Why Android and the NOT iOS?

I was actually contemplating getting the ipad3 when it comes to the stores. What changed my mind? I've talked to a friend and he convinced me how good/powerful the Transformer was as compared to the ipad.

Personally, I think the ipad is a wonderful machine. Especially if you do not intent to fool around much with the operating system. On the other hand, Android operating system allows you for more flexibility if you are one who likes to "hack" into stuff.

I am still learning the android system. So far it has been fun. BTW, I also owned a China Pad. comes with Android 2.1 but was pretty awful to use. The touchscreen sensitivity is horrible. Fortunately, I was successful in upgrading it to Android 2.2 a.k.a. Froyo a couple of days back. The sensitivity of the screen is much improved. However I am unable to sign-in with my google account. Why?? Only time and more hacking will tell.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer (TF101)

This is my new toy. It's an Android Tablet Computer. What makes it stand out amongst other tablet in the market is it's keyboard dock!

New Toy

Watch out for this space....

My new toy is coming ........

unifi

My unifi system is all set up and running. One would normally ask, "How is it? Fast?" It is still too soon to call for verdict but so far so good is all I can say. Check out below:-

Ok? Acceptable? I am enjoying clear TV reception anyways.... hahahahahah!!!

HSBB

Hi. Seems like I start every post with something along the line of "long time since last post". Well, it's true right? Anyway, I will be having my Unifi HSBB installed tomorrow. Maybe that would change the frequency of my post?? Or I could be too caught up with streaming. Nyak-nyak-nyak.

Will post up on the speed of the HSBB when all is properly set up.

So, until then...........

iPhone 4

It's out! It's out! The iPhone 4 by Apple is out!!!

It is about time especially with the "leaked" and the "stolen" iPhone 4G some not too long ago. All the specifications are as expected. No real surprise there but definitely an interesting toy to own.

Now, when will it arrive in Malaysia shores?? Hopefully the yellow telco will come out with an attractive package with it. Even an option for those whom have got the iPhone 3GS with DiGi (1 month plus ago) and locked with a 2 year contract :(

If not, then the bright side is, I would not be close to this iPhone 4 baby anytime soon.

Oh well, life's like that.....

For the time being, I look forward for a facelift to my iPhone 3GS with the coming OS4 update.

p.s. the iPad is REALLY a cool toy too don't you think???

iPhone OS, Android, Windows Mobile & Symbian

I have personally tried everyone of the OS stated in the title of this post except for the Android. In fact there was another - Palm - which I deliberately left out as it is already out of contention, I believe.

What would be your choice? I find the iPhone OS is very stable and user friendly. Looking at it reminds me too of the Palm platform which is kind of similar with the icons arranged in grids.

Windows mobile is actually quite good but one needs to be ready for it sometimes "hangs". Symbian too is decent but I have experience my phone "hanging" as well.

But to make a fair comparison, one needs to look into the hardware as well for newer gadgets would normally be using a faster processor.

These are my thought on the smartphone OS war.
