Obsession

Well, it must be funny to be reading the title of the post "OBSESSION". All the more you are reading it in a blog that talks about smartphone, staying connected on the go....and many others related to technology.

Well, I guess the title come about due to my obsession with Windows Mobile and other smartphones news lately.
But then again who wouldn't be now that the business is full of challenges and it is definitely becoming more competitive now.

Now there are actually a lot of things running through my head now with the rumour about the Windows mobile 7 coming out at the end of the year becoming more rapid and talks have been Microsoft will be the next thing if Windows Mobile 7 is as good as some proclaim it to be. But hold your anticipation there...we all know that this is also not the first time Microsoft disappoints her faithful users. But then we also remember how the company turn XBox into one of the most entertaining invention of the last decade.

Speculation has been ripe for more than a year now that Microsoft is working on a new phone, hardware to rival the Apple iPhone. Project Pink has been alive, declared dead, and then brought back to life in the space of a few months. New evidence suggests that at the very least Zune is going to play a big part in Windows Mobile 7, and at most a Zune Phone could be in the offing.
Microsoft has promised to reveal something big at the Mobile World Congress event in February, but that is assumed to be the final version of Windows Mobile 7. Those assumptions, however, could be wrong, and Microsoft may actually be preparing to reveal new hardware rather than its new mobile OS.

Well, with such excitement in the news, how can one not be obsessed with it??

And then recently, I read about an article that talks about the failure of Microsoft performing has caused the sales for HTC to gone flat despite of the hot sales in smartphones. But then I guess it's great to see how much longer HTC will wait and hold onto Microsoft. Although the company might have been the reason for HTC to be one of the strong smartphone manufacturer, there is a certain patience in their wait and with Android going strong, there might just be a change.

As a WM user, I must admit that I envy the Iphone users when they show off how they play with their toys. But I definitely given the resources and financial fundamentals of Microsoft, it is definitely the right choice to believe in the next Windows Mobile. But then again, I believe it is time and there is a great need for Microsoft to start IMAGINE again, so that they could come with something new, something that transform the smartphone industry. Maybe, just maybe they might pull this through.

Anyway, besides all the news that have been capturing my attention lately, I've downloaded the apps called "EVERNOTE". It is definitely an app that helps me to take down notes and I could easily access it through the internet. The information being stored in the "cloud" seems to be the right direction and so far, I'm enjoying it on my HTC P36ooi. Now that might have been a rather old model for a smartphone but it still entertains me.

Getting a free netbook?

With the economy not going too good even though many predict a growth trend for 2010, it is always wise to look for the cheapest and best bargain available. Now with our Budget 2010 specifying the need to offer cheap broadband to university students, Streamyx has a "Promotion" specially for university student.

It is only RM50 and you will get Streamyx 384kbps. No installation fee or activation fee will be charged. You will get FREE Wifi modem, a netbook delivered to your doorstep, and also Streamyx Zone ID which makes mobility possible.

However, only first or 2nd year students are offered this promotion. This offer is open to IPTA as well as IPTS students. There is a list of university students who are eligible to apply for this promotion. Feel free to log in Streamyx website to check out for more information about this website.

Now, we finally have some good PROMOTION that intends to help university students. Surely this will help them to manage their finance better as well as to have more cash in hand as they do not need to spend a few thousands for a laptop or computer.

Windows Mobile 7 to be shown in Mobile World Congress??

Now there might be a lot of people who rule out Microsoft from the smartphone industry. However, it is always dangerous and stupid to forget about the biggest company in the information industry. After all, this is Microsoft we are talking about.
Even as the economy slump, the company is still very strong financially and have we forgot about how Windows 7 makes the rest of the world stand in awe again of Microsoft. Well, the smartphone industry might not be as easy as the OS especially with iphone going to go better with their version 4 for sure.

Of course, there have been rumours about the delayed of the launching of Windows Mobile 7 with some saying that it could be too late to save Microsoft. Well, the latest rumour surrounding the hype of Windows Mobile 7 is that it could be shown and mentioned of during next month Mobile World Congress which begins on the 15th of February.

There have been new rumour which says that WM7 could come into 2 different version, with one for the BUSINESS EDITION and another MEDIA EDITION. The one that many would look forward to would be the ME as much changes have been said being made to make WM7 the next HiT to revive Microsoft in competing with Iphone, Blackberry and others.

The mobile OS may come with a variety of different features including an impressive mobile version of Office, online collaboration, high-definition video, Xbox Live, and streaming TV, according to WM Experts, a Windows Mobile news site.

It is said that it is likely that Microsoft would show off part of WINDOWS MOBILE 7 during the MWC this year. Well, it is definitely something that we should look for...after all, it is the competition that set a higher level for the smartphone industry.
