YouTube - BlackBerry PlayBook - Preview

This is the much-awaited BlackBerry tablet. From the press-release from RIM, the PlayBook is one "heavy" tablet. Heavy meaning it's packed with features and the internals are not flimsy either.

Was already eyeing the Android powered Samsung Galazy tab, but the PlayBook has the bonus of being able to access the native apps in the BlackBerry (in case the user also owns one). Hmmmmm and the best thing about it, well, it'll come out by the time I am fully "capable" of getting one wahahahaha

Problems with Windows 7 and MS Office 2010

Did an upgrade on the desktop this month, Windows 7 from Vista, MS Office 2010 from 2008. So far problem encountered is when printing on the SAMSUNG ML-1610 laser printer, multiple printouts doesn't push thru, don't know if re-installing the driver will correct the problem.

Technology and Transportation together

Bought a Nokia C3-00 yesterday (our 2nd Nokia) at the Nokia store in Trinoma. The store is a little bit off from where the people are. Had a bit of a hard time to look for it.Though I saw a store that sells the unit cheaper than the official Nokia store was offering, I opted to get the unit from the Nokia store because of the no fuss warranty that the unit comes with.

About midway home, when we tested the phone, there was this very loud static coming out from both the recipient and the caller.  So I called the store, asked if I could bring it to the Nokia store in Bonifacio High Street, but was told that the store in BHS doesn't have a tech support, so I asked if the Nokia store in Mall of Asia is a better option, was told that the best thing to do still is to bring back the phone to Nokia Trinoma. If we do that, it would take years to get there and back. 

So we decided to park the car in Parksquare One in Makati, took the MRT to Trinoma. Nokia store there replaced the C3 without fuss and we were back in Makati in less than an hour. 

Am thankful for the presence of MRT.

The New Ford F-150 SuperCrew Raptor

I never liked F-150s before, they're big and gas guzzlers. Oh and the design is like always wanting. But this one, I got to ooooh and ahhh at it. Very nice and big and hopefully will have a very good off-road performance.

An Office in the Forest: The Workspaces of SelgasCano

these kinds of architecture that I like, minimalist with a touch of modern art...(very nerdy hehehehe)

The New Apple TV

This is the new Apple TV, yup it's small, and it's because, it doesn't have a hard drive in it. It's purely a streaming device. You can watch movies from Netflix and iTunes Store (which both is not available locally). You can't even plug in a USB hard drive and watch music from there.

Hmmmm maybe I'll stick with my Popcorn Hour, or perhaps ask a relative to give it to me as a gift (it's only $99). Then perhaps I'll just use it to stream my iTunes music to my AV receiver....hmmmm.

The New iPod Touch

This is the new iPod Touch...they say, it's an iPhone 4 without the phone.

It's a lot thinner and smaller than the iPhone though the screen size is the same. It's also thinner than it's predecessor. What's new is, the Retina Display, HD video recording, Facetime, Dual Cameras.

Will I get one, maybe...we'll see

This is the NEW iPod NANO

More like it's a novelty toy than a serious thing. I don't like the form factor...but I might say, I love the screen, though small...but then again, they've experimented on the size and screen before with the 3rd Gen Nano (square-ish design) but that was a flop.

But I guess the size will be a hit with the athletes...no need for a case, it's got it's own clip, a screen capable of multi-touch (though no pinch and zoom), with FM radio and Nike +.

The New iPod Shuffle

These are the new iPod Shuffle...looks familiar? Yup! Cause they look exactly like the 2nd Gen Shuffles...except that they're tinier. It's cute but doesn't really give me that "I want one" feeling. I like the 3rd Gen Shuffle better.
