The something I bought was placed in a paper bag instead of a plastic bag, it’s pretty cool to see they uses paper bag, very environmental friendly and it’s pretty. Haha. When you buy small stuff from Switch like iPod, iPhone, they will put it in these paper bags.

And now, I found a friend who uses Android too and he’s Kenny, a geek like me, just signed up for DiGi’s DG Smartplan and bought the HTC Legend on a discounted price. I guess more and more people will go for Android already because Maxis and DiGi are selling it.

HTC Google Nexus One still rocks with bigger screen. Haha, but my rival HTC Desire is cool!

If you are wondering what’s CLIPtec, it’s actually an OEM brand in Malaysia and they outsource stuff from China and brand it under their name. I realized that my phone, the Nexus One and Nokia N95 would probably go low battery at night or during the day when I surf the day a lot and I am always on-the-go, so I need a charger in my car. I went to the computer store and bought this USB charger, now I can charge my phone with the USB cable and never worry of my battery run dry.

I went into Switch, an authorized Apple store here in Penang, Malaysia yesterday and spotted an expensive pair of speakers. The design is like a crystal with the speaker hole in front. It’s the Harman Kardon GLA-55. It’s also my first time knowing about this pair of speakers. What amazed me was not the sound quality but the price tag. It’s RM3299 (around 1026US$)!

It must be very pro, but at this moment, I guess I wouldn’t spend so much on the speaker. I have my own home theater system in room and another 5.1 Creative speaker connected to my PC and the sound rocks too.

I went to look for torch light in hardware store few weeks ago before I went to in the National Service camp. At first, I was thinking to look for those military style Chinese made LED torch, they look very cool, but somehow I couldn’t find it and I didn’t want torch which doesn’t uses LED. LED is brighter and save energy.

I found this for RM10 (3USD), pretty cheap, bright and best part of all it doesn’t need battery. There’s built in rechargeable battery and I only need to plug it into normal power socket to recharge it.

So far, I have been using it for quite some times already and I didn’t even recharge it, means the battery life is quite lasting.

You know right, iPhone here in Malaysia was like I can’t get the phone on the spot, I have to pay for deposit and wait the phone for at least a month. I hate this, I’ve money already still I can’t get the phone. Although iPhone is now available in store, still Nexus One has a better specs and a faster processor. What I want is a fast phone, my N95 is very slow and lags a lot.

Although Malaysia is not in their testing market, my brother who is in Singapore helped me to get in and the ETA is 10 days and I will be checking the status everyday. For sure, I will have the phone before Chinese New Year which falls on the valentine’s day too! =)

Stay tune for some Android updates here when I get the phone. Very excited right now.

Actually there’s not many freebies I can get at the PC Fair. It’s all brouchers and flyers of price list and promotion.

There’s a big broadband war going on at the PC Fair, P1 Wimax gave a very big paper bag which inside consist only a piece of their promotion flyer. The paper bag was real big and it’s good to use as I used it to dump all my flyers.

Then at Maxis Broadband booth, they gave bag too, it’s a recycle environmental friendly bag with a promotion book and a piece of flyer. They got free sweets at their booth too. Great.

Digi, Celcom and Streamyx didn’t give any bag though.

Besides bags and brouchers, HP gave me a headband with Christmas hat decoration and a fresh scent thingy which give me to hang in the car to smells good. Now I got something interesting.

Lastly, I got a lot of balloons from Maxis Broadband and P1 Wimax. =D These were useless, but fun to be popped.

Or as a car decorations. =D

Walked around the exhibition hall and found something to play and try out and that is the iRiver M3 GPS system. The design is not bad, but the screen is rather small, it will be nice if it’s widescreen. Since it’s indoor, there’s I can’t navigate around with this thing, so I place search on my house address and it works. It has preloaded maps of Malaysia and it search by cities.

What’s this different from Garmin is that it is also a media player which plays music, video, text and photo. The storage is via SD card and addition features are like local yellow page listing, 3D junction view, landmark icons and toll rates calculator.

Price at RM499 for PC Fair price, I don’t like this because the touch screen is unresponsive, I always keyed in the wrong word when searching for road and navigating around is not easy.

The only thing I can try with the dummy set is feel the size and compare it. The HD2 will probably not be my wanted phone because it’s too huge. Although it’s thin, light, and the screen is extremely big, yet it still feel big, wide on hand and in the pocket. 4.3″ is a little bit too big IMO.

I haven’t tried a Android device before. It’s all looking on Youtube and reading about user experience in before, HTC Hero is the only Android device in Malaysia currently and, still I don’t get to try on it. Boring.

If you are looking for a phone, I recommend you to wait for Motorola’s MILESTONE or the new HTC Hero replacement in early 2010.

I signed up for Maxis Mobile Internet 500MB data plan for RM58 per month, but after a month of usage, I can hardly reach the 500MB limit usage. I turned on push email, push Twitter via Tweets60, sent a lot of picture email to awayfromcomputer.com, chat on Nimbuzz and surf the net, but the total usage was only around 240MB.

So guess, I’ll do YouTube surfing too to fully utilize my data plan. =D

DiGi offers a RM48 unlimited data plan which I think is better than other because it’s unlimited, somehow cheapest of all. Too bad, I am a Maxis postpaid user, I can’t change to DiGi, it’s a company line.
