Although Blackberry device is not without applications , but the applications are scattering all over the web. This made it less interesting and time consuming finding application that suite the needs of Blackberry users, who are mostly business oriented peoples with busy schedule.
Having its own app store is definitely what Blackberry needed to boost its presence and better compete with the rest of players. It is time saver as well as providing convenient access for the device owner to buy and download the app directly from the device. The only downside is, the app is price from as low as RM2.99.
But wait, before you get too excited, for the time being, this app store is only open to US, Canada and UK folks. But stay tune, hope we don’t have to wait any longer.
This is one giant Nokia 5800 XpressMusic at Nokia Store in Antwerp. So what special, other than its GIANT size? Well, actually , it is ‘touch screen’ capable ‘phone’ as well, although it is not real. Pedestrians can touch the phone to play around with maps, browsing photos as well listening to music, but sadly, no calling feature available.
It would be nice if we can have one at home. What do you think? Anyway, nice ads.
Being the largest computer manufacturer in the world, HP probably has delivered the most notebooks in the world and probably in Malaysia too. One of notebook component, battery is ‘well-known’ as not a nature friendly stuff. So it was just the right timing when HP organize 2 months battery recycling promotion, called Live Green with HP Recycling Promo to recycle its own old battery brand.
The cool thing is, peoples who bring their old batteries for recycling purpose won’t going back home empty handed. Instead, HP is giving away thumb drive, cash vouchers and chargers for those that eligible for the program . Free stuff won’t come frequently you know!
That’s fast. It just only last week that Celcom announce the availability of Blackberry Storm on its network. And Maxis seems like doesn’t care if the iPhone they just unveiled last month will get ‘friendly rival’, when they too, announce the arrival of Blackberry Storm on their website.
Seriously, the rivalry getting more interesting. Unlike Celcom, Maxis has already put the price tag for this device. It started at RM2199 with 24 months contract for Value Plus 150 & BlackBerry service from Maxis . If you prefer no contract, be ready to pay RM 2,499 plus BlackBerry service from Maxis.
Maxis has started accepting reservation from this week. Te first 300 customers will bring home free Blackberry Leather Holster, Blackberry Charging Pod and Jabra Bluetooth Headset.
LG Arena KM900 is another touch screen phone from LG. It comes with 3” WVGA (480X800) TFT/Touch screen, 5MP camera and storage 2GB NAND Flash/1GB SDRAM + 8GB. Not a bad setup of hardware, from companies that more famously known with home appliances.
But LG Arena’s strength lies on it S-Class user interface, which display the menu in 3D, called 3D cube to browse its 4 different screens – contacts, widgets, shortcuts and home screen. The home screen’s shortcut menu can be scrolled line by line, and it will showing all shortcuts when it viewed horizontally.
But sorry, there won’t be any app store, where you can download additional software. Which means, this is one off setup , what you buy, that’s what you get only. Head to product page for more detail. And here the closer looks of the phone and the UI.
