That the common things happen with the advertiser/marketer in Indonesia (especially Telco), their objective is to get most subscriber in a short period of time with highlighting on the cheap price (battle price) and all the "sophisticated" benefit.

Like it or not, based on research price is still the main driver to purchase a product and added with all those sophisticated value. As long as they can achieve certain number of new subscribers, they don't really care about the after-sales service. So what happen is, they got high in conversion but low in sustaining and at the end of the day the numbers is not that important anymore.

Never thought of it that way, however, as a child of the modern world, (I got my first handphone when I was 8 or 9) I really cannot imagine life without a hp.

Surely a HP is awesome, it may socially retard people, but on a whole, it's a LIFE SAVING THINGIE! (i'm speaking from expirience) And no, DO NOT BUY ESIA, its sordid crap, that doesn't work, and as you mentioned, owned by Bakrie. So buy the simplest phone that cost Rp 400.000 and enjoy the banalities, worst come to worst, the next time a lady cuts you in front of the cashier, you can mock call someone to insult the lady. (Did that once too..
