XL Unlimited Internet Bundling - The Truth

Since the subscription started back in November 2009, I was happy. Now as it turns out, something so good couldn’t be that good. I’ve been their evangelist because of how satisfied I am with their unlimited internet package. Can you imagine I got 1Mbps with HSDPA coverage. A very good speed remembering the internet speed climate in Indonesia. Now I’m deeply disappointed. This past week, today was the second time I wasn’t able to get any internet. [Read More]

I choose to sync the time and what I found was the Network Time was set at the same 00:00 the next day as my Blackberry. [Read More]

Augment YOUR Reality

Good evening! I’m liking my Nexus One, I’m sure you’ve read it over and over on my last posts. What’s really inspiring is the freedom to do just about anything you want with the phone. I love how I can just push my self-developed applications onto the phone just by using Eclipse. It makes it easier to do testings. No complicated code signing and or certificate applications needed. Anyways, these past few weeks, I’ve been developing an Augmented Reality application for a client. [Read More]

Blackberry Gemini Curve 8520 - OS 5.0.0.610

OK I’ve been using the new OS for 2 days and everything seem quite unexpected. There are improvements and unfortunately, there are setbacks. I’m gonna talk about setbacks. The most notable difference is when you realize that in your Home screen, you won’t find the Lock icon. This is annoying. I’m used to setting the Lock icon as one of the first 6 icons and most notably, locking the Blackberry with it before putting it in my pocket. [Read More]

Tech & More @ Singapore

Okay, back in Jakarta after a 4 days trip to Singapore. Thanks to the organizing committee and the panelists for inviting Mediafusion to Singapore to present our ideas.
