M1 iPad data plan? Think again. (4)


    July 22nd, 2010 | Tags: , | Posted in Life, Tech

    With the Apple iPad releasing in a couple of hours in Singapore. Telcos are dishing out iPad data plans to complement the iPad WiFi + 3G model. Users save the hassle of cutting their regular SIM card into microSIM.

    M1 is offering iPad data plans with speed up to 7.2Mbps. A speed I have never obtained during my 2 years of M1 7.2Mbps data plan subscription. Even with 7.2Mbps capable devices, the speed pales in comparison with my old Singtel 2Mbps Mobile on Broadband service! For my case, it seems like M1 is tagging a speed which it is not obtainable, be it in the day or at night, in the west or in the east, in the north or in the south of Singapore. Must as well M1 say Mobile Broadband speed up to 1000Mbps right?

    So M1 iPad data plan? Think again. Think carefully before signing on the dotted line.

    Lovely Lory at Jurong Bird Park
    Lovely Lory at Jurong Bird Park

    I think the last time I been to the Jurong Bird Park was during my primary school days. The park back then had less exhibits and shows.

    Jurong Bird Park is definitely much more interesting now. Activities such as Lory feeding and photography with the parrots made the park experience much more interactive.

    Went down to Jurong Bird Park with Serene’s family yesterday. Totally enjoyed the outing with them! Fed the Lories at the Lory Loft, took pictures at the man-made waterfall, and got real close with the birds.

    Been to the Night Safari last week, Jurong Bird Park yesterday. What’s next?

    Great camera pouch for S90 (6)


    June 28th, 2010 | Tags: , | Posted in Reviews

    The Canon PowerShot S90 camera pouch I bought budgetgadgets.com is fantastic! The S90 is more manageable during outings now. Previously I had to keep the S90 in my bag or pants pocket or even worst – hold in my hands. Now? Just sling it across my body and walk around. 2 free hands and camera within reach to capture that special moment.

    The tripod mount at the bottom piece holds the Canon S90 securely to the pouch. So don’t worry about the camera dropping out of the pouch if you decide to lug it around without the top flap. Yes, the top flap is detachable.

    You might want to change the strap to some tougher alternatives. The strap that comes with it looks a little flimsy and mine is slightly worn after using it for a while. Overall, it is a good camera pouch! If you decide to get one too, check out the product link: Canon Digital Camera Hard Leather Case Bag Pouch S90.

    Canon S90 camera pouch arrived! (1)


    May 31st, 2010 | Tags: | Posted in Life, Reviews

    My camera pouch arrived after approximately 9 days! As mentioned earlier, found this camera pouch on budgetgadgets.com. The quality is better than I had expected.


    The pieces are nicely stitched together. The insides are lined with a layer of softer leather to protect the camera from shock. The screw at the bottom holds the Canon S90 to the pouch. Well, with this pouch,you need to remove the pouch base before you can change your battery or memory card. But who cares? Being able to sling your camera while touring around is more important. Time to sling my S90 around to take pictures!
