It's not the iPhone
Globe is offering the iPhone in the Philippines. News of this came out yesterday. So what else is new? It just confirms last year's rumors. What I'm really excited of is the possibility of finally opening the iTunes Music Store in this country because of this device. Yeah baby!
Gastos Bug?
I finally got to see and touch the Sony Ericsson W960i. I dropped by the Sony Ericsson booth at Megamall's Cyberzone after paying the landline and water bills. I thought it would be out of stock or something as this was always the case, so I was shocked when the sales person showed it to me. Wow! Finally. Really sweet. Now I'm in love. I think I will be replacing my Nokia N70 very, very soon.
Talking about shopping, I actually splurged on the web, buying running stuff from REI and a Garmin GPS 305 unit from Amazon. I'm sorry. Their offers were quite irresistible. As of press time, I bought a couple of Nike running shorts and dri-fit running shirts from REI, amd a Garmin 305 GPS unit, Flip Video bike mount and two iSkin Evo3s for my 5th generation iPod from Amazon. My in-laws are in Vegas so I'm really taking advantage.
There You Are!
Oh hello, iPod! It seemed like a long time since I last saw you.
I guess you can blame it on wizard Steve Jobs and his merry men of designers. They gave you a very sexy body with a really shiny back – very beautiful. But this is your curse. They guaranteed that you’ll be obsolete in a few months time, and so the moment I use you in the real world, you scratch easily. Because of this, I have little choice but to encase you in a horrendous silicone case made in Taiwan.
Be not afraid, my love, for those days are over now, thanks to the guys at GMask. With their protective film, you stay safe but without the bulkiness of your previous cases. Now I can appreciate your beauty without the worry of you getting scratched.
It's so easy that I was able to make a short wala lang movie from the footages I took in Nigel's birthday party. Granted I still have tons to learn on editing and shit, but to do something like this with just dragging and putting texts blew my mind away. When I showed what I did to my wife, she was so jealous she can't wait to have her own Mac.
Now if only we had this technology when we were shooting our short film in high school, then Lilim would have been chosen as the class film instead of that silly kidnap comedy.
Going Multimedia
I've been going to my friends' blogs looking for new updates from them when I realized I haven't blogged for this year. Like Bea, it has nothing to do with the lack of content but more on just plain laziness. So as late as it may seem, let me greet you a Happy New Year and pray that there's something special in store for you for 2008.
Ever since Charo gave me a Flip Video Ultra for Christmas, I've been playing around with it. Took it to a mountain bike ride, did a recording, uploaded it in my Kyte channel and voila! we're doing video!
Check it out people!

Yes, I think we'll be seeing more videos here for 2008! Heheheheh!
And with this, let me leave you with one more video that will make you hungry. It's not mine but it's been going around the office like a 14th month memo!
