In terms of affordability and reliability, I’m still eyeing for Motorola W230. According to it’s official website, it sports a Music Player and FM Radio which can record and save on phone. It can hold up to 2GB of external storage which is really ideal for me.

I went to the Motorola store at Digital Exchange Glorietta to avail one, but it will be available on April. They have one unit there but it’s for display only. I asked for the price and they said they have no idea yet. I hope the $50-price is true. I have no idea of the release date in other countries.

Should this phone go higher than Php 2,500, then I will have to look for another. But let’s see.

Would you recommend any ideal phone to me? I really have to use my Sun Cellular SIM card since I will still have to pay for it every month.

My Sun Cellular SIM Card has been sleeping inside my wallet for a while already. I’m paying for it eventhough I don’t use it. I already dumped my LG-KG220 for only Php 2K. It’s design is elegant, I really liked it. Still the most beautiful phone I ever had in terms of the looks. But it’s just not easy to use and I got annoyed. I bought a Nokia 1200 and it was cool. Keys are soft, making calls and SMS are really easy to do. But after 2 weeks, I sold my Nokia 1200 for a lower price.

Now, I’m on the hunt for a new cheap phone and I was actually targeting small Nokia Classic phones like 2100, 1100, etc… for SMS and calls. I want to have Nokia 1200 again so I can use the spare BL-5C battery of my lost N-Gage. But I’m kind of hesitant now that I learned Motorola is launching the World’s Cheapest Music Phone. The Motorola w230 is priced at only PHP 2,490.00 or roughly USD $50.00, according to Jayvee.

But where the heck can I get this one? Has it been released to the market already? I already inquired at Motorola SM Mall of Asia brach last night but they don’t have any idea of when and how much it’s gonna be.

I read somewhere that it’s going to be released Q1 of 2008. When exactly? And I don’t know where? And it’s nearing “March end already”… I need to know…

Nokia 6120 Classic mobile phone is the smallest Smart Phone from Nokia. And it has a lot of potentials I have not discovered yet. Apart from it’s sleek design that I really love, I also like it’s interactivity. Very user friendly to use.

The best feature I liked about it is it’s reasonably fast 3G connectivity. I can use it as a modem or use it itself to browse your blogs and create entries for this blog. Read More

Me and my wife were on the car last Sunday when she accidentally slipped her tongue about buying an ASUS EEE PC. Pronounced correctly as A-SUS E PC, with a short ‘a’ as in apple.. So I pumped up the A-SUS sensation higher and it looks like she’s getting more interested on getting one. The initial price of ASUS E in the Philippines is Php 17,000 when Jayvee first mentioned on his blog and now he’s saying that there was a price dropdown on PC Conrner Greenhills branch. (Php 16,000). This seems to be more interesting. We have read some reviews and they seem very positive.

One of the major drawback of ASUS E is it’s storage capacity. Though most reviewers are satisfied with it since it already has all the basic needs for an ultraportable laptop. But a guy from eeeuser.com has successfully embeded an extra 16Gb flash drive on his 4GB ASUS E. Amazingly, he added another USB port using one of the PCIe ports. He voided the warranty but it seems satisfying for him. However, some says that there are two ASUS E series. 7A and 7B, where 7B series lacks that additional PCIe where you can add a new USB port.

Anyway, if ever we are really having one, I would not even try doing the same. Alright, I’ll start learning Linux now.

The one millionth iPhone has been sold yesterday as Steve Jobs announced it earlier today. It took 74 days for Apple to reach their target units sold. It probably could have been a little longer if they did not cut off iPhone price last week. iPhone was first shipped in the market last June 24, 2007.
