Dell Streak - Smartphone and Tablet
Beberapa bulan yang lepas (sebelum spring break) aku telah berjaya membuat line telephone under family package, and sebab dah ada line, kene la amik kesempatan untuk membeli smartphone pada harga yang murah. Selepas browse beberapa model smartphone, tetiba ada rakan yang recommend beli Dell Streak 5. Dell Streak ni boleh juga dikatakan sebagai hibrid (smartphone and a tablet) disebabkan oleh size screen yang agak besar bagi sebuah smartphone - 5 in.

Lawak buat Masyarakat NERD/NARPS
A man was crossing a road one day when a frog called out to him and said: "If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess". He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said: "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will stay with you for one week." The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket. The frog then cried out: "If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you and do ANYTHING you want". Again the man took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket. Finally, the frog asked: "What is the matter ? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess, that I'll stay with you for a week and do anything you want. Why won't you kiss me ?" The man said, "Look I'm a software engineer. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog is cool."

Logitech G9x
This may be a bit of personal review on my newest gaming mouse, the Logitech G9x. Don't take note on everything that I wrote here because the unit itself may differ from what Logitech claimed it should be. First of all, I bought this mouse on Amazon for roughly 50 bucks. It should be a great deal because the list price of this mouse was at 80 bucks, again from Amazon, but recently my friend just told me that he grabbed this mouse at 25USD...
Let me start with the brief specification of the mouse. It was a gaming grade mouse, with a gaming grade laser, a customizable DPI setting from as low as 400 up to 5700. I was a bit shock because I was told that this mouse should have the highest DPI of 5000, but when I went to Logitech SetPoint, I was able to set DPI levels up to 5700. It has a replaceable outer casing, weight-tuning system, breaded cable, etc. It is not a wireless mouse, and the cable is quite lengthy, but you didn't have to worry about tangling wires because of the breaded cable.
The mouse itself fits perfectly in my palm, and Logitech did a very nice job in introducing the replaceable palm rest. I admit that this mouse was not on par with Cyborg RAT series for customization feature, but you have to sacrifice some feature for higher performance. I did found some reviews on Cyborg RAT series that claimed the mouse to have a poor build quality. However, I didn't think that the build quality of RAT 5 was that poor since I got a chance to actually 'feel' it. Oh yeah, I did also found several angry customers that claim their RAT mouse does not track well on most surfaces, including high-end mouse mat, but I didn't have any chance to test that, since I didn't bring my precious Gigabyte here.
Logitech G9x performs just as I expected. On the fly DPI setting works without any problem. However, I did found some problem when I want to set the profile to change automatically. Logitech SetPoint does not recognize some application, given that most of my games were cracked. But, it does not really matter since we can change the profile on the mouse itself. Just push the button under the mouse to change between profile, and you can also set the color of the LED to your liking.
Another problem that I ran into is due to my hardware problem. My HP MobileWorkstation cannot handle 1000Hz polling rate during game; the highest polling rate that I can achieve in game was just around 500Hz. I don't really see the importance of higher polling rate, but it all came down to preference. Another feature that I don't use much is the continuous scrolling system. I don't recall using it when I want to to read my ebook though it may be advantageous for someone who deals with insanely long document. Well, you still have the Ctrl+F on your disposal, so why bother looking for a single word by scrolling through the document when you can simply search it?
Overall, I am very satisfied with this mouse. Honestly, I am more towards Microsoft because of their 3-year warranty program. Nevertheless, Logitech changed my mind. I didn't own enough Logitech's products to be called a fanboy, but their Rumblepad II and G9x did a very good job for me. I am more than grateful to have this piece of hardware on my hand. I guess the saying 'you get what you pay for' seems irrelevant here. I paid 50 bucks, and get the quality and performance of 70 bucks mouse! Thank you Logitech!!!
Peace out...

Muse - Fright Night - Phantom of The Opera - Prototype - Star Wars - Batman
Post ini adalah untuk update tentang 6 perkara yang paling best aku buat sepanjang 2-3 minggu nie. It's gonna be a very long post..... so kalu nak baca, baca lah.....tapi banyak jugak gambar, especially for Fright Night!!
1) Concert Muse di Prudential Center, Newark, NJ
Muse sangat awesome!!! First time nengok concert besar yang live, so sangat excited... Nasib baik waktu maghrib dekat US nie dah semakin dekat, so takdela nak payah2 nak solat time concert... Lepas solat maghrib kat tepi jalan sebelah dengan Newark-Penn Station, kitorang pown berjalan kaki ker Prudential Center, takdela jauh sangat...haha... Malam tue dimulakan dengan persembahan daripada Metric, band dari Canada yang dijemput untuk membuat persembahan intro.... Ada satu jer lagu diorang yang best... Dalam pukul 8.30 baru lah Muse start buat persembahan!! Diorang start dengan lagu Uprising, memang mantap giler, dan diakhiri dengan lagu Knight of Cydonia!! Memang HOLY SHIT la!! hahahaha...
