Creative Zen X-Fi (32GB)



Wow, wow, wow.. Creative came up with a better, cooler and feature-bursting zen mp3 player! And its new 32GB storage size will just swallow up your new iPod Touch. Take that Apple! The size of this new gadget is pretty much the same as its predecessor, Creative Zen. It's still credit card-sized and about a centimetre thick.

What immediately seduced me was the incorporation of X-Fi technology into the player. Everyone knows that Creative are the best with audio and naturally the technology they offer is certainly trusted. X-Fi processes the music and make them sound better than the CD quality and now, it's in the Zen! (Drools...) Moreover, in addition to the previous Zen features, Zen X-Fi includes wireless connectivity, allowing the user to log onto MSN Messenger and powerful in-built speakers.

Check out its sweet, enticing features:

1) X-Fi technology incorporated
2) In-built speakers
3) Huge storage capacity (solid state)
4) ~70g light
5) MSN Messenger compatible
6) Wireless capability
7) SD Card expansion
8) 2.5" screen, 16.7m colours
9) Radio, Mic, EQ support
10) Bundled with Noise Cancelling In-Ear Earphone

With features like that, an asking price of $399 is a steal. But I think I shall stick with my SanDisk Sansa for a while more until there are promotions for Zen X-Fi. LOL. Anyhow, I'll choose this over the Apple iPod Touch anytime.

Red Cloud


Took this picture of a red cloud against a clear blue evening sky one day after work. It's amazing, I've never seen such a strong contrast of colours in the sky before. It looks even cooler when you see it for yourself.

News To Amuse 2


The New Paper - 01 July 2008
8.4M People Will Go Blind in Asia by 2010
The first thing we think of when we read the headline is, "wat the...! 8million plus people will be blind in 2 years!" And that's only in Asia. What a way to "look" into the future. I'd rather not "see" it so soon. Well, better take care of our eyes. I'll "see" you again. LOL

NSF Accused Of Molesting Girl
Hmmm.. I guess after this article, people will have a stronger impression that guys who go into army become more desperate. It's true by the way, take example me, after I enlisted, I'm more desperate now. Desperate to get out of there! LOL.

Going Home?


My company has night's off tonight. And I overheard a conversation between 2 of my storemen, Marcus and Yao.

(whole conversation in mandarin)
Yao: I'm booking out today.
Marcus: Are you going home?
Yao: No.
Marcus: Then what are you going to do?
Yao: I'm going home to take some money.
Marcus: Then I ask you if you going home and you said no!
Yao: Oh yeah hor..
Marcus and Me: -_-"

Guitar Hero 4: World Tour


Adding on to the news of the release of Guitar Hero: On Tour for the DS. Here comes the next instalment from the series, Guitar Hero World Tour. This release will be playable on PS3, XBOX360 and Wii. This game will make history for the series. Why so? Because unlike previous games where there is only one included guitar controller, GH4 includes a revamped guitar controller, a new set of drums and yes, even a microphone. This allows you to play the guitar, drums as well as sing, much like Rock Band. The game is due to release next year and it currently cost US$189. Looks like I have to start saving my cash for this game. This is going to be so cool!
