Starsky & Hutch

Caught Starsky & Hutch at cineleisure with my cousin today, not a bad, "the 70s" crime bustin' show. Had lunch at taka before that where I finally got the SIGG bottle with a design and colour I wanted (naturally being black). You can try checking out the variety of bottles there, far better than any I've seen at hereen...

Friday!

Friday, TGIF! but for today its aka chore day- dropped by the bank to apply for my debit card and get a new bankbook, lucky the lunch crowd is not there yet, very smooth and empty... The thing about visiting service side shops in the weekdays where everyone is at work or school does make a big diff in...

SX1 Mods- virtual keyboard

Well, I always wanted one of those Ibiz laser keyboards for pdas (Official Site), but didn't know that they might be so good into hearing my prayers and making one for the sx1. Yes there is one for the phone, recently revealed at Cebit. On a personal note text entry do take sometime getting used to, even after using...

Flying handphone

Thursday was a rather funny day esp for my phone- Hurried off for some lessons from the 4th floor down with my hands full of lecture files and stationary, together with my Siemens SL45 on the stack. The moment I hit the stairs a sudden shift of upward g-forces caused everything flying up- and around the stair well the...

Safe’s super savers

There I was at the safe superstore warehouse at Sims drive doing what most singaporeans are born for- queuing. Whats more? is a branded 21" TV going for $99 or a 14" going for $69 too much too resist? Anyway I was not in for any of those (and thats good), but pretty much for a portable DVD player...

Niffy stuffs

Been surfin around lately for some addons for my phone and I think getting used to messaging on my new phone can be quite a pain at first and I guess it do take some time to get used to it. One alternative is to keep on practising on type gun speed typing game to get acustomised to the...

Got my SX1!!! wheee! (flips)

Dropped down to hello shop, Orchard today. There was this very funny aura there which was rather "funny" initially, the "coming soon" sign is gone now, being replaced with a "features" backdrop in the store. but still a dummy phone on display, so I approached the salesgirl regarding the launch... "cuse me, is the SX1 out yet?" (for the millionth...

And whew.. I got a GBA SP now…

Didn't know the gamboy game Mario and Lugi superstar saga is such a hot game and tops at gamespot either, glad I got that game. The photos of my bike course are developed, not bad I say. But I guess it would be forever when I could even find time to ge tthem scanned Currently Listening: Lionel Hampton & Oscar...

Lotsa crap worth noting…

In am in the mood for a long entry, hey so what word processors and spellcheck for right? they just invite you to spew out "text" so easily... This is gonna be quite a long entry, mind my blabbering... And so there was me, pretty much cracked yesterday whether onto getting the Garmin 12XL GPS ($330 ouch!) to "illegally aid"...

Its sunday, lets talk bout saturday

Didn't find time to get to Bukit Batok driving center yesterday, as book-out was quite late in the afternoon. Its time to get my fitness back up again last week with two 4km runs within 22 mins and 20mins respectively, not bad considering I had not trained for 1-month+ Home time is net time as usual. Did some regular catching...

Ekk! Nokia again?

It had been sometime since I've used a dinky Nokia phone, (considering that my 1st two cellphones were Nokias, 880 and 3210). I had been a happy Siemens user since, always anxiously hoping (and waiting) for the release of the SX1 smartphone. But Siemens is very good at keeping their customers waiting- far better than I've ever expected, since...

Slacker’s sunday

Nothing much happened today this sunday, but managed to get my old stinking canoscan FB310 scanner to work with windows XP, after some Bios and driver tweaks, off in a gif. Software incompatitblity? no such thing in my way dude... I dun need to depend so much on my other windows 95 system to scan images. So with that...

Warcraft 3

Finally managed to find some time to play Warcraft 3: Frozen Trone up to the 6th mission this morning and to update this blog too. So much time spent away from my computer and things start to get fragmented and messed up from everyday family use (and yea, do I have to be the computer admin in my family...

Siemens SX1

And now a phone to end my search, and too, a potential succesor of my old Siemens SL45i Mp3 phone, the SX1. Expected to be released in Aug this year, its one phone I would drool for, (though expecting a high price for it) being a Siemens fan myself (*gone are nokia phones man!*) This one is as small as...

And yup, so theres the sale going on at Creative technologies headquarters @ jurong. Went there this morning, reached there at opening time (11am) and heck! 300 people are already there queuing.

Phone Firmware upgrade

Watched "Finding Nemo" today at GV marina with my NS friends and our happy ORDing Platoon Sgt. Went to Breeks buffet dinner thereafter after window shopping around the marina-suntec area.
