTime is blocked as KSA and UAE already have "AllowVOIP" available in their carrier bundle and set to off, my carrier in Qatar has it set to on and that is why I have FaceTime. T-Mobile doesn't even have this field and that is why I lose FaceTime once my T-Mobile US SIM is inside. All Apple needs to do is enable FaceTime by default and only block it if asked specifically to do so by the "AllowVOIP" field.

Mac versus PC - which is best value for photoshop?

Hi my background is as a Graphic Designer (accustomed to using macs). However I recently decided to go freelance as an illustrator/graphic artist. I paint in photoshop using texture brushes and also scan in my drawings. The work i do crunches alot of memory and i'm looking to get a new mac pro or a pc to allow me to work as my imac is having a heartattack every time i use a brush. Initially i was looking to get a mac as this is what i am used to but looking at the prices of the memory it seems to cost more than the mac itself , and for my heavy photoshop work i'm gonna need alot of memory.
Are PCs a better option financially or is it best to stick with a mac? I've heard alot of stuff about how PCs are much more prone to viruses, but some people have also told me that the memory is alot cheaper to buy. Does photoshop run ok on PCs?
Anyway I dont have alot of money as i'm just starting out so i don't really want to spend loads on a mac pro if I can get a PC that does the same job for alot less. Does anyone have any clear advice/experience on the subject?

I have had both systems at home for over 15 years, and started out working on pre mac/pc graphics systems so I do not believe to be biased. A big factor in your decision should be is do you already own mac or pc software, and which platform you want to stay on? Photoshop and the creative suite runs fine on the pc and has now for a long time.
The benefits I find of each are:
PC
Cheaper hardware and upgrades (EG: 2nd Internal DVD drive)
Can buy hardware at you local electronic appliance store in case of emergency
A few more software plug-ins and choices
Mac
Less downtime due to virus/mallware
Less hardware problems
Less software problems
Will not need to convert fonts using crossfont for mac clients
Can play DVDs without having to buy third party player.
While the PC has more 3rd party maufacturors which drive prices down, that sometimes is a negative for the PC because hardware does not sync up as seamlessly. You may save money on the PC when initially buying your system, but in the long run you may use up more time trying to clean up viruses and incompatibilities. So they fall pretty equal and the decision really depends on the user and what suits your needs best and whom you will be working with.
Whether you are on pc or mac I encourage checking out the other side, as this adds to your way of thinking and to your arsenal of creative graphics solutions.

NVDIA compatability? Value for money?

I have a Hybrid SSD and was thinking of buying an NVDIA card to speed up rendering in After Effects.
Which is the best to buy. How much faster do they enable rendering. Are they stable? Easy to fit? Any known problems?
If you know about a good article on the subject or have first hand experience - do let me know.
Thanks

I think your best bet is
A) Barefeats - has done a lot of tests to try to answer
B) MacRumors - they are always debating the topic!
Is there a perfect solution? maybe not. In some cases dual GPU has been shown to help. Some use to use an ATI for displas and GTX (285 or 470 etc or Quadro 4000) for rendering.
2010 model has best, you have t o watch for power supported if you get beyond two 6-pin aux cables and 225W.

Which mac is best value for our video editing needs?

We are on a budget and need either a new mac or our old one, upgraded, so that we can edit a substantial amount of video using iMovie (and maybe later Final Cut Express if needed). The video is being shot for us by a semi-pro with a fabulous camera, and is HD.
We have the G5 iMac, 1.5 GB memory, 1.8GHz processor and 134 G internal hard drive. We are using a 160 G external HD for the iMovie stuff right now and will need to get a bigger external.
Shouldn't this mac be sufficient? If not, what is recommended?
Would like to keep hardware purchase under $1000.
Thanks!

Define "substantial amount" of video. 10 hrs? 100 hrs?
What flavor of HD? There are eleventy million.
• Some play with iMovie and FCE, some don't.
• Some require an Intel Mac to decode, some don't.
• Some will play fine from a FW400 drive and some require a RAID tower.

Value for money?

Hi,
Will I notice a significant difference between running an i5 4460 pc with an nvidia 750ti 2gb graphics card and an i7 4790 with the same card?
The i7 will cost approx £100 more. Will the i7 save me hours when it comes to rendering/exporting or just a few seconds/minutes here and there?
Thank you

The difference would be huge, get the i7. The i5-4460 has 4 cores, but no Hyperthreads. In addition to having a faster clock speed, the i7 CPU you mention supports Hyperthreading and therefore doubles the cores to 8 that are available for Premiere Pro.

Jim

No value for money

i purchased new asha 230 by paying 3600. But it does not support hike messenger,telegram and other social apps...ram64mb . But my purchased micromax bolt by paying 3500.... It has all things such as android,512 ram,front cam,gps,3g..etc... And also '1' year warranty..
Y Nokia produced costly phones?????? Any knows the ans...??

While I'll agree that Nokia's Asha devices were pretty dull on the VFM factor as they lacked many of the features, most appropriately the well developed apps. But the pricing can't be compared to companies such as Micromax. As with every big company, there are a lot of costs associated with the production, sales and support and they need to be covered from what you pay.

What are the optimal values for mac and arp timeout values

Hi Guys.
What are the best values for "mac address-table aging-time" and "arp timeout" by following scenarios?:
- single sg300-10 as layer3-switch with a maximum of 10 local (direct connected) hosts
- and a 3750x-stack with 100 local hosts + hsrp with a other stack of the same sort
or for asa 5520 as internet gateway for 500 clients?
I use at the moment a mac aging-time from 300 seconds and a arp timeout from 3600 seconds.
Is this o.k.?
Thanks.

Marvel.
As far as enhancing the CLI, it will of course be enhanced when new firmware releases provide new features. As far as making it more IOS-like, best to my knowledge, no. The only other supported CLI on the SB switches are on the SX500 series and SX200E series which the CLI are all consistent. If you bought a SX500 series the commands are nearly identical minus the different feature sets.

Locale values for the arabic db in oracle 10g

Please suggest me the locale values for the Oracle 10g client/server that can store arabic data.
Please also suggest me the best value for the "Database character set".
Note: Both my client and server will be installed on the Arabic version of Windows XP.

Possible character sets for Arabic are AL16UTF16, AL32UTF8, AR8ISO8859P6, AR8MSWIN1256, UTF8
I suggest to use AL32UTF8 as database character set.
so NLS_LANG at client side would be e.g. ARABIC_QATAR.AL32UTF8 ({NLS_LANGUAGE}_{NLS_TERRITORY}.{CHARACTERSET})
Check [Locale Data|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/applocaledata.htm] for other possible supported languages, territories, character sets. (you can even see recommended character sets in this page)

What is the Best Approach for System Defined Fields and Default values

Hi ,
Please let me know that what can be the best approach for providing a Default value for the System defined fields when creating a User and How can we hide the System defined fields at the time of User creation

You cannot provide default values for any attributes defined in the FormMetaData.xml file. You can only provide default values for fields defined in the User Defined Fields and supply a default value.
You can using entity adapters to populate some of the values, but you must supply an Organization because there is an entity adapter that you cannot modify that verifies the organization name.

Best Practice for Extracting a Single Value from Oracle Table

I'm using Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.3.0.
I'd like to know the best practice for doing something like this in a PL/SQL block:
DECLARE
    v_student_id    student.student_id%TYPE;
BEGIN
    SELECT student_id
    INTO    v_student_id
    FROM    student
    WHERE   last_name = 'Smith'
    AND     ROWNUM = 1;
END;
Of course, the problem here is that when there is no hit, the NO_DATA_FOUND exception is raised, which halts execution. So what if I want to continue in spite of the exception?
Yes, I could create a nested block with EXCEPTION section, etc., but that seems clunky for what seems to be a very simple task.
I've also seen this handled like this:
DECLARE
    v_student_id    student.student_id%TYPE;
    CURSOR c_student_id IS
        SELECT student_id
        FROM    student
        WHERE   last_name = 'Smith'
        AND     ROWNUM = 1;
BEGIN
    OPEN c_student_id;
    FETCH c_student_id INTO v_student_id;
    IF c_student_id%NOTFOUND THEN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('not found');
    ELSE
        (do stuff)
    END IF;
    CLOSE c_student_id;
END;
But this still seems like killing an ant with a sledge hammer.
What's the best way?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Wayne

Do not design in order to avoid exceptions. Do not code in order to avoid exceptions.
Exceptions are good. Damn good. As it allows you to catch an unexpected process branch, where execution did not go as planned and coded.
Trying to avoid exceptions is just plain bloody stupid.
As for you specific problem. When the SQL fails to find a row and a value to return, what then? This is unexpected - if you did not want a value, you would not have coded the SQL to find a value. So the SQL not finding a value is an exception to what you intend with your code. And you need to decide what to do with that exception.
How to implement it. The #1 rule in software engineering - modularisation.
E.g.
create or replace function FindSomething( name varchar2 ) return foo.col1%type is
id foo.col1%type;
begin
select col1 into id from foo where col2 = upper(name);
return( id );
exception when NOT_FOUND then
return( null );
end;
And that is your problem. Modularisation. You are not considering it.
And not the only problem mind you. Seems like your keyboard has a stuck capslock key. Writing code in all uppercase is just as bloody silly as trying to avoid exceptions.
