Review|Pirate Nero 4Gb / tokidoki x mimoco Designer USB Flashdrive

When I got in the office yesterday morning there was a parcel waiting for me on my desk. I knew right there it was from mimoco [USPS packaging + tube shaped appearance]. So I unpack it quickly and check out my 4Gb Pirate Nero tokidoki x mimoco Limited Edition Designer USB Flashdrive.

I got the Pirate Nero mimibot a couple of stickers and brochures as well [not shown], unlike my Star Wars Series 1 and 2 which I got 1Gb each I decided to go with a higher capacity for this mimibot [got a 4Gb]. So Chewie is going back to his packaging and will be displayed alongside my other mimibots.

[say hello: PIRATE NERO!!!]

part of the swag for mimoco USB drives is the content inside. You get a SoundByte Application [sounds when you insert or remove your mimobot from your PC], some icons, images and wallpapers and Mimozine vol. 2, pretty busy so I haven't really checked out all the stuff yet. Oh... and I don't have a Vista machine right now so I don't know if these current generation of mimibots are ReadyBoost capable [my Star Wars series 1 and 2 are not ReadyBoost capable].

[Yellow Protohoodie w/ Pirate Nero]
I got a yellow protohoodie for Nero, but I'll be using my black protohoodie because I hang my mimibot outside my bag and the yellow looks like it'll get dirty pretty quick.

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.

Elopocalypse or Balmergeddon

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...

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.
