watch world cup 2010


It’s world cup time again.

There will be no shortage of football to be watched in June with the FIFA schedule ( fifa.com/worldcup/matches/index.html ) displaying 63 matches of World Cup 2010 brilliance to be watched.

Of course if you’re planning to watch World Cup 2010 games over the internet then it helps to know the time difference between South Africa and your place of residence. Here’s a quick guide:

World time zones


If not you then good place to get time in South Africa relative to where you are is by using a time zone converter like timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc , Luckily FIFA has already set up a form which will allow for your time zome fifa.com/worldcup/matches/index.html.

As you can see for a large part of the world, the world cup is on pretty late and unless you have a low sleep requirement or have a very understanding boss, there’s a good chance that you will want to find some way to record the games so you can watch them at a later date.

Thankfully, at Chinavasion, that’s very possible.

You know what a HDD Media Player is. It’s that wonderful thing that stores hours and hours of entertainment in one place with a cavernous hard drive of 500GB or more.

And with 63 matches scheduled (with each match lasting 105 minutes) you’re going to need that extra storage space.
