  • Glofiish Reviews: DX900 for P29,990 and X610 for P19,990

    EDIT I:I recently published a review of the new dual faced ACER DX650 — yes Glofiish is now owned by ACER! If you bought a Glofiish device and wonder about tech support, I am told it will be honored with ACER. EDIT II: Made a correction with the DX900 – it has a 3MP camera,…

  • Loadmomma is the “second half” of Red Mobile: Free affiliate load sending!

    The summary: Loadmomma from Red Mobile combines social media and viral marketing with a prepaid load distribution. The cat is finally out of the bag. Several weeks ago, customer service reps from uMobile (formerly CURE) called their former subscribers hinting of a new service on the rise. A lot of bloggers caught sight of this…

  • TORQUE C100 Review: Bluetooth and camera for P2,199

    EDIT: If you’re looking for more TORQUE products, check out the cheapest dual SIM phone in the market, the TORQUE D100. There’s a different philosophy behind reviewing entry level phones – more than features, people tend to look at price, but with the way the mobile phone market is becoming more and more sophisticated, even…

  • Nokia E63 retails for P14,200 in the Philippines

    A few weeks ago I won a Nokia N79 from a raffle from Nokia. Having really wanted the semi-brand new E71 in its stead, I bargained for a swap since the latter was a tad cheaper in price mainly due to an earlier release date. The E71 is a fantastic QWERTY business device and my…

  • “Flowers from the Rubble”

    I can’t help but be sentimental as its nearing the end of the year. And today I’d like to talk about remembering your roots. The best TV appearance I ever made was in a recent show of a friend whom I met at the UA&P. His name is John D Borra and aside from running…

  • Unboxing Crumpler Loo Roll with Road Test: Two thumbs up!

    As a niche leader in comfortable bags, Crumpler also produces some of the most bizzare schwag. Thanks to the generosity of Charlie Paw at last night’s PhilMUG party we have the chance to do an official unboxing and and first impression run of the Loo Roll, Crumpler’s tissue roll that doubles as a paint by…

  • PhilMUG 2008 Christmas Party Photo Overload!

    In the tradition of PhilMUG Christmas parties, there are always more prizes to be raffled than guests! Everyone went home with something – alongside TuneCard gifts, iCreate magazines and Crumpler mini matches and Loo Rolls! I raffled off five Defactory pouches (made to fit an iPod) and a BodyGuardz iPod touch protector. A huge thanks…

  • Samsung Pixon M8800 Photos and Review

    This review begins with a short story involving a small, nonchalant “reunion” of myself, Lorraine Javalera from Samsung Mobile and MJ Cordova who does their PR. After the media was toured through the new features and specs of the M8800 Pixon camera phone, I was able to do some catching up with both girls —…

  • Left 4 Dead: Rally for Philippine Steam community

    I’m slowly becoming a convert to huge digital downloads. I wasn’t a big fan of torrents because of my relatively slow connection but the recent news that Left 4 Dead might not be available on retail for the PC in Datablitz (it might be available elsewhere) made me shell out cash instead for a digital…
