Edition 270 – Back In Singapore

I’m back in Singapore. Seriously, the amount of force required to overcome the inertia of coming back to work is tremendous. But it has been overcome. And I’m back to work, and spending lots of time catching up on work backlog.

Parents are with me in Singapore for a week. It’s great to be able to spend time with them, albeit only in the evenings. But for a person who doesn’t see his parents every single day of the week, it’s a good plus. Love my parents tonnes. 🙂

Gadget temptation rant coming up and you’ve been fairly warned. While I was in Malaysia, there have been large full-page ads in the local newspapers for the new Blackberry Bold. Man, it looks good and sleek. Very very tempted to switch over to the Blackberry. But looks like I’ll have to wait for the next generation of the Blackberry as I’m tied to the iPhone at the moment. Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

Speaking about the iPhone, it’s been working out well for me. Things missed are the ability to forward SMS, no MMS and the pretty soft ringing volume. It also seems that I’ve been overly cautious with my data usage. The plan comes bundled with 1GB of data and I’ve barely scratched 20MB for this month. So I’m going to experiment and see how far I can go. All in all, not too bad of a phone. But there are some features missed.

Also, for those of you trying out the new browser by Google, called Chrome, this site works fine with that browser. If you do see any problems, do tag me or leave a comment and I will look into it.

That’s all for now folks. Until the next time, cheers… :Þ
