Curiously Waiting

Curiously waiting for my lomo pics to come out... I've managed to shoot out 8 rolls [6 with the holga 135 + 2 with the vivitar ic100] but haven't had them developed yet. Well finally got around to asking the messenger to drop em off at digiprint, will probably get my CD/s when I come back from our trip to Japan.

I'm bringing the holga135 and my trusty canon ixus50 on our Japan trip tomorrow. I'm also bringing along my 8 rolls of expired film [@24 shots each], I wonder if that's enough...

I read online that we might be able to catch the plum blossom festival [note: this is different from the über popular cherry blossom festival]. I'm also really looking forward to visiting AKIHABARA [Electric Town] the electronics and gaming mecca of Tokyo... drool! From our itinerary I think we'll be a bit rushed but that's ok the more sites the better.

On the communications side. I'm leaving my Nokia N6267 and my Sun SIM at home and will bring along my HTC TyTN II with my roaming enabled Smart SIM. I've set my device to bar incoming calls whilst roaming and bar outgoing international calls, if you need to reach me just drop me an sms or an email to my dedicated address for my mobile. Hopefully I can find and connect using free WiFi hotspots there

It seems the weather is warming a bit I'm bringing 2 jackets and a scarf. If that's not enough then I guess I'll be forced to buy there [hehehehe]

I think my shobe is compiling good places to eat. So that's covered... :D

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.

So which is it? Nokia (NOK) and Microsoft (MSFT) announced a partnership today. Both lumbering companies have been in some trouble with their smartphone divisions. Both have been loosing market share to Apple, Android and Blackberry in recent years. WindowsMobile (previously PocketPC and currently WindowsPhone) once the dominant mobile OS, yes folks before the iPhone came into power Microsoft slowly but surely killed of it’s main competitor palm OS, which was acquired by hp last year and is now barely a sliver of a shadow of it’s former former former self. Just this week hp/palm unveiled 2 new smartphones the palm Pre 3 and Veer, as well as their entry into the tablet space with the TouchPad. hp being one of the top computer manufacturers at the moment has the resources to use and spread webOS like a creamy peanut butter across all markets they are in. By being one of MSFT’s biggest customers now suddenly not using Windows7 (still MSFT’s tablet OS of choice) and churning out comp...
