I was invited to the SingTel Blogger Race on the F1 simulators, currently at SingTel's Pickering Operations Complex, moving to Suntec City next week. I even got to wear the F1 race suit, which felt like a built-in sauna!
On a whim, I emailed Ivy from SingTel to ask about buying the SingTel Huawei E180 modem at a discount. To my surprise, SingTel gave it to me free. Thank you, Ivy, and thank you, SingTel! It's just arrived.
