Eten glofiish M700

Though this might not be the latest of news, but hey had been researching on this phone for a few weeks now and it would actually be out mid-end this month in Singapore as said by an ETEN carrier here. Yes though it won't have a 5MP camera with VGA 30fps video, a keypad and funky looks but, I...

Got Nintendo Wii?

For something new in gaming, thinking of buying a Nintendo Wii for a change, why? For starters, I usually don't console game & all I had previously was a NES, a SEGA Gamegear & Gameboy SP. Therefore, I usually see my chances at modern console gaming at friend's houses or chalets. But not much of a problem actually as...

O2 XDA Zinc aka Asus Mars II

I think I found the phone I am finally looking for, the O2 XDA Zinc (aka Asus Mars II). Not a far cry as a downgrade from my current Dell Axim with a VGA (640x480 screen, 624Mhz Processor & 16MB Dedicated 3D accelerator). This one has all the stuffs I currently need without having to carry around 2-3 devices...

Nokia N95

It seems that Nokia is quite aggressive on the phone launch lately, sticking to the N80 form, comes the lighter yet (more loaded) N95. It simply just give me second thoughts of continuing to wait to purchase the super outdated and overdue Benq-Siemens P51 (which still spots a 1.3MP camera, but runs WM OS and had GPS) given the...

Last Semester Paper, Benq-Siemens p51

Wahhaah still have one paper to go on friday & already in holiday mood. Haiz haiz must restraint, RESTRAINT! Only few more days, put in the effort for the last Thermofluids II paper & whoa! Then the holiday anvil can come lose on me full time anytime. Moreover, though I find the Thermofluids kinda dry & boring it's our...

Fujitsu Siemens Pocket Loox T830

When I brought my first Siemens handphone more than 6 years ago, I've never turned away from that brand ever since & went on with my SX1 till now. Then things started looking bleak when BenQ acquired them. As I never really like BenQ phones. I never thought I would see myself owning another Siemens. Till I almost forgot...

Sony Ericsson P990i Vs Dopod 838 Pro (HTC Hermes)

Been researching quite abit on the close battle between the 2 powerhouse phones, the Sony Ericsson P990i & the Dopod 838 Pro (HTC Hermes aka O2 XDA Trion aka Qtek 9600 whatever the rebranding). Both costing at least $1000 & representing the motherload of current consumer technology. I am still on the deciding stage so do drop down any...

Samsung 10MP Camera Phone SCH-B600

Whoa, Ten megapixels as announced at CeBIT with the SCH-B600. Just when you thought you digital camera has all the opmhh & off! this baby spots a 3x optical zoom, with flash, S-DMB support, Bluetooth, not to mention a possible helfy price tag. Whats more it even had EV-DO & TV-out so you can enjoy all your 10 Megapixels...

Nintendo Rufflu-lution

Nintendo Rufflu-lution! Strange, theres nothing on the Nintendo Revolution in Singapore, due to be launched this japan year in answer to Sony's PS3 & the Xbox 360. Even the 2 Nintendo booths at the Suntec IT show had nothing much on the lineup except demos on the SP & New DS Lite. Haha, now the funny part. Recall one of my...

Dell PDA exchange

It came first as a call to dell yesterday morning as I got too fed up with the online technical support getting me nowhere, except the default answers like "please upgrade your operating ROM to the latest version & try again, thank you". After getting through like 5 layers of call menus & such, I finally managed to SPEAK...

Funny Nintendo Revolution Advert

Yea we all know that Sony's out with their PS3 next year, answering that too will be Microsoft's Xbox360, both spotting wireless controllers, new processors, engine & such. But I guess nothing much can offer the interactivity the Nintendo Revolution offers. In place of the all standard game controller is a rather unique "TV remote" styled controller where on-screen-controls...

Line to the power – 1.5Mps ADSL!

Since the activation of my 1.5Mps ADSL line on wednesday, (haha yea not the fastest in the world though...) Got my free Homeportal1800HG gateway modem installed & a 40GB pocket harddisk from my ISP through the mail on Friday. Previously, I was paying like $58/mth on 512kps on like a expired contract which no longer exists (duh). The newer...

Its ALIVE! & oh yea, its sunday too…

Though this happened early this week, I guess I would put it down here anyway. If you remembered my previous post of the rather laughingly funny experience of me accidentally drowning my v3 bluetooth headset, (by forgetting to take it out in the wash). I have some rather interesting yet scary news as an update. Yes it was confirmed...

Motorola HT820 Bluetooth A2DP AV stereo headphones review

Review of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headset/HeadphoneIntroduction I guess the main reason why people are pulling back on BT headphones currently are compatiblity problems & price. Personally I brought this headphone because of its build & looks, not to mention at a bargain price too. The decision is very much uncharted as theres no searchable review of this on the...

Dumb fun with kodak photo kiosk

Well, this is so funny I guess I have to get it down here & share it with you guys. I was on my usual shopping trips around orchard when I came across this Kodak instant digital print station at the Paragon basement just outside the supermarket. & man its loaded with card readers, wireless & infra-red, it literally...

Drowned V3 bluetooth headset

I was wondering where was my bluetooth headset the past few days. Till mum approached me today morning during breakfast saying, "Shaun I found this in the laundry, its in the pants you wore early this week" & there she passed me my V3 bluetooth headset, though still in one piece, its just as good a an extra...

Review of budget x50v VGA out cable from PC-mobile

As we all know, one of the main features the x50v has is the ability to output video (or mirror) its display onto computer monitors or projectors. Perfect for students like me offering presentations at school or projects. However, that's one of the main problems we dell consumers outside USA face- lack of accessory variety. Living in Singapore, literally...

PC Show 2005

Initially I intended to drop by the expo tomorrow, but since we were free after the movie Madagascar why not give the place a visit today instead. Met Mark there, who brought a new Dell laptop. Dom wanted to get one, but we turned down dell after a shocking exit (literally) one of the display 6000 series laptops shorted...

Ordered Dell Axim x50v

😀 Came back today anticipating a good deal from dell & yes finally a dell axim x50v deal less than $800, infact $681. They are having 25% off PDAs, far much better than last month's deals (which I had been following up), offering a free 5-in-1 deal: 1100mah spare battery, screen protector sheets (non-lasting types) , free delivery, 64mb...

Digital Cable

💡 The cable guy came by to install the new digital set-top box this evening as my sis wanted some new additional animax cable channel, only supported by digital cable. So starhub offered to swap our old cable box for a digital one. Spotting a contemporary silver/black look in place of our old cable set top box, which had...
