Collected my phone yesterday at the Wheelock Nokia service center. The service was rather good on my personal opinion, besides the long string of complaints and comments the service center is notorious for. I mean, come to think about it, dealing with customers at the service is not an easy job, having to put up with downtime for the...
After months of research and price hunting, I was considering a new Harddisk player and recorder at Carrefour yesterday, one by the name of AC Ryan, with time based recording. But apparently upon reaching there, they seem to have a better recorder in store now known as the Emtec Movie Cube which not only boosts everything the AC Ryan...
There is always so much controversy with regards to the inflexible regulations notorious in Singapore- govern this govern that they say. This one in particular with respect to the rules against the use of Segways in commuting. No wonder it never took off, or even heard of to many in Singapore.
However, with the ongoing encouragement of public transport use...
Something funny about ipods and questions about their unreliability. Say if you "broke" your iPhone, "get a new one" said jobs. So that will very much go in line as the iPod as well as shown in this video. I think the thing which sets the stereotypical iPod and PC user is the difference in the buy and throw...
Ok folks, here are some official words from Nokia Singapore with regards to the Nokia N96.
Quote from Nokia Singapore:
Please be advised that Nokia N96 mobile phone has been scheduled to be launched at the end of the third quarter of 2008. However, at this stage we are unable to advice on the actual launch date for the phone.
Please...
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 taken with...
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 very way...
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 this baby)...
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, the N95...
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. I can...
Got my spanking new N95 8GB today! Would be setting my newest phone addition to charge overnight, in the meantime, I can post of what you can expect in the box in the traditional "unboxing ritual". Will get to play more of it tomorrow.
Its all over the box!
Greeting upon opening lid
Thats all in the box
As you can see, the...
The day was quite busy today, it started off in school with lots of planning and tying down of the final design, in which we will send out for external fabrication. Being a Wednesday, the day ended early at 3pm following a planned Track and Field meeting to attend for oh-my-gosh 10mins only before having to rush down to...
Had sometime, so I guess I got kinda carried away typing up a "short post" on technology changes I would expect in years to come, the end result is this post.
Looking back, technology had really progressed amazingly fast over the years, not to mention price downs as well. I still remembered having paid $75 for a 4MB memory...
Just like what Dick Tracy had with that funky watch, only better! Qiao Xing Mobile Communication, one of China’s leading domestic manufacturers of mobile handsets which operates its business primarily through its subsidiary, CEC Telecom Co. Ltd. announced the launch of one of the Company’s most innovative products to date, the W100 Wrist Watch phone.
Mobile Phone Watch with...
Here are some heads up and it's official on the new revised N95, primarily made for the US market it's still called the N95 aka N95 US (and not the N95i nor the N95 music edition). There is no telling how Nokia will rebrand it here in Asia, but for identification stakes I will call it the "i" version...
It seems that Nokia is not quite contented with the N95 crown jewel dominating the limelight at the moment (and trashing the iphone too). As we all know, Nokia always upgrades current handsets by making them black and installing firmware and hardware upgrades besides slapping a distictive 'i' a the end of every such model. The N95i is no...

Well steve, seems that there are quite a few laughs out there.
shhh they are listening, pretend to talk!
For those who wanna know more bout the iphone, read more below:
The thing with almost all PDA device manufacturers out there, they just do not seem to get the recipe right or simply just do not listen to consumers. For me, the perfect phone is very hard to come by it's always either this or that in terms of features. Never have there been a single phone with all the...
As part of the new phones announced at 3GSM in Barcelona, here are few of the few interesting phones which should be coming out within 1 or 2 quarters time. HTC and Nokia didn't really steal the show though, as most the products on show are actually announced products ages ago. But Toshiba also came out with a heart-stopper...
