WELCOME TO NOKIA WORLD 09: PART ONE

What do you think? Nokia is coming out with possibly the greatest idea they ever have - that is to make a notebook PC form of their product. This mark the first time Nokia will produces a laptop in their profoundable history in mobile phone history. But bear in mind, Nokia is no Sony, whom the latter has most experiences and expertise to invent such PC, but it was Nokia whom first tried it out.

Fresh from Stuggart, Germany was the Nokia World 2009 convention which was held on September 2 ago. What was more shimmering for them than to showcase their latest range of products that we can expect anytime soon during the last quarter of the year.

Booklet 3G Netbook




This is what I mean by the PC form of a mobile phone. Powered by Atom processor and 10.1-inch display, integrated 3G wireless and a hot-swappable SIM card. It looks to be running Windows 7, has integrated A-GPS with a copy of Ovi Maps, HDMI output, a rated 12 hour battery life, and the usual Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity, all in a 2cm (.78 inch), 2.7lb aluminum body that's understated, sophisticated, and should make most Nokia fans very happy.

N97 Mini



This is the smaller version of their summer 'not-so-hit' smart phone, N97. During my last post about smart phones, it seems that N97 has lost in most and important aspects to Apple's iPhone 3GS and HTC Magic. It still packs 8GB of storage, a 3.2-inch touchscreen and full QWERTY keyboard into its 14.2mm thin frame. It's also the first Nokia device to sport Lifecasting with Ovi - a new partnership with the world's largest social network, Facebook. Up to 12 days standby time are on offer and up to 28 hours music playback (in offline mode). The 5-megapixel camera comes with dual LED flash and video light, along with a Carl Zeiss Tessar lens.

Nokia N900



Nokia is searching for a redemption following minor failure of N97. If you are so keen in getting N97, I suggest you to wait for this, N900. It has a 3.5 inch touch-screen, powered by a 600MHz ARM Cortex-A8 with a massive 1GB memory and 32GB internal storage. Of course, it is fueled with integrated GPS, 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and personalized QWERTY keyboard that fits into your hand. Nokia N900 comes with a pre-loaded Ovi Maps and RSS Reader if you are into blogging. Looks like this will beat the hell of N97.

There is more to come on Nokia World '09. Second part, we will look at more new Nokia products! With them, see you!! For more info and as well the resources of this post are obtained from NOKIAN900 and ConversationsNokia.

WHY CAN'T WE DO OUR JOB PROPERLY?


Now, let me ask you an important question - How many times that your work cannot be completed on time because the group you are in is such de-motivating and non-sense? De-motivating that the attitude of the other members are so jerking and annoying. This couple with how non-sense certain quarter can come out with some ridiculous ideas that contribute nothing into the task force.

Well, if you have been experiencing it, whether you are or not as the same kind of person been described - or you knew someone within your group are such a jerk...FEAR NOT because you are not the only one with this situation heavily on your shoulder.

Some says that there is something wrong with the way Malaysians do works. This probably due to:
1) Everyone keeps pointing finger at each other when things are not going into plan - you know blaming other
2) Everyone seems not interested in giving out a proper and well-constructed idea, instead those ridiculous one
3) Everyone do not like to do the task heart-fully instead they like to do things in what Malaysian called "selamba" - enough to finish the work while neglecting aspects of quality and quantity
4) Everyone seems more interested to protect or denying their own involvement on certain things
5) Everyone just can't do things in efficient way or so

Tell me, it was not hard to make a job done well. You need to commit yourself into the group work and then, things will lead you to the goals.

Before I end, I would like to share you this:

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE MATCHDAY 4

This is last week's EPL result and I have to say Liverpool escaped another humiliation. I wonder what people are suggesting Mr Rafael Benitez will do? Say bye bye to Anfield or continue this kind of form?

Obviously Manchester United benefited from a precious victory against The Gunners. Thanks to Diaby's mistake by netting the ball into own net, it could have been a point a piece for both.

THE SHAME OF THIS DUDE

If you have followed the local news recently, I am sure we all have heard of the issue. This conclude what I am about to say. You ready? It is a shame that the MCA (Malaysian Chinese Association), the oldest Chinese-based political party in Malaysia is again rocked by the internal issues.

Not long ago, there was MCA A and MCA B teams throwing plastic chairs and exchanging abusive words among each other. That was when Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik was the president. The issues was none other than lack of understanding between president and deputy president.

That was a decade ago but history tends to get repeated again and again.

In 2009, we have another crisis looming and ruining the credibility of MCA yet again.

It all started when this dude was captured having SEX with some woman. Those savoring moments ended up in a DVD and widely distributed early 2008. He was the vice president back then and how Malaysian celebrated the New Year of 2008 was by accepting the confession made by he himself, admitting that he was the person featured in a sensational sex DVD that was widely being circulated in Johor. So, he quited all posts within the party and cabinet.

October last year, this dude in the meanwhile won the president post by beating the other opponent - Datuk Dr Chua Jui Meng. He was the top and the earlier dude also made an amazing political comeback by winning the deputy president post by beating then secretary-general Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan - proving otherwise that his popularity remained high.

But those were history and quickly last months, two separated events but pretty much related to each other occured and again the boat of MCA was heading for a split yet again.

FIRST - The "Edison" dude was removed from his deputy president post for allegedly tarnishing the party’s image over the disclosure in late 2007 of a secret recording showing him engaging in sex acts with his mistress - which is BULLSHIT and NOT AT THE RIGHT TIMING TO DO AS WELL.

SECOND - The "KingPin" was accused of receiving donation money of RM 10 million in three separate cash installments by Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing, CEO of Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd as "donation" while the deputy CEO Datuk Faisal Abdullah also said in the same report that Ong had used the company’s private jet five times, incurring fuel and other expenses amounting to US$40,000 which Ong admitted.

SO WHAT NOW?

Some ask the "KingPin to step down while he himself is trying his best to defend his right, probably will be holding an EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING in within 30 days. What is the point? Even his rival-"Edison"s supporter are asking him to abdicate as well.

Who ever is true or not is no longer a matter. The point is you are tarnishing the credibility of MCA which I never cared for my whole life. Since MCA is like the image symbol of the Chinese community in Malaysia, I felt insulted that such peoples are loitering around - what a disgrace!

Another drama or not - it still shows those goons will never changed. The same fact goes to those cronies within the BN as well - and I assumed that every goon on that "weight-leveller' party is just as corrupted as each other. Money, money, money - all about money but it never been used in a proper way.

WELL, SHAME ON YOU!!!!
