The given situation is quite simple and I cannot find any lose on your side if the info. provided is all correct.
First, you have not signed any contract with the firm. It means there has been no protection on either side ( And I am sure your firm has some intention to save those MPF / labour insurance cost ). In such a way, there is no official document stating there is a clause about 1-month notice. The charge is not poissible.
Second, I do not suggest you to apply sick-leave after Christmas. I opt you doing so after 2010! After completion of service this month, the company must pay your salary as it is illegal not doing so. You should apply a few days sick leave since 3rd Jan 2011 and report to the new firm. Reasons are:
1) to check whether the new environment is okay. If not, you can return this firm at once without problem,
2) to make sure if the existing firm has not paid you, you can chase easier for you are still "officially" their employee.
After settlement, you can phone the firm for resignation and if there is no contract. They can do nothing.
What I want to remind you is: You would lose the company's reference letter to confirm your employment at that period time as your relationship will be broken down. If you do not mind, follow my suggestions above to go through.
Happy New Year!
