Bangkok--22 Jun--Shin Satellite Corporate
Shin Satellite Public Company Limited, the operator of the IPSTAR satellite system, welcomed the arrival at CommunicAsia of its new Mobile VSAT Vehicle (MVV) from Thailand. The innovative vehicle, based on a modified pickup
truck, is designed to offer customers truly cost-effective Satellite News Gathering (SNG) and TV Backhaul applications. To prove its reliability and ruggedness, two MVVs were driven from Thailand by road to Singapore and set up at the CommunicAsia 2006 booth and outside the hall.
Mr. Patompop Suwansiri, Head of Marketing at Shin Satellite, said, "The technology can ideally be used by broadcasters in the field. The MVV uplinks at 2 Mbps, which is fine for most needs. Other specialist uses are disaster management and surveillance or defense video communications. The system can be custom-configured to specific
requirements and applications."
By using the world's most advanced satellite system, IPSTAR, the MVV will provide voice, video and data applications, such as Video Conferencing, Digital SNG, and Nano BTS to organizations that require high security and reliability, such as broadcasters, telcos, the military and disaster relief organizations. The vehicle can be used in the most rugged and remote locations of any country in Asia.
The IPSTAR MVV is available now in Thailand, China, Vietnam, Myanmar, Australia and New Zealand.

Tech note: several people say they received blank emails from me. I have read on the web that this happens with MS Outlook and Outlook Express, though not exclusively. It appears not even Microsoft knows why. It is sometimes the receiver's program that creates the blank.
