With Christmas just around the corner, demand for mobile phones is skyrocketing again. It's certainly out there as one of the most in-demand holiday gifts. Parents, youngsters as well as young professionals are all saving up for the shiny new phone they can parade around just in time for Christmas. Like most people, I've tried almost all cellphone brands. It was a long time ago since I've owned a Samsung. 'twas a slider phone to be exact. I had a great time being reacquainted with this brand again over the weekend. They had invited the media for an event launching ... Continue Reading...
The new HP Mini by Studio Tord Boontje : coming soon!
The HP Mini 1100 Vivienne Tam Special Edition has been hugely successful that I hear a Version 2 is in the works. Ever since I've written about it here before, I've been eyeing the netbook as a suitable companion to my aluminum Macbook which I don't take out of the house too often, due to my tendency to lose things - even the most valuable ones, ahem. A netbook also appeals to me because it is simply nifty to bring around wherever you go. This probably explains the growing fashion phenomenon of selling laptop bags and sleeves, in different patterns and colors. I ... Continue Reading...
Food photography with the Nokia 6700
Why do I have a feeling that the new Nokia 6700 is a blogger's best friend? Okay, make it food blogger! :P Recently, we were invited to the launch of Philippine Tatler's Best Restaurants 2009 and one of the things on showcase was a life-size gallery featuring delicious photos taken by society photographer Alex van Hagen using the Nokia 6700. See the pics behind the lovely ladies. Too bad I was too busy with my old Verzio cam (incidentally my favorite for portability) and failed to test shoot the Nokia 6700. A camphone that's excellent for taking food photos ... Continue Reading...
Why is the iPhone 3G more expensive than the iPhone 3G S?
One week to go and Globe Telecoms will be making available the iPhone 3G S to its postpaid and prepaid subscribers. Am making special mention of Globe because the last time I asked at the cellphone tiangge in Robinsons Manila, they gave no indication that they'll have it handy before Globe's July 31 release to the public. Am certainly very interested in getting the new iPhone and studying my options at the moment. That is, do I subscribe to a Globe plan or just buy an unlocked unit? I've remained a prepaid subscriber all these years because I hate paying monthly ... Continue Reading...
First sighting of the iPhone 3GS in the Philippines…. w00t!
As expected, I got my first sighting of the much-coveted iPhone 3GS in the Manila Bulletin Technews Lab yesterday. Picture is kinda blurred, but that's tech editor Art Samaniego having a blast with the Apple gadget, which will be made available by Globe to the public on July 31 yet. As an Apple user, I can't help but salivate at this latest version which is touted to be two times faster than the iPhone 3G. Easily one of the highlights is the digital compass and installed software like Google Maps which will be able to tell you where your location is, and tell ... Continue Reading...
