More toys to play with now

Monday, February 20, 2006

The weekend was very "gadgety" for us. At first we only planned on getting my mobile phone checked out because we suspected there was some problem with the in-built microphone. We went all the way downtown to the service center in Low Yatt Plaza. We went early to beat the weekend traffic as well as to be the first at the service center. When we got there, most shops were still not opened so we went for breakfast at a café called Hainan Coffee. The food was so-so but the coffee was excellent! Best coffee I’ve had so far. No doubt about it.

Anyway, I’ve digressed…Coming back to the phone story….

After we dropped off the phone for repair, we went to shop around the IT floors and bought ourselves Bluetooth connectivity devices. Next, we shopped for CDs. Then, we spent the afternoon playing with our new toys and discovered one of the Bluetooth devices doesn’t work at all. It was quite a disappointment.

So after our Sunday brunch at the famous coffee shop Yut Kee, we were back at Low Yatt Plaza again. However, the shop was closed. But that didn’t stop us from browsing the place again. This time we bought some 4-port USB hubs and more CDs. See, there’re always things to buy even if you go 2 days in a row!

Today, Ray has gone back for the 3rd time to get the defective thing exchanged. I wonder how he’s doing…will he find more things to buy for the 3rd consecutive day? Only time will tell…

Oh yes .. bought another 2 Home 3D Design software CD and have the bluetooth device changed. Anyhow after installation, i can send to the pc via my hp but dunno how to do it vice versa.

Very frustrated, i think i'll go get the MSI brand which is double the price of what i got.

Low Yat, whether you are an IT freak or a "know-a-bit-a-bit" person like myself ... YOU'RE BOUND TO GET SOMETHING !!
