Down with Food Poisoning

admin — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 14:37:39 +0000

Sharks, I don’t know what have I munched to suffer a day on bed and have 13 runs in toilet plus vomitting. Count that lucky on the 3rd day of Lunar New Year.

To make it worst, there are no clinics islandwide opened to attend to patients like me, so in the end I went to Tan Tock Seng (TTS) A&E Clinic.

The service rendered by the TTS has improved over the years, shorten waiting time, more efficient service and process flow. Of course, not forgetting about inflation, now it cost $85.

Given a choice, I definitely won’t want to admit to hospital as I really hate to see needles poking into my body… Give me creeps…

Trying out New Milk Tea

After a long afternoon looking at the books, I decided to pop by 7-eleven.

Browsing through the drink section, a new nice drink packaging from Taiwan caught my attention, it’s Belgium Chocolate Milk Tea. The packaging definitely stands out from the typical rest. In addition, there is a cute cartoon strip by the side of the bottle.

LG GM730

As I am Starhub Hubber, I get to change mobile phone annually.

After browsing through the models, I decided to get LG GM730 (LG JOY), which runs on Windows Mobile 6.1. It has wide 3” LCD panel that enhance surfing,
touch screen interactivity.

The features of LG Joy as follow:

Connectivity: 3G/HSDPA/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
GPS
5MP Camera
LG S-Class UI (A Home Screen Widget built on Windows Mobile)
Display: 240×400pixels, 3”/ 65K Colors/ TFT Screen
Memory: Micro-SD up to 16GB

As I was a previous Windows Mobile user, I realised that the common thing that does not change through the versions is Windows Mobile still hang easily; to make it worst, I need to hard reset the device.

Comparing it with other Windows Mobile device, it is quite responsive when interacting with its UI. It provides quite a wide set of applications including MS Office Mobile and widgetized Calendar, Email and Messages.

One cool features I like about windows mobile is its multi-tasking capability, I realised that iPhone OS cannot multi-task, not sure about Android though.

Funny but true, a stolen Android phone helps the police to apprehend one of the thieves. As the thief is trying out the camera feature of the phone, what’s unknown to them is one of the stolen Android has a free widget Lookout that synchronises all the photos taken in the phone to a the owner’s accessible server every night. Thus, based on the photos taken, the police is able to catch the suspects. Another proven case of gadgets outwitting man.
