I wonder if many will remember the small task I gave myself half a year ago? When I commenced that “project”, I projected 1.5 years for the entire project to be completed. Well, it is done; I had finished tagging/correcting/organizing/updating/revamping/re-ripping my music library ahead of schedule. It was frustrating at times, almost futile but I [...]

I waited quite a while for Apple’s official-until-cannot-official stand on this issue before posting my thoughts on the whole debacle. But before I proceed any further, there are a couple of details I need to clarify. Essentially, there’s 2 antenna-related issues uncovered soon after the release of the iPhone 4. The “original” one is the [...]

Just yesterday, Apple published a letter on its site, clarifying their stand on the entire antenna issue. As usual, that letter is a handsome piece of PR, so beautiful crafted that someone actually suggested that Apple can take any calamity, i.e. even a doomsday event, & turn it into wonderful news. Since my mind was [...]

Knowing It I’d contemplated switching over to the iPhone for a while. I find it increasingly cumbersome to toggle between my mp3 player & my cellphone while mobile. My Nokia E71, while being nothing less than a “solid workhorse” for emails, web browsing (Opera Mini/Mobile), instant messaging (Nimbuzz), navigation (Garmin Mobile XT, Ovi Maps & [...]

Contrary to what some people may perceive, I have nothing against the contributions that Apple has given the technological landscape. More importantly, I give/recognize credit where/when it’s due, i.e. I do not blatantly dismiss any positive innovations even though I have doubts about the intents of any company’s business decisions/actions. That said, recently I chanced [...]

UPDATE: this-just-in – Microsoft has finally unveiled their latest revision of the Windows Mobile platform. The name has been revised to “Windows Phone 7” to encourage the masses to throw all their perception of the Windows Mobile platform out of the “Windows” (pun intended), i.e. like how they are trying now to make everyone forget [...]

I’ve won a MacBook. It all started when I participated in this survey issued by SingTel as part of their “Mo4U” campaign. Right before (like 1 day before) I left for Taiwan, I received a letter from SingTel informing me that I’ve won a “MacBook 13″ New – Aluminium cover“. That is the exact phrase [...]

My friend, Kunal, likes the new Jaguar XF. I like the iPhone/iPod Touch. What gives! Apple had a huge success lately with its products, especially the iPhone (I think I just got over my iPhone allergy, because there was a time when everyone just looked like it lost its mind with the iPhone), so, in [...]

I have this extra iPod Touch translucent hard case for sale, for a long while already. To me it looks absolutely gorgeous, dunno why nobody’s picking them up at the forum marketplace. Note: it’s translucent black, & the photo at the bottom compares its slimness to the Samsung U600 cellphone, which’s 10.9mm thin only! So [...]
