Surfing the Net using iPhone wifi in Singapore

The other day, I decided to ask Asia.cnet.com about using iPhone wifi to surf the Internet. The resident tech answered me today. Here's the link. Kind of an interesting reading.

For those interested to know about surfing mobile. Especially, in Singapore.

Here's the link again.

Also, if you have any question regarding products or services you can also post your question to them online.

Cheers!

Iraq won the 2007 AFC cup!

At first, I was afraid that theirs story will end in tears. But, that's the human spirit for you. They showed the world that in spite of not having the training facilities, or a soccer league of their own. Added to that that their country are in turmoil. Who would have thought that they'll beat Saudi Arabia?

I myself thought that the Saudis were a better team. With highly paid players playing in their top club. I know that they have good quality skillful players. But, yesterday on the match itself they can't match the Iraqis determination to win not just for themselves but for their war-torned country. What a triumph!

All over the news in CNN, BBC talking about that historical win and almost all hope that the politicians should take a lesson from sports and particularly the soccer team. Where in the team there were Muslims, Christians, Kurds, Sunnis and Shias but they manage to unite and work as a team.

Iraq should learn. We all should learn to live together as one people. We are all humans aren't we?

Nahh... we'll never learn.

Point in case? We're still making weapons to kill each other. Aren't we?

Oh yeah, by the way. We are still at war with the world. Not, just in Iraq. But, in Palestine and Israel. In the African countries. There's fire brewing underneath our feet. That fire is waiting to burn us all. We would think that it's just a small harmless fire but that small fire could grew bigger, fanned by hatred among us. It's just a matter of time..

And time is running out for all of us ..

A Toll Road

THE HIGHWAY TO SUCCESS IS A TOLL ROAD

Whatever you want in life,
you must give up something to get it.
The greater the value,
the greater the sacrifice required of you.

There's a price to pay if you want to make things better,
and a price you'll pay for just leaving things as they are.

Nothing worthwhile comes easily to anyone.
Work, continuous work and hard work,
is the only way to accomplish results that last.
Don't let the fear of change stop you from pursuing your dreams.

There is no success at bargain basement prices.
You must pay a price for success.

Forget paypal use AlertPay !

As I've posted earlier before >> Paypal Suckz!

I was recommended by someone to use AlertPay instead.

AlertPay is a company based in Canada and a little more flexible about you using their service. I'm not really sure how "flexible" they are but as far as I'm concerned, I'm done with using Paypal to do my business online.

All they're interested about is covering their own ass without giving others opportunity to clear things up. I sure hope they go out of business as more and more people complained about their attitude. The bigger they are the bigger ass they'll become.

Anyway, back to AlertPay. I sure hope this new payment service delivers. Although, I have signup with them for quite sometime but, this would be a few month of test for me. As, I tried to used it like Paypal. If it can provide the basic service of making and receive payment then I'll use it extensively in all of my websites. Currently, I'm only using it to sell a service at >>

http://internetmarketingandbusinesscentral.com/6by6.htm

I'm hoping someone will buy it and so, I'll know that it works well.

Next, I'll then use it for my safelist at >>

http://globalprofitsafelist.com

After that, I'll see how I can withdraw the money. If it's as easy as paypal then I'll definitely use it through to the other sites I'm promoting.

Of course, there's a lot of others online payment service out there. But, for the moment I'll try this out.

Hoping for the best!

I want an iPhone!

Heh! I found myself a new target in life. No. It's not finding myself a wife although, my Sargent used to keep reminding me to treat my M16 as one.

My new target is to get myself an iPhone!

Okay, okay. I might sound like a geek but the more I read reviews about it the more I want it. Just today, I read in "Today" newspaper featuring a couple of Singaporean entrepreneurs asking for their contacts in U.S. to line up on the 29th to get a couple of iPhone for them. And, they finally got it to Singapore. It's mostly for business purposes as they want to be prepared when the iPhone do come to Singapore. Which is probably in the middle of next year. Seems like a lifetime to me!

They are creating a host of products like stick-in stickers for the iPhone etc. Let just say by the time the product reach Singapore's shore there's already accessories you can buy. I find it perplexed though that some business owners aren't at all interested to do that. They very much preferred to take a position of wait-and-see. I think, they'll lose out on the craze and business too. I think if the product reach Asia and for me particularly Singapore it's going to be successful here. Although, the high price might set you back but the cool factor is definitely a draw. Big, fat rich kids is sure gonna ask their daddy or mommy to buy for them. That I'm sure.

Pssst.. I read in the paper that the guy who took his iPhone out in the MRT train (Mass Rapid Transport) actually got ladies chatting him up because of it.

Right now, you can already find a lot of applications, website optimize for your iPhone.

It's pretty cool.

In spite of that. I think, I'm gonna wait a wee bit longer till Apple improved on it. There's still no news of being able to send MMS, take videos or increased space on it. 8GB might sound pretty big but my 80GB ipod is already almost half fill-up. So, 8GB is pretty small. I guess, I can carry both around with me. I think, I might have 2 bulging pockets if I do that!

I thought about that and think that if I'm going out for movies or fun I might just carry my iPhone and if I'm going for a holiday or something then I'll bring both of them. Then, I'll have hours of music and videos.

Well, I'm just thinking about it anyway. The iPhone is still a long way to reaching here and I hope by the time it does, I'll have enough money and also the iPhone have improved enough to entice me to part almost a $1000 ++ singapore dollars for it!

Heh. To quote Simpson's .. "Doh!"

My life pretty much suckzz right now!

Yeah! It suckzz big time!!

And it's all because of Paypal!

Stupid paypal freaking ban my account and now I can't use it for sending or receiving money. It literally meant I'm out of bizness!

I can't freaking do anything. I can't sell and I can't buy. So, what de heck can I do? Freaking nothing!

They say, I'm promoting MLM, pyramid scheme which I'm not. And even so, I'm willing to take down the site or won't use their payment service. But, nooo... they freaking have no common sense and follow the rules by the book. Which is stupid. All this can be settled pretty easy but they don't want to do it.

Boy, if I can just get a hold of the one who banned me. I'll freaking strangle him/her to death. What an idiot. Now, I have to wait at least 180 days before my account can be back to normal again. Right now, I just feel like giving out everything.

But, I don't know. I have always like making money online. It's that one thing which I really love. Even though, I don't really make much. Hey, it's all about doing something you love right?

Well, I love working from home. The freedom. The quiet. I don't have to wake up every freaking morning to go to work I hate and blah blah blah. You know the drill.

I have tried everything and work in all kind of places. Some, I like some, I hate. But, as I say the most preferred job for me is working for myself at home via the Internet.

And now, paypal has destroyed that dream!

Okay, I know, I may be over-reacting. I'm not losing much and I know I can always re-start doing everything over again. This is not the first setback I ever encountered working online. There're a whole lot of crap you have to go through. But, that's what I'm saying. If you like it then there's nothing ever going to stop you.

I guess, what I can do right now is to go for a "holiday" a "break" from doing marketing online. Concentrate on doing other things. Which, I have to admit I have put on hold. I'll just take things as they come for now. Freaking hell, Paypal really living me in a mess. And in spite of using them for almost 8 years they do this to me. That's what the kind of service or people they are. They don't respect their customers. You should be beware of them. It could be you next!

Okay, enough said. I'm outta here!

Paypal suckzz BIT TIME!!

Iraq through to the AFC Final !!

Total JUBILATION for Iraq!!

They are through to the AFC cup final!!

Against all odds, Iraq have defeated Korea via a penalty shootout 4-3. I'm pretty sure in Iraq right now the people are out on the streets shouting and honking their cars. Waving the Iraq flag in jubilation of their soccer team advancing to the final.

Iraq, a country ravage by war. By internal fighting. At the brink of a civil war. But, with football they are united. Kurds, sunni or shia. They fought for each other and with spirits to win for their beloved country. I have to hand it to them. They, deserves all the praise in the world after what the people and the players themselves have to go through just to play football.

This could be the greatest underdog story for football fans worldwide.

I salute the Iraq players.

In the world without hope and living in desperation and death of relatives in Iraq, they fought through and did their very best. They believe in something. And football help them fulfill that dream.

For me though, I'm fed up with Paypal for closing my account today with them without giving me a chance to settle the problem!

That's life for you.

That's life for me too. When, I thought things are getting a bit better and circumstances have to bring me down.

Life is full of crap. Thank you very much!

How Adam had it easy

Today, being a Sunday. I'll lighten up by re-posting this joke taken from Askmen.com which newsletter I subscribe to. I recommend it.


How Adam Had It Easy...


1.
He is the only man who has never been compared to the man she could have married.
2. He had no in-laws to drop in.
3. There was no Jones for him to keep up with.
4. There were no credit cards or shopping centers.
5. He never had his dinner interrupted by window salesmen.
6. He got away with wearing a simple wardrobe.
7. He never had to shovel snow.
8. If he had gone bald, who would have known it wasn't normal?
9. There were no "standard weight and height" tables and the word "fat" meant good.
10. When God asked "Adam, where are you?" he replied, "The woman you gave me was reading the map."

AFC: Vietnam Vs. Iraq

I'm watching the Asia Football Championship between Vietnam and Iraq right now (while typing this). And, I think it's kind of ironic that both of this country used to and currently at war that involved the U.S. Army.

Remember the Vietnam war?

That's what the terrorist is telling the U.S.

Right, now the U.S. army is in Iraq. A country ravage by war just like Vietnam used to be.

Now, this two country meet in a football match. I wonder, if the Vietnam players are telling the Iraq players that their country too may become peaceful when and if the U.S. get out of Iraq just like they get out of Vietnam.

That could be interesting.

I think time will only tell if this could happen.

By the way, the earlier match between Japan and Australia ended in a penalty shootout after extra time and Japan deservedly win. The goalkeepers saved two shots and he help the Japanese go through to the semi-finals.

Australia was touted as one of the contender to win the AFC cup but, I think that's kind of arrogant and this proved how I was right in thinking that Australia should be kick out of the AFC cup at least for a couple of years.

The way they played was too sluggish to my liking compared to the other Asian countries like Thailand or Vietnam. Which play fast, beautiful football.

Australia on paper seems like a good team with their Europe based players like Harry Kewell that plays for Liverpool and Mark Viduka now playing for Newcastle. But, in the football pitch it's a different matter.

Well, that's all I wanted to say today.

I'm going back to watching the match. It's kind of heartening that in spite of their country torn by war the Iraq players are pretty good. They're playing good strong football. That's really surprising to me. Well, good for them then.

Chow for now.

CNN: World's Untold Stories

State of Despair

excerpts from the blog >>

The only uplifting moment was when I followed a couple of the kids –- asking them to show me how they get by and entertain themselves. They pulled out all the toys they'd found in the garbage and repaired, games they had made up to entertain themselves, and were keen to impress me with their inventiveness. Their resilience was so inspiring, but it was also bittersweet as their life in Jordan is seriously limited. I only hope they find a better place to be able to deal with the terrible things they've known in their short lives.

A week of death and counting

This week alone if I can add up all the numbers of people died in Iraq + Afghanistan + Palestine = 1000s!!

And this people died, bomb into pieces. Some of them doesn't even know why they are being killed. I think even the killer themselves doesn't know what they are doing. It's a living hell.

But, here we are whining about our daily life 'boring' routine.

We tend to forget about those in the war torn country. All in the name of fighting terrorist. But, it doesn't have to be a war with a country. Hundreds may have died in their regime but 1000s more die because of this war. But, why would you care?

Yeah, you only care about your own bloody life.

You people make me sick.

iPhone Full review

Well, like I said. Once, the iPhone is out you'll get loads and loads of review. Some whine, some excited and some just doesn't care. But if you do care or thinking of buying one then here's a link to Cnet.com full iPhone review.

It's better you take note of what the iPhone offers and features before you regret buying it later on, which some did. Some bought it just because of the hype and didn't really look or do any research on it. In the end they wasted almost $700 bucks (plus new line activation etc.).

So, again here's the link.

Another way you can check out the iPhone review is just by typing "iPhone review" on Google or Yahoo search. A list of all the review will come out. There's some video review on YouTube also. You might want to check it out there.

Well, I'm off to do my own review research. Hehe. I can't get enough of this review!

Have a nice sunday folks!
