Blackberry Playbook Review

The Blackberry Playbook has a catchy name.  It has a favorable size, but reviews online suggest that it is an unfinished product.  Whether this reviews are true is yet to be decided, but it seems that the tablet market is getting overcrowded nowadays with almost every mobile phone and computer producer trying to capture their share of the market.

Nokia-Microsoft Tie Up.

Surely you've already digested the fact that Microsoft is now basically married to Nokia, and they have already planned a new line of products under their belt to recapture the smartphone market.  With Symbian OS burried, and the birth of Windows 7 phones under Nokia's well known phone, I remain skeptical that this new 'marriage' will work at all, especially since I personally consider Nokia not one of the top mobile brands anymore.

Anyway, what makes me wonder is why most people hate the bits of Microsoft.  In this 'marriage', the main displeasure is about Microsoft, and not Nokia... but what's wrong with Microsoft?

Is this a case of human jealousy? You tell me...

New prefix comes with 8 numbers

The SKMM announced that there will be a new pre-fix for all mobile operators soon, which is 011.  According to details released, only numbers with this new prefix will have 8 numbers making it a combination of 3+8 numbers.  There is no specialty on this new move/number, except it would take you more effort to remember your buddies numbers which start with the prefix 011.

As for the rest of the prefixes (010, 012, 013, 014, 017, 018, 019), there will be no change in the number, and all benefits and services are as it is.

Time Broadband Packages

Time Broadband looks set to give other broadband providers a run with their money as they introduce their Time Fibre Broadband. The broadband is said to be running on TIME's state of-the-art fibre optic network which they claim to feature blazing download and upload speeds so you can chat, share files, watch high definition videos and do practically everything you've always wanted to do online, minus the lagging and waiting. According to reports, TIME's Broadband is capable of offering 50Mps access, which is much faster than the current 1Mbps provided by their rivals.  This makes TIME's Broadband the fastest in the country.  Packages on this new broadband can be seen below.

Previously, TIME also offered the standard ADSL Broadband at the below packages.

Unfortunately though, both of the packages do seem a little bit expensive if compared to rival local providers., and coverage is limited to certain areas in the peninsular at the moment. For more information, click here to go to the official website of Time Fibre Broadband.
