Nokia N82 Black Edition

Woot! Just got myself a Nokia N82 Black Edition, it costs a bit more than the normal silver edition but it’s way better looking than the silver one which was butt ugly.

I was actually thinking of buying a new camera to upgrade my old Canon iXus I but then I read the reviews of the Nokia N82 and how it was the best camera phone out there (with a Xenon Flash to boot) so I decided why not get the Nokia N82 Black Edition instead. I get a decent camera, a phone, GPS receiver, music and video player all in one device. Plus I’m always carrying it around so I’ll probably take more pictures with it, unlike my old Canon iXus I which I never really got to use since I sometimes leave behind since I was lugging several gadgets already.

NBA Finals Trip for Lakers

Wow what a game, the Lakers came back from a 17 point deficit early in the game to take the lead at the end of the 3rd quarter and eventually finishing off the San Antonio Spurs. I’m quite impressed with this young Lakers team, they could have easily said "screw this, we have two more […]

Bruce Bowen’s Secret Weapon

Found this at the PInoyexchange forums, no wonder Bowen sticks like glue to Kobe. It’s not that he wants to play defense, he’s got the hots for The Black Mamba…

NBA Conference Finals

Looks like the Spurs pulled it off again, beating the Hornets at their homecourt in game 7 and setting up a Lakers vs Spurs Western Conference Finals. I wonder how David Stern is feeling right now ? On one hand he could have his dream matchup of Lakers vs Celtics (will a new Lakers vs […]

Latrell Sprewell and Karma

Remember Latrell Sprewell ? Well it seems he’s fallen into hard times, I just love how karma works sometimes. In case you don’t know Latrell Sprewell is a former NBA player who refused a a $21 million contract because “he’s got a family to feed” (read: I’m greedy and want more money).

Sansa Clip Firmware 1.01.29 Update

Good news for Sansa Clip owners, firmware 1.01.29 just came out and it has loads of useful features. For me the best new feature is that podcasts and audiobooks are now treated separately from the music files (just put them in the Audiobook/Podcast directory or tag them as Audiobook/Podcast).

Cardinal Santos Hospital

I’m currently here at the Cardinal Santos Hospital where my wife will undergo an operation. I’ve been to quite a few hospitals and I gotta say if ever I had to be hospitalized (knock on wood!) the Cardinal Santos Hospital would be on the top of my list. This place is swanky and doesn’t have that hospital smell-of-death to it. They have a coffee vendo machine which has a gazillion different versions of coffee - coffee latte, frappucino, you name it they got it. The only downside is it’s very expensive especially the food. I bought a bag of Oishi crackers and it cost me P37, if I bought it in a grocery it would probably cost P12-15 these guys charge an arm and a leg! Oh well I guess if there’s any place where it’s gonna cost you an arm and a leg it’s a hospital. At least for me it’s only metaphorically and not literally.

Labor Day Holiday

Today is a Holiday - Labor Day which we ironically celebrate by NOT Labor-ing. I’ve always found that curious, isn’t that the equivalent of celebrating Valentines Day being unromantic, uh wait that IS how I celebrate Valentines Day
