Today I return the goodies lent me, namely, the Motorola e680i and it’s sidekick, the Bluetooth headphones HT820, the Panasonic EB-VS3, the fabulous Motorola ROKR E1.
The subsequent write ups (can’t really call them reviews in the strictest sense as I wrote with a ‘lifestyle’ bent), are here for the ROKR E1, and here for the e680i and the ht820.

Yep that comely lass (with no name though, first time the cover didn’t mention a name), represents m|ph.com’s Ms. December, I mean, the cover for the month, quite comfortable dressed, imho, in appropriate attire (another first) for our nippy December weather.
Something went right today. Well, mostly at least. My article re the 2gb. iPod nano came out, (http://news.inq7.net/lifestyle/index.php?index=1&story_id=57430), and it came out almost exactly the way I wanted it too.
“Huh?” you say? I know that seems weird, but truth be told, it’s a struggle to get exactly those things lined up and happening exactly the way you want it to.
Me and Digital Exchange finally got our collective acts together to have all the gadgets I’m supposed to review over the following weeks delivered in one go. Not an easy task granted time and distance (they’re in Makati and I’m in Antipolo), the reported difficulty in dealing with the stores involved, occasional deadline issues and other nitty gritty details. Again, this is part of a 9 gadget writeup-fest to promote Digital Exchange (Glorietta 3), and so far I’ve finished with the Samsung SGH-e730, the Fujifilm F-810, and the iPod Nano 2gb, which should come out next week.
So anyway, enough talk! Here are they are!
The 2nd of 9 gadget reviews have come out today, you can check it here: http://news.inq7.net/lifestyle/index.php?index=1&story_id=55946, the first one being the Samsung SGH-E730, here: http://news.inq7.net/lifestyle/index.php?index=1&story_id=54497
Being the irrepressible annoying pundit that I am, as I viewed the nominees to a blog contest, I couldn’t help wondering about blog competitions per se.
Quick post to note the articles came out, since I still havent gotten round to making my Articles page. See that “Articles” link on top of my blog? Yup, dead link city.
ok so I got the first two gadgets last week, the Samsung SGH-E730 and the Olympus c-4000 Zoom.

I have been tasked to write about one gadget a week for eight weeks, to result in 8 articles, aka a tech-writer’s dream, aka a golden opportuntiy to manhandle and abuse things I could never afford if I earn twice as much, aka an enjoyable and productive writing opportunity, aka a reason to blog about our country’s dire need of strong leadership and direction, the loss of quality professionals to nursing opportunities abroad, and the general decay and misopportunities befalling our nation.
Say what?
Ever since I installed Google Desktop & Google Talk, I’ve had to contend with the Google Talk notifier that tells me if there’s a message or not, which it always says there is.
