Well design on the front as the buttons and screen looks rather luxury class. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;HSDPA network (3.5G) which gives you a very good speed if you're surfing with your mobile phone like what I always do. But if you're really planning to surf heavily you may want to subscribe for the unlimited 3G package that currently U Mobile, Maxis and Celcom are offering. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Memory wise - this is the most study development of this product. Only 160MB in the internal which people are now talking on 8G, 16G or even 32G. How could 160MB enough for a camera phone that has a 8.1MP lens? They're not thinking at all now. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;GPS - You should try to use the GPS. This is build in a-GPS model which I think rather useful as I've been using GPS phone for quite some time. It is worth buying for those who're always on the road. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Good phone but low memory. &lt;/div&gt;

Did they just blind or what? The prove shows everything.

I do not have a time to update my blog. This is the most busy month for my past two years.&lt;br /&gt;My department just got a restructure and a lot of planning and re-alignment need to be done for each product &amp;amp; services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you may know from the previous post that I'm now hired by CIMB Bank. My department is dealing with remittance. Like most of you, I do not know a single thing about remittance at first before I joint. Then I slowly pickup and understand each of their services. It is so complicated on how a bank deals with remittance. Too many different kinds of services around... You've got Cash2Cash, Bank2Bank, Normal TT, Bank Draft system, Bank proprietary system. But all their function is actually the same. To send money over to another part (either local or oversea).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TT is one of the simplest form of sending money because almost all the bank is using the same service called swift. But the disadvantage is also of the fee that involve is very high making sending money to oversea very expensive. To overcome this, banks do their customized arrangement with banks that have great relationship with them in different countries to send money straight to these banks and avoid going through swift where it is costly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But making these kinds of arrangement is not easy. Different countries there are different banks and each banks' system might not be the same and so the cost to develop such system to handle multiple countries and different banks is very very high and so looking at the business perception, we should first think of how we can create business before even we put in too much money on it. But business view is always in the assumption before you really run it. Numbers are still numbers at the end without a very good implementation. Well, my job stuck here when we're thinking on the chicken and egg theory of which one should comes first. Invest first or business first? But without investing you might not have the business or maybe after you invest there isn't that much business to cover the expenses.....???

And they also realized that the product is not really ready for the market in term of the stability and technically working. So finally I decided to quit the job and look for new venture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After 1 months of seeking jobs, went to many interviews. Finally I think the position offered by CIMB Bank is quite interesting and quite challenging based on what they mentioned in the job description (we can't know the true working environment until we worked there right?).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll based in Plaza Damansara - Menara SBB (Southern Bank Berhad). I am quite familiar with that area because used to have meeting over there since when I was in-charge of Apple product in my previous employment, used to go to Apple Office over Plaza Damansara. I can say it is quite difficult to find parking and hope to check on it tomorrow on the parking earlier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will see how it goes since I've yet to read the whole offer letter as well. The offer letter will be send over to the office and I'll only be reading it on tomorrow morning. What I know is just the basic salary and dress code (haha!!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll see how it goes with this job. A new industry for me - banking. Hope I can do something different and together we grow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/SB1r82VpQtI/AAAAAAAAATE/hBCYXO8_34g/s1600-h/cimb_bank_logo.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/SB1r82VpQtI/AAAAAAAAATE/hBCYXO8_34g/s400/cimb_bank_logo.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196428238178042578" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

There is this free player similar functionality with Winamp called TTPlayer. With it, you could use it as a tools for you to train yourself at home singing Karaoke because it will automatically download the lyrics based on your mp3's file name and then highlight the sentence during singing just like you're singing in any Redbox or Neway Karaoke. Very nice and user friendly.

There are things like list down what you're interested in doing? Whether its sports or events. Then later find out what skills that the thing that interest you brings to you. Whether it is transferable skills or self management skills. Then list a set of jobs that can fit in well in term of salary, working environment and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ya ya. I am stuck in this part. I know how to identify but there just not that easy to find a job that can match your skills unless you're preparing to wait for the job to appear and starve to death before that. I've been looking into all the job sites and newspaper to look for a job that is suitable for me. I can say not that easy. Most of the time during these period, a lot of your friends or relatives who before that told you that they've plenty of jobs looking for people will suddenly out of jobs. And companies that you think of entering don't offer what you expect or they don't offer the position you're looking for. It is hard!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Counsellor back in college will tell us all the theories but they just can't make the job there for you right? GOD HELP. I believe my skills and i believe my ability, i just need an opportunity, thats all...

I can see that starting the year 2008, Local car manufacturer are coming back with lots of improvement which is a good sign for all the Malaysians who did actually love local products (those like me who has no budget on expensive model will definitely hope for a cheaper yet good looking car from Protona and Perodua)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes.

The Kembara will not be a high volume seller for them.&lt;br /&gt;Just a recap - the Daihatsu Bego or Toyota Rush that the new Perodua Kembara replacement is expected to be based on is powered by a 1.5 liter DVVT engine, similiar to the unit in the Toyota Avanza 1.5.

Not really on the design sometimes, is all just about the brand brand brand. That is why until now I am still using my very lovely Seiko which I think is good enough for a rough man like me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never really knew this was coming. After the &lt;a href="http://www.pradaphonebylg.com/"&gt;LG Prada&lt;/a&gt;, then &lt;a href="http://www.armanisamsungphone.com/"&gt;Armani Samsung&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.apple.com/iphone"&gt;Apple iPhone&lt;/a&gt; Now it is turn for a watch premium brand to come up with its own mobile phone. Seems like everyone is thinking to get a stake out of this big cake of mobile phone market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/SAa7bFb9BRI/AAAAAAAAASk/8I1lv2V7xYk/s1600-h/4-16-08-tag-heuer-meridiist.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/SAa7bFb9BRI/AAAAAAAAASk/8I1lv2V7xYk/s400/4-16-08-tag-heuer-meridiist.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190041694581359890" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Of course, looking at the design I was like .."urrrggggg". What kind of designer would design such an awful product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Reportedly, the handset was indeed developed &lt;a href="http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/11/27/tag-heuer-teaming-with-modelabs-for-branded-phones/"&gt;in partnership with Modelabs&lt;/a&gt;, and beyond the all-metal casing, you can also expect a sapphire crystal screen, 2-megapixel camera, multimedia player, 1.9-inch QVGA display, Bluetooth and a battery good for 7-hours of yappin' aimlessly about how pricey your new mobile is. Speaking of which, did we mention this prized piece will run you between €3,400 ($5,420) and €3,900 ($6,216), depending on customizations. (&lt;a href="http://www.engadget.com/"&gt;engadget.com&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; That is the price to pay!!!

What do you think is the thing the current world most afraid of?? Jobless??? Dumped by lovers?? Bankrupt? WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the 21st Century, more than 50% of the people most afraid to have lost their mobile phone. Funny? I don't think so. It is shown in an article that half of the people around the world have a phobia of losing their own mobile phone. So are you one of these people? You might feel relieve after knowing that half the people around the world is just same as me but don't get happy so early.&lt;br /&gt;There is another report which shows that since people are so afraid of can't get in touch with others. They've tend to on their phone 24 hours a day (I am one of those) and it brings impact to health problem because of the radiation comes from the mobile phone. Read more on &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_radiation_and_health"&gt;WiKi regarding this matter.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And since the number of mobile phone users is like triple of the total smokers in the world, mobile phone also kills more than cigarette. (I bet you didn't know mobile phone kills that much of people) when all the time the media and government tell us not to smoke, they did not control on how phone maker manufacture the phone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But for me. Just like any other smokers. We can't just get rid of mobile phone right? Just remember, if possible just try to put it further from you when you're sleeping.

REST IN PEACE</title><content type="html">My second aunt just passed away yesterday. The day before I was still in the hospital to visit her and she is still conscious. I remember the last few words she said to me was "I am very hot, I feel so warm here (in the hospital)" and she said that she is getting difficult to breath. Although the hospital had provided her with oxygen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her heart starting to break down the only left 20% of the function which the doctor is planning to wait for a surgery once her condition get well. However, her condition did not turn well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And on the 1st April 2008 (April's fool) is the day she continue her journey in another dimension.&lt;br /&gt;Hope she could rest in peace!! I sincerely apologize for whatever I did not done well during her time here with us.

But you know? Most of the things still need patient because there are many things that cannot just have results in a blink of an eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I plan to search in the web to see how to cure this "patient" thing. I found out that there are many steps that people on the website are willing to share. After reading, I think that those are just whole bunch of craps. Doesn't help at all. One thing that I thing help is to make yourself loss focus on what you think you can't wait for... Ya.. that helps..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I am waiting for a phone call and can't wait longer, I just make myself focus on something else. Slowly, I find myself not thinking hard on that same thing again and again...

The ideas of the product is so brilliant. In one single box, you can actually used for multipurpose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put in a 3G sim card where you can get HSDPA network (up to 3.6Mbps from &lt;a href="http://www.celcom.com.my/"&gt;Celcom&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.maxis.com.my/"&gt;Maxis&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.u.com.my/"&gt;U-Mobile&lt;/a&gt;). The product will becomes a internet gateway + router where you can share your broadband connection out through the build in WiFi. This will be the first features - Share your wireless broadband. Unlike other USB HSDPA modem where you can only use for a single PC/ Laptop. This is more useful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other than that, it can become your office phone. Not only one phone but with multiple extension (like intercom within your small office). Isn't that great? You can do free intercom and these extension can do outgoing call through GSM call. You can also have auto attendant to help pick up the call and transfer let the person to leave down message, dial an extension.  The second features of the product - IP-PBX&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SMS. SMS has becoming one of the powerful tools for business and many of the business does not know how to adopt this powerful features. You can't just save all your business partners in the phone and use your mobile phone to send out SMS all the time? That just don't feel right. Ok. This product can share the application out. When you connect to this product using the WiFi, you can actually use it's built-in web based application to send SMS, delayed SMS, group SMS. Save your appointments, meetings, phone books, to-do list and other useful features in the box. It will remind you by sending you SMS or email on your appointment. Isn't that great?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not only that, you can even plug a USB printer and it will auto configure itself to be used by all the client who connects to it. Becoming a print server.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you heard of something like this, you'll feel that it is really a powerful product but I just don't feels like I'm having confident to the product. I can't force myself to just sell the item because I know the problem behind it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 3.6Mbps speed sounds fascinating but it has a quota set by the Telco limited to each line on 3GB / month. Not only that, the speed is on a best basis which means it is not going to reach 3.6Mbps somehow. For me, I'd never tried on more than 500Kbps. Even streamyx will have a slightly stable and a guarantee of 75% of the speed, but not on the 3G broadband. 500Kbps some more you'll have to share with your office colleagues and with a quota limitation. How can you expect the performance to be at a reasonable standard?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second thing. Yes, it can have multiple extension but there is only 1 incoming call and 1 outgoing call at a time which is a very limitation compared to the current PBX where it can support multiple lines. If such expensive item can support up to 15 - 20 users where all are only sharing for 1 line then it is a bit of unacceptable. But if you said the item support only 5 users then there is no need to use such expensive item. Either way, our product is in a Grey area of both the usage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third thing. Yes the most important thing is the stability. The product still not stable and our development teams can't manage to know what problems is it. It hangs sometimes and it works find sometimes. But sometime it hangs quite often (every 20 - 30 minutes). REMEMBER!!! if the product hangs that means you're no longer having internet connection, you can't make calls and receive calls, you can't print or send SMS or even access the box. You'll have to restart the whole box and wait for 1 minute at least for it to recover. But if it happens to often, you won't be able to finish even your email download.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last thing, the print server. I don't think it works anyway. You can plug in a printer but you'll never be able to use the printer. That is a big issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just can't convince myself knowing all these problems but remain to convince customers to buy and say that it is super stable and reliable. I am so confuse now!!! If I leave the company, I am just another jerk who doesn't have patient to hold long and if I stay, I'll have to sell this piece of product......What will you do???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/R-nqb11rClI/AAAAAAAAAR8/h_7pVx76uL8/s1600-h/msn-confuse.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_7yNU5h_wO9M/R-nqb11rClI/AAAAAAAAAR8/h_7pVx76uL8/s400/msn-confuse.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181930610296031826" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

It  is like driving a car. Once you have learnt how to, and practiced enough, your  subconscious takes over and does the work without you having to consciously go  through the routine.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;Try to adopt it so that we will  breed happy customers and improve bottom line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:10;"  &gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Maybe some of you can understand what it means but for me it is so complicated.&lt;br /&gt;A simple decision can be made through forward and backward planning. This is how it goes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Say you're in a mid of thinking whether you should continue your studies or you have to accept a job right away which offer quite attractive remuneration. Think again carefully what you wish to achieve in your life (maybe 10 years down the road or 20 years down the road). You maybe seeing yourself as a successful manager in a big multi national company which handle more than 5 countries in an IT industry. You drive a BMW and have a house in Bangsar having a wonderful family with 3 kids.&lt;br /&gt;At this point of time you maybe earning like RM50k/ month and having some property.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So think backward, how do you achieve your status in such a moment, you'll at least have to be very experience in the IT industry. You maybe need a qualification in order to reach that point?&lt;br /&gt;Slowly think back in 10 years where were you? You maybe still working hard and get the network you need. You maybe changing from your previous company where you think it does not comply with your future. And soon, you can imagine do you need your current study in order to reach that point or it is more important to get into the job right away and get the exposure you need.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course like the first method, the more you use and more it is recorded in your sub-conscious and sooner, you'll find yourself very effective in making decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no right or wrong way. Somehow, it is just a way to help you make your decision. Either choices can bring you to success and failures which is so much depends on how you actually use the choices you make at the first point as a journey of success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about it..

Everyone not only the candidates but all the voters can't wait to see all the results during the election day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course this is my first time voting and as a responsible Malaysian, I have to make sure that the future of our country really improve by real figures and not in the mouth of the stupid politicians where sometimes they not even know what they're talking about. Of course not every politicians are the same, there are a few of them who are responsible on what they do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The results of the election is much surprise and fill with joy that all Malaysians actually know what is happening in the country and wish for a change for a better future not only for themselves but also for their next generation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess the current government should really examined what went wrong from the pass 4 years in since the last election. But most of the problems came from only a few people in the very high ranking positions, they're selfish and ruining the country where the country suppose to be a prosperous and peaceful place for all race and religion (at least that is what I am think when I was young) until now that I am really angry on what is going on in the government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHANGE THAT PLEASE...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FOR MORE INFORMATION REGARDING THE LATEST RESULTS PLEASE DO SURF THE SITE BELOW:&lt;br /&gt;http://pru12.spr.gov.my/spr/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the new parliamentary and state assemblies.

Have all of you know who to vote? My opinion is the current government really do need some change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently heard a lot of BARISAN NATIONAL'S advertisement. Do all of you agree with what they claimed to be? I personally do not agree. One of the advertisement in my fm mentioned that under the rulling of BN, the crime rate has been reduce a lot and the places has becoming more peaceful. Another one mention that the price of road tax came down and it helps on economic stability and the people are enjoying good economic benefits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ENOUGH!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People in the country has becoming clever and no longer be fool by these kind of lies. The road tax had went down but tons of stuff went up on price which is resulting the big inflation in malaysia. Also crime rate, maybe small part of place went down but a lot more places went up. I don't know they're really too naive or they think all people are non educated to put up these advertisement. Weird!!&lt;p&gt;Ken Wei&lt;/p&gt;

It has been a nightmare thinking of the assignment every day and night. Still another assignment to go (the final one) before going to final exam.&lt;br&gt;I look at my exam timetable just now, really don&amp;#39;t understand this unitesity. &lt;p&gt;They know we&amp;#39;re working and they know we study part time because of this but still, they always like to arrange the exam during our working hour.  Two hours is a lot and i don&amp;#39;t know how to take leave. Taking leave in a newly join company? Not a wise choice i guess!

What is actually real? Do what we see or what we listen is real?&lt;br /&gt;If we see something that happen in front of us, do we judge it as real?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;REAL is actually a very mysterious "term". We only think it is real is because we believe it is real.&lt;br /&gt;When your friend tell you something, you think it would be real because you believe in your friend. On the other hand if the same thing mentioned to you by another guy where you hate a lot, that "real" become "fake" or "lies".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend can tell a "lies" to you. Saying that he was born in the year 1979 but that is not the actual year of birth. He registered it as 1979 and he even show you the Identification card that mentioned 1979 as the year of his birth. You believe that it is impossible for it to be unreal and this makes you entering into the virtual "real" where you think is real and everyone else think is real too where in reality it actually don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This virtual "real" will soon become "real" because too many people saying it is real.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This conclude that the "real" here is actually how you make all people think that is real and how all the people support and have absolutely no doubt that there is anything wrong with the "real" then you've success to make the virtual real into "real".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tell me now.
