My new gadgets

Sighz... its 1.49am and i am still awake... this is very bad... once again, i'm overwhelmed by my new gadgets and I am not sleeping... I think this is definitely not the first time that this has happened to me... arghz...

I just purchased numerous gadgets and I am still trying to figure out their uses. Here are the items that I have purchased:

1) 1 x 160gb Hardisk @ S$152
2) 1 x Microphone Earpiece @ S$12
3) 1 x Bluetooth device (with a freaking CD that has virus) @ S$10
4) 1 x 1gb microsd card with miniSD and SDcard adapters @ S$16+

I wun behave like the authors of bimbo blogs and start showing you pictures of these items but i guess the most impt lesson is that, i spent the whole nite (i.e. from 8pm till NOW) to configure all this... I have just transferred all my stuff from my 80gb hardisk to the new 160gb hardisk. The old hardisk has quite a lot of problems with some data already unrecoverable. Worst still, the hardisk is not reformatable... i've tried tons of ways (including going to dos-prompt to manually format using "format i: /FS:NTFS /Q") and it din work... anyone care to enlighten me?

As for my earpiece, i'm proud to say that it is a good buy (all hail to China's low cost production). It fits well around my ears and gave me very clear communications via skype with May. (yes i did a test comms with may using skype). This will probably be one of my most valuable asset in the states. For those who still want to chat with me on the phone, you can go buy a mic and earphone and we can chat via skype. The funny part is that while we were shopping for the earpiece, we happen to find a similar product that costs only S$3 more. It really looks like a bluetooth earpiece. Let's take a look:


If you take a look at the reverse description, it says, "bluetooth shape headphone". Wah lauz... best... this is how they bluff people... it is freaking wired and definitely not bluetooth.

The bluetooth device helps me connect my phone to my laptop. It helps me to syncro information and most imptly, i'm downloading a presenter software so that i can control my laptop using my phone! wow! haha... of course, the microsd card is for the phone so that i can store my MP3 and new programs.

All right... that's it for now... back to installing!!!
