N82 real world tests

You won't totally experience the N82 after using it for a few days and putting it through the "real world" tasks. Overall my reactions are mixed, but I felt that Nokia could have made the N82 a better phone. The main thing which shines in this phone is the camera, throughout this blog posts are some photos...

Full Hands-on review of the Nokia N82

Got the N82 today. Nicknamed, "the imaging king", the Nokia N82 is a Candybar form factor phone which is the latest crown jewel in line of the N series line of phones. On paper the specifications seem impressive, feature-wise, the N82 is in not much in any very much different from the flagship N95 8GB and very...

Rain and cooling runs

Well the rain had been continuously pouring down these days, the weather is great but dampened are always my planned runs in the evening, which always so coincidentally pours around my usual 5-6pm running periods. The mornings though are much drier and pretty much cooler as well, only that I have have to be in school at...

Only that the crew: Rod, Andre & Audrey will be out on a 2 week holiday from boss. Labeled as the "largest record setting Kana plucked ever" by Rod,...

Rumored 6 Megapixel Camera slider phone from Nokia

Apparently from this leaked picture from Nokia, it seems that the successor to the N93i wouldn't be too far off in the 2008, spotting a similar form factor with the camera mounted perpendicularly to the phone face. The N96? Figures. This sideway mounting position is typical for phones which feature optical zooms (yup no pixelated digital zooms for...

Christmas is hectic for all but particularly for Santa, who must live in Kyrgyzstan and make his rounds at lightning speed if he is to deliver gifts to all the world's children on time, a Swedish consultancy has concluded.

The days after the marathon

Was around the esplanade area yesterday, I never thought that I would myself back at the hot spot so soon as I was very much recovered and walking around normally. The area was left very much in the shadow of the big event the day before, with barricades still lined all round the roads, alone excavator doing...

N95 8GB sample photos

Had been testing the camera out lately, and I am say I am quite impressed by the N95 8GB camera, the starting up takes a modest 3 seconds which is so much better than my previous HP rw6828 which can easily take 10 seconds. While the HP rw6828 takes 2 minutes to save a 2 Megapixel image,...

Running with the sore throat that won’t run away!

Had not been running alot for the past one week, as I wanted to fully recover from my minor sore throat that had been irritating me for days. It's not exactly serious, a very mild one in fact which I can completely mask with fisherman's friend or woods cough drops, but its just simply bugging me and...

1st few days with the Nokia N95 8GB

After using my N95 8GB for a few days, finally got the hang of numeric pad SMSing again, it had been almost 5 over years since I used a phone with a proper numeric keypad... no more funny side keypads with my old SX1 or having the need to use a stylus with my HP rw6828. ...

It’s heaty waterworld for me, still gyming and running

Got quite a bit of the "heaty" lately but kept that down very well with more intake of water (not to mention toilet visits) and cooling "liang" tea brewed by mum. For those who know, I have quite a high metabolism rate and have to go with almost a full Med bottle of water every 2 hours...
