*256 - SciVerse ScienceDirect iPhone App

Yo! Been wanted to share this for quite sometime now... Was thinking to blog more since I acquired iBlogger app but somehow it didn't happen... Hmmm... Ok... I'm lazy :P

This will be a good news to all academic iPhone users... Or perhaps potential iPhone users too... In research, literature review plays a very major part... and I believe this addition to the wide range of iPhone apps indeed increases my iPhone value...

The new SciVerse ScienceDirect iPhone app is out! Best part bout it it's FOC!



"Need full-text but not at your desk? The SciVerse ScienceDirect iPhone app doesn't restrict your brainwaves to the workplace; now you can find and read any Elsevier article or book chapter while you're at a conference, travelling to and from work, or enjoying some rare downtime."



Without subscription, one shall only allowed to view a paper's abstract... but don't worry just yet... isn't ur institution subscripted to it?

What u need is just an email add under the institution's server domain... for UPM student, now u can finally visit to ur unknown or unused UPM email to access the subscription... go check out mutiara.upm.edu.my... u should have ur email of matricnumber@mutiara.upm.edu.my...



Now I understand the function of email provided by the institution... :)

*253 - I'm back! ... With The New iBlogger!

Anyway... This post is done on the new iBlogger app I'd just downloaded... Seems to work well till now... And hopefully this app will help me to provide live sharing anytime anywhere I am...

*212 - Restoran Darussalam, SS 15 Subang

Nice coming back after nearly a week abandoned my blog... However still screwed both of my papers today =.=

As u all should noticed, restaurant now use all kinds of high tech gadgets... Taking orders with PDA seems so common nowdays... I even saw a bluetooth portable receipt printer that can print receipt on the spot of payment in Ipoh's Bean Sprout Chicken Shop O.o i'll get u a photo next time if u havent saw before :D This time i'll intro u the "card paying" system...

Introducing Restoran Darussalam in SS 15 Subang... I went there for supper after my starbucks study session... My fren King intro me there...

He recommends me it's Nasi Lemak with Fried Chicken... actually he just ate =.= and having a 2nd round with me... I ordered it and indeed its nice... Way delicious...

When ordering we were given a numbered card... Its in the system already on wat we ordered... So we just hav to scan the card and pay the amount... Hard to cheat a roti telur with roti kosong nowadays :/

here's the card...

Hehe... just thought of sharing... something new to me :) And definitely u should try on this mamak!!

*192 - I got a DSLR !

Just came back from TTDI... a huge pile of boxes, manual and plastic bags on my dining table caught my attention...

OMG... i cant believe my dad just spent rm2k on a new DSLR... Its a Canon EOS 1000D...
Cant get my hands off it YET... LOL... Been dreaming a while to play a DSLR... Test a few shots in my room and its nice! Its just... Nice... how to describe?

*187 - Shii: The Wii for Women

Damn~ This is hilarious... and a bit of 18sx (warned ya ^^)

*166 - The Mirror Image CSL Phone!

Its CSL... The 1st local brand of handphone in Malaysia... So how proud of u on that?

Last year my dad bought a CSL phone for my youngest bro since its so cheap n yet full of features... Despite many times of factory visiting... The phone gave us something special... something... not really seen b4 in other phone though...

How good is that? Having a phone that shows "mirrored" screen... I'll say this is so damn cool! Imagine u reading ur msg on a mirror...

Best right?

Conclusion: NEVER buy CSL =.=

*129 - Why Own Something You Dont Need?

Introducing everyone the most CONTROVERSIAL item i ever owned in my life...
Nokia 2630 !!!

Since day 1 i bought this phone, i got plenty of comments on this matter... Some asked why buy such noob phone? Some said my status doesnt fit into this phone. Some even checked my body temperature in case im having fever when deciding upon this phone =.= Sadly, my parents also doubt that i can settle with this phone...

Since last sem... I realised tat i dont need a flashy handphone... I'd got an old O2 PDA to be my organiser... so I only need a phone tat can call, sms, and save all my contacts, that's all... Other accessories seems meaningless to me as i dont really use them... It seems unwise to pay for what you wont need even u can afford the extra... But i opt for a mp3 ringtoned phone though, just not to scare everyone when my phone rings :D

Used to own an Ipod Nano 3rd Gen... I sold it to my fren hastily last sem... This event actually made me aware of this big philosophy of life... Life can be simple, and many things u just dont really need...
Something to ask urself... Do u really need those bling bling ones? What is the benefit of your flashy cell phone? Do those gadgets bring more pros than cons? Food for thought, personal image and status arent measured by the gadgets u own...

*103 - Great News Feeds: Brain-controlled Wheelchair

A very good news to share to everyone... Toyota Motor Corps had developed a brain-controlled wheel chair in Japan...

The person in the wheelchair wears a cap that can read brain signals, which are relayed to a brain scan electro-encephalograph, or EEG, on the electrically powered wheelchair, and then analysed in a computer program.

This is a very very good news to the world and will help a lot of disabled people... Im impressed!

Wana see one in action? Check out this one developed by University of Zaragoza in Spain.

*59 - The CPU That I'd Been Dreaming For

During my schooling days when i was using a desktop, I used to think that why we need a CPU case if we can make it more "geeky" look by just leaving the CPU parts on a flat panel, like a table? Mayb we can put them on a sponge or something, integrate it with the table then i'll hav a Computer-in-the-table...

Cant believe it, someone made this dream come true !!! Dada~ the new Computer-IN-the-table...
(Source: popularmechanics.com)

Its liquid-cooled with half-gallon of glycol, twin 300GB VelociRaptor hard drives, a GeForce GTX 280 GPU, seven fans, a Sony Blu-ray drive, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 3GHz Core 2 Quad processor and won them a lot of attention to their coolest table ever. And for sure u cant get it from the Ikea.

PS: i hope they add a switch for the blue neon light ^^

*3 - New Interface for my O2 Stealth

Finally... found something very stunning for my depreciated O2 XDA Stealth... (2nd hand selling price RM600... Swt~)

I can say that for 1 year i had my Stealth, only now i truely enjoying a WM5 powered PDA... Hmmm... take a long time huh...

Firstly, im so free nowadays to read through every pages about WM5. Found a way of "hacking" the windows registry by using PHM registry edit to make my Stealth "write" chinese words... Spend my whole day to get this done. This is the page that i refered to, but i didnt use it's font though, i went to steal another better chinese font (copyrighted ones) ...


Poof~ My Stealth is displaying chinese SMS... wakaka :D ...


Next exciting modification i did to my Stealth is .... *drum roll~* The new PointUI Home (Point User Interface) ... Muahahahaha~ I dont need to fumble for a stylus anymore as Home is designed with generously sized finger friendly controls... It has intuitive controls and a highly responsive user interface... Somehow it has a iphone or ipod touch experience coz it uses slide navigation which i love a lot :)... using the featured Applet Ribbon ™... Clock (analog/digital), tasks, appointments, calendar and weather forecasts and current temperatures from yahoo can be easily reach... With so much feature n slick interface, so how much i'd paid for it ?? Answer is... FOC... what u need is a bit effort to search it from the internet... hehe... i attached a few screenshots of my Stealth for sharing :)



















*The "Home" screen. * Klang's weather (going to rain) *Power management *Contact Page












* My Applications * Wireless settings * Calls Registry (Lots of Ben's call)




Last but not least, the 3rd thing i added to my stealth is the S2P mp3 player... hehe... very nice interface indeed... does it look familiar to u? Yes... it's the ipod touch interface :) although not 100% the same... of course it also features slide nagivation, easy playlist management bla bla bla... I'll say the best mp3 player i had now... hehe

So what u think? Compare to my old WM5 interface, dull windows media player, and no chinese character displaying... It's a huge breakthrough for my O2 XDA Stealth :D

One word to describe all... EXCITED !!!
