After last night’s Let’s Talk iPhone event, I’m open to trying out new mobile phones again! Ever since I got my 3GS, I’ve been rather stubborn that no other phone can replace the iPhone, but having used iPhone for two years now, I’m beginning to get bored of it. Not that I’ll not consider buying the 4GS, just that I think I should give other brands a chance.

My lifestyle for the next one year, in wait for iPhone 5, I’ll need the following features in my phone:

• great camera (8mp and above) to capture shots of kids in action with good lens, light sensitivity and macro shots
• email access
• good UI for access to Facebook, twitter, instagram, flickr, wordpress, google apps, dropbox and whatsapp
• good photo editing apps equivalent to camera+, photoshake and pictureshow on iOS
• at least 16GB storage
• good speakers

Anyone has got a better alternative than the iPhone 4S for my needs? If not I’ll have to join the queue on 28 Oct! -_-”

I admit I’m not a beer person. But this case looks pretty cool for my iPhone don’t you think so too?

From 15 April to 15 May 2010, you can redeem a limited edition Tiger Platinum phone case with every purchase of one six-can pack of Tiger Beer at participating outlets such as NTUC Fairprice & Hypermart, Carrefour, Cold Storage, Shop N Save, Giant and others.

I’m going to buy a 6-can pack for my Dad tonight so that I can redeem for my Tiger Beer iPhone casing!! Ho! Ho!

Have you seen the cute mini Tiger cans I got from delivery man? Love them!

Updates:
16 April, night: I tried asking NTUC at Hougang Mall and the bigger one outside, both don’t know of this promotion. Can’t find details on their website too. Shall check the thumbdrive at office again tml to see if I’d missed out anything.

17 April, night: Went to Cold Storage at Tampines1 and Giant Tampines today to try my luck. Still no one knows about this on-going promotion. Anyone has got any clue as to when and how we can get hold of the phone cases?

20 April, night: I checked with the PR folks of Tiger Beer and they clarified: “Essentially, even though the promotion started from 15 April, it was being implemented progressively throughout the participating outlets. The iPhone cases should now be available at all the mentioned outlets.” – I’ve yet gone to any of the outlets yet, will give it another try by this week. Wish me luck!

Well almost! The fire was close, and almost sent some sparks flying towards my face. But it was for a great dining experience, one that I’d not have for long time.

Dining with fire wor!

The last time I had Teppanyaki dinner was more than a decade ago. After seeing the lobster on Diana’s blog, I cannot help but go try it too! (Yap! She’s got great influence to me!)

So dinner at Sakae Teppanyaki we went…

Having attended and got first hand try on so many mobile phones, I’m soooo stuck! Its NEVER going to be easy for me to get a new phone ever! So I’ve decided to create my own mobile phone!

This is what my phone will look like…

Can you recognised which parts come from which model? Yes, its a mashed up! Let me explain more about my ideal mobile phone…

Currently I’m owning the Samsung Innov8, which I’m loving for its camera and audio experience. But the flash on the Innov8 would have been better if it was Xeon flash. So I’d edited it with the Sony Ericsson C905 flash. However, its not optimised enough for content consumption. Having tried the HTC Touch HD for a month now, I’m really loving how big the screen is and the clarity of it. Than there’s the Nokia E63 which I just tried, the QWERTY keyboard is one that I love. And the email features too. But the screen is just not optimised for web browsing. Than!! The iphone interface! This I don’t need to elaborate I guess.

So in short, my ideal phone will look something like the above. I wonder if anyone would really have something like that soon? I think not.

So what’s YOUR ideal phone? Do a mashup and share it! Leave a link so I can go check it out!

P/s: Why am I calling it my ideal phone for April 09? Cos there’s always better features and better phones coming out! Since its my ideal phone, I get to decide how it looks or works anytime I like right? =P

Right… alighting from the train now.
