Up next Nokia

Most of you might have already heard that the Nokia is releasing a new phone which plays as an attempt to challenge the Iphone. The new Nokia is called 5800 xpress Music.

It does have quite an attractive interface

I’m not the one to judge but I think is the latest Nokia just might stand the chance. First thing first, I need to get my hands on one of these bad boys then I’ll let you all know. I heard some where that the shipment for this phone is delayed and I haven’t really seen it around any of the retailers. No commercials or advertisements either. I wonder what Nokia might be waiting for? Bugs maybe????

Anyways, the best way to get more information is to visit there site for a more up close and personal look at the Nokia 5800 xpress.

Spending you wad online

Hi everyone,

I just thought I share with my fellow Hong Kongers something I found on the internet that can be quite useful. I’m originally from the U.S. and miss many things back home. It is quite frustrating when you find something you want on the internet but cannot get it because they don’t ship to Hong Kong.

Well, I have finally found a site that let’s you do just that and not only do they let you purchase things from the states, they actually give you a U.S. address so that the product is sent to that U.S. address and directly reroute the product to you in Hong Kong. I was browsing through some site called lifestyle.hk and found an ad called onenow.com now I don’t have to bother my friends and family back home to buy me things that I can’t get in HK.

I think is pretty cool that this exist, and to think, the whole 3 years I’ve been in HK and have not found this site. I think your family and friends back home will really appreciate this site as well, now they don’t have to bother with your annoying wants.

One time I forgot about the time difference between HK and U.S and boy were they mad when I woke them up at 4 in the morning, lol.

Well the down side of this is that not all merchants are signed on to this site (apple)

Damn.

Anyways it’s still pretty useful so it’s cool

It's all you need to buy shit from the states

One note I must make though, they have 2 different ways of charging you one is called Payforme and the other is called deliverforme I suggest the deliver for method so you don’t have to pay so much and look for merchants that ship free in the U.S.

Trust me, you’ll save more and avoid paying for additional “unnecessary” charges.

Will the X1 be able to compete?

Sony Ericsson Xperia

Sony Ericsson Xperia

 

For all the mobile phone tech fans that have been waiting for the next phone to compete with the astounding technology and userfriendly interface of the iphone. Another challenger is here.

Sony Ericsson came out with the X1(xperia). The slick Arc Slider design is sure going to make mobile text messaging and web surfing a bit easier. People always wants to feel what they are pushing as a confirmation that the button pushed is actually pushed. The x1 might be what you are looking for.

There are some video clips and commercials that you can check out for this phone which I find it kinda cool. Just ask yourself one question after viewing. If it was really done who’s going to clean it up?

Check it out for yourself and leave me a comment:>

This is definitely a phone worth exploring. One of the things that Sony ericsson may be lacking is building up the hype. Think they may change that? Let’s give it some time and see what they do.
