Lately, my desktop computer shuts down on its own and some silly error code appears that makes all editing impossible. I have to reboot a few times to get the job done. I suspect it is some malware being installed into the computer. As of now, I am currently in KL and blogging via a laptop. It will take some days, at least 3-4 days before my desktop computer is repaired and brought back. I have requested that geniune Windows XP Home edition be installed so that I can have automatic update of anti-spyware from Microsoft web site. An upgrade to Windows Vista requiring change of motherboard to Intel Core Duo to support it cost about rm700 more. I suppose I will use my present desktop for a few more months to a year before upgrading to Windows Vista.

I’m not sure why you want to strap your cell phone, iPod, etc. to a water bottle, but just in case, BevyTech’s got you covered. The idea seems cool, but I usually throw my water bottles on the ground and there’s always that chance I might misplace it, so this is not for me. In any case, this unique water bottle features a type of strap in the middle of the water bottle to strap in your item. In the picture, it shows a BlackBerry SmartPhone, a normal cell phone, and an iPod. The “pocket” in which the object is held, measures out to be 4.625- x 2.125- x 1 inches. Additionally, the water bottle itself can hold 22 fluid ounces.

Electra Warehouse has a huge selection of discount electronics, home and car audio, and DJ equipment. They offer the lowest prices anywhere. Compare them against the major stores, and they’re prices will be lower every time. My company has bought me a new car, an olive green Myvi 1.3 auto on 14th February 2007. It comes with a car alarm plus many other gadgets. Even for me who have not driven for over 10 years, I am able to drive my automatic new car easily. I don’t have to worry about changing gears and the discount car alarms gives me a form of security. I can set up the car alarm after locking my car whenever I go out.

If you run a home office, you cannot make do without a scanner. In my own home office, I have a computer, internet connection, a HP printer, a Canon scanner, digital camera and a fax machine. All these gadgets make my work complete and I am able to work from home comfortably.

Last night, I had dinner in The Food Loft in Gurney Plaza. And yes, there is a statue of a brown naked woman with a violin. It was part of the decoration and the ambience looks like those of a hotel. The chairs were linen covered soft cushion. You need to get a card each person to order. Simply find your table and take note of your table reservation number. Then order your food and you need to bring your card along to be scanned by the computer for the order. Tell the cook your table number and he will bring the food to your place. After the meal, you card will be scanned again for the payment.

Those child tracking phones are great for most situations, but sometimes what your kid might need most in an emergency is just a really loud noise, and Sanyo has their new A5520SA outfitted with a buzzer for that very purpose. You can also pair the phone with a number so that when the alarm button is activated a call is automatically made to you. The phone can also work with a GPS locater service, for a fee, and even has a decent 2.2-inch screen and a 1.3 megapixel camera, so your kid won’t feel like some total lamer toting a ghetto handset — because if there’s anything more important than your child’s safety, it’s her social status.

I have a digital camera that costs about RM570. One of the most economical digital cameras around. It is a Kodak Easyshare C643. One of my readers thought I bought very expensive thousand over ringgits cameras from viewing the colorful and beautiful photos on my blogs. Well, that’s my secret. Hehe. My camera has served me well all this months and I snap a lot of photos to put them onto my blogs. So if you see people snapping food pictures away, don’t think they are crazy. They are just bloggers like me busy taking the best shots for our blogs.

If I were to holiday in Hawaii and stay in Wailea maui rentals, I will make sure I bring along my faithful camera. If you like to travel to Hawaii, make sure you read up on Hawaii Travel from the web site and bring along a good affordable digital camera. You can even send your memory card to the photo shop to have them printed out so that you can view your photo album later on.

Looks like the French electronics company Modelabs will be reported making a handset specifically for Hummer. The market demographics for civilian Hummer vehicles are pretty macho and all that, so this handset, understandably, has that same feel from just looking at photos of it (yes, it’s made of “premium materials”). The nice looking slider phone has a 2.2 inch LCD touch screen, 2 megapixel camera and 25MB of onboard memory plus expansion via a micro SD card. A summary of features includes: GSM / GPRS / EDGE (eww), 262K color touchscreen with virtual keyboard, microSD slot, MP3 player and FM radio and a weight of 100 grams.

My dad chose a Nokia 2310 handphone for this coming Father’s day on June 17th 2007, which I paid for. It was a Father’s day gift to him. Since he has some problems with his old Nokia handphone, I decided to buy one for him. The total cost was RM220 and after trade-in his old handphone, he got RM50. So in effect, I only pay RM170 for his new toy. I guess these are the little favors I can do for him to show him that I appreciate what he has done for me all these years. Furthermore, with good income from blogging and paid posts like PayPerPost, Blogsvertise, and others, it is about time that I splurge a little on my parents as they are getting older.

Here are some of the key features of this nifty gadget:

FM radio with Sound Visualization

65,536-color display

SMS and picture messaging

Customizable animated screensavers

MP3-grade ringing tones

Operating frequency - Dual-band GSM 900/1800 only

Vespa Motor Scooters certainly look stylish and elegant with the apple olive green color, just like my new Myvi. And you can ride it even wearing a skirt. This model is suitable for ladies and old men and is user friendly. The fact that you can place both feet in front comfortably in this compact scooter is a joy to ride on. In case of an accident, both your knees are protected and there is less trauma or graze to the knee caps.

Unlike motorbikes, where you need to place your leg wide apart due to the partition in front makes it unsightly if you were to wear a short skirt. Which is why most motorist wear a jacket to cover their hands and front bodies, including the thighs. In my Maths tuition class in Penang years ago, I recalled seeing my tuition mates both fell down from a motorbike and had both their left legs grazed on the road with much bleeding. Obviously both were wearing shorts and ride together which explains the injuries on the same sides of the legs. And when they both attended tuition classes, everyone knows they were dating and seeing each other.

Had they used Vespa motor scooter, this would not have happened. This is because Vespa motor scooters are designed such that you can place both feet together in front on the scooter and ride in more comfort. There are so many styles and designs to choose from the simple ones to more stylish ones. And GS Motor Works dot com is America’s Favorite Scooter Company with over 1 million visitors last year. The volume certainly speaks for itself with many people buying and riding Vespa Motor Scooters. They can use it to work or fetch a kid to school and avoid the nasty traffic jams that cars usually get stuck with. If you are in a hurry to go somewhere such as attending an important meeting and don’t want to be late, why not try Vespa Motor Scooter which can easily weave in and out of bad traffic jams?
