EB Technologies MyWave24	Radio/Wireless	Billed by hour using prepaid cards - this is a hotspot service, not a residential one.
EB Technologies Residential / Commercial	Wireless/Wired	Package structure is confusing. From what I can tell, they offer both Wireless and Wired versions of their service.
PenangFon	Wired	Seems like a good service, but its Penang only.
AtlasOne	Wireless	Limited coverage area.
MyKris	Wireless	Official website is quite useless, hard to use and doesn’t have information about the service. Price was gotten from an e-mail from a customer service rep. More information at this forum discussion. Service quality debatable - comments are either saying its very good or very bad.
ZapZone	Wireless	Extremely limited coverage - Only 20 locations throughout Malaysia.
GoLightSpeed	Wireless	Available in limited areas. Seems to be in pre-registration mode.
IM Wirefree Broadband	Wireless	Coverage available in Klang Valley. PC Card costs RM1000.
