Apple Rumors: iPad 3 on February 23, Wearable Siri Accessories
More than the news about the coming iPhone 5 (which should be completely redesigned to support a bigger 4.3″ screen), I’m more interested in two Apple rumors namely the iPad 3 allegedly going to be released the day before Steve Jobs’ birthday on the 24th of February 2012 and the Siri app being ported as…

Just finished my geeky holiday shopping! Budget: USD $30.00
When I was a kid, Christmas presents didn’t mean the act of opening everything on the morning of the 25th. For me, the holidays was a careful chore which I’d gladly do with my dad as I would “hint” what I wanted (in the 80’s it was Sky Commanders, Ninja Turtles and GI Joe’s) and…

Always wanted to do this, but these guys took it to the next level
Shot across 10 months with hundreds of dives. This is a short music video titled Our Blue by the Tank Bangers. And it’s epic. First off, it takes a lot of skill to sing underwater. Or play the guitar. No but really, as Filipinos there’s an absolute need to re-embrace our heritage as islanders and…

Download SmartNet from Android Marketplace
One of the reasons why I had decided to support Smart’s efforts as a consultant early this year was due to their shift in direction, moving away from the “archaic” cellular business (i.e. SMS and calls) and shifting attention to data and mobile applications. From the words of Bong Mojica at Mobile World Congress, SMART…

“How to Troll the Telco Industry” by SMART Communications and SUN cellular
I had a similar idea. But not with a Nokia phone. If you check my review of the Lenovo A60, you’ll realize that this is the perfect Android device that can feed both SUN and Smart. At a retail price of PHP 8,900.00 the phone can be offered for free at a very low plan.…

Beyond The Box @ One Rockwell is giving away SECRET PRIZES if you buy from them
If you’re buying gadgets from an IT store for the holidays, I highly suggest you grab your gear from Beyond The Box at One Rockwell this December 10-11 2011. That’s because every time you buy something worth PHP 1,000.00 you will be able to rip open an unlabeled box that contains extra loot for the…
