Rate your lovemaking with iPhone

So are you a better lover than your friends? Given a scale of 10, most people would probably rate themselves, say.. 8/10 … err, well, maybe at least 6 — yeah, the usual average number: that’s only because we are being humble, aren’t we? Why cant we scientifically answer this question? Now we can! In [...]

Canon EFS 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM (again!)

Just got a replacement lens over the weekend (yes, we had one but was lost). After about a year of not using any WA lens, the excitement when toying around with this new piece is worthy of a gadget blog entry. Some specs: • Focal Length & Maximum Aperture: 10 – 22mm; 1:3.5-4.5 • Lens Construction: 13 [...]

Yours truly, multimedia center.

A gadget we found while scouring an IT Mall in Singapore. Among the few things this blackbox can do: We can now record Astro programs automatically — yes, it enables scheduled recording. You do not need to buy the costly Astro MAX (RM 900++ if you already have astro. Or new subscribers will have to part [...]

Nokia N97 5mp camera

Ok — a quick post to share the performance of N97’s camera. Did we tell you that N97 has a 5-megapixel autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar optics and sports a double LED flash.. Again, we love the high-end looking plastic cover that slides very pleasantly. It’s catchy for a camera lens cover! We didnt go into [...]

Our WIFI Booster

Both boosters is now attached to the WIFI antennas

Ever since we setup a wifi router in the living room, the two rooms at the long corner of the house have been sufferring from not-so-good wifi signal. From our reading (yes, wo do read!) both rooms were having RSSI signal value of below -70 dbm which is considered really poor. So, finally  today, after looking [...]

XBOX360 with a new interface!

When we started xbox360 today and signed in to xbox360 live, there was a system message saying that there is a console: so as usual, we just clicked OK to download. The download takes about 20 minutes on a 1mbps streamyx connection — which was unusually long especially since we did not know that these updates [...]

How many cats can fit in a 1 terabyte?

So how many cats can you fit inside one terabyte hard disk? We got one — Lemon the cat, was so eager to explore a new byte-size home. This is a 1 TB external HDD with USD2.0 connectivity from Western Digital, purchased over the weekend in KL. Hmm.. if you are an mp3 collector, typically a [...]
