Last Day at the Office '05

Okay this is my last day at the office for this year. I'll be off to Tagaytay till the December the 31st, then off to Hong Kong on January 1st to the 6th. There will be no internet connection in Tagaytay and I probably won't be spending HK$'s to get internet access in our flat in Hong Kong. So I might post using e-mail while I'm in Tagaytay [I'm sure it will be boring as hell... it always is]. Really torn about Hong Kong though... I'm thrilled that I will be able to go gadget shopping, plan to buy a new PPC/PE [probably a Qtek 9100 or Dopod 838], of course I'd have to get a new memory card [since the new PPC/PE I'm eyeing uses miniSD], I also plan to get a new Bluetooth Dongle [v2.0 standard] since my old MSI one really needs to be replaced [it's still Bluetooth v1.0], I also plan to buy a Stereo Bluetooth Headset. Wow! That is a lot [3 out of 5 of my Wishlist] I hope my budget fits.... Shit! I just realized my shopping list is a testament to my geekyness I have no plans to buy any clothes... well maybe a pair of jeans [it's been 7 months since I last bought a pair of jeans or any article of clothing for that matter :P]. Another thing is I'll be able to see my fave Hong Kong friend Cubie [ok you're my only Hong Kong friend... that automatically elevates you to my fave then ;-) hehehe]. Also psyched about the food! I love the food in Hong Kong! IMO, Cantonese cuisine is one of the best among the Chinese cusines... The downside of going to HK is our flat is so small and we will be 8 people [geeez! I wonder how we will fit] we'll also be staying for more than 4 days... too long IMO [really afraid to run out of cash hehehe]. Oh yeah I have to buy gifts for ACP and my family [yeah I haven't done any Christmas shopping yet], I hope I don't get lazy. Shit! I wanna order the Qtek 9100 online already and claim it when I get there! Dunno if they are selling it at retail stores since it is an import model!

Coron Labor Day Weekend Getaway

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau. [The water is FIIIIINE!!!] [dinner at Bistro Coron] [Happy Birthday Loralee :D] Coron is one heck of a lovely place… just remember to bring mosquito repellent. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bnycastro/tags/coron_0509

Darth Kegaw to Treo 750: It is Useless to Resist

I have never been one to keep my devices *as is* when it comes to the OS/Firmware… This 2nd Treo 750 will be no different. So I dusted off my old Cheetah files [trivia: the Treo 750 is codenamed HTC Cheetah] and decided to HARD SPL [this allows for non-carrier branded ROMs to be loaded] and flashed it to a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen… and the ROM loaded without any issues. I did notice that Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 was not included in this ROM not really a problem since I own the software as well.  I’m currently syncing my PIM data and will be installing my apps over the next few days.
