WorldSim or World Spin?
Saw the WorldSim offer on the KLM (& other) inflight magazine. Wondered if it was useful. I currently use TESCO Mobile in the UK to keep mobile costs down… but was puzzled by the lack of 3G options (perhaps I didn’t understand the current PTG models). Any opinions on 3G worldwide roaming offers… good or…
Don’t be gouged by your mobile carrier!
If you have ever traveled with your cellphone, you’ll certainly have experienced being gouged by your mobile operator for all that international calling you did (or didn’t do).

Mobile Music Center: Asus Eee PC vs. iPod Touch

Two beautiful new Mobile PCs for your kids!

New Year, Coupons, and a new mobile phone?
With Chinese New Year approaching, our NT$3600 coupons in our pocket… lots of people are now getting ready for the New Year. This usually involves buying new cars, houses, furniture, clothes, etc.. It can be a pretty expensive time of year, but this time the economic impact of idle workers, factories closing, and cut bonuses…
WordPress Mobile Edition: On Trial
Well, I’m trying out Alex King’s “WordPress Mobile Edition” on this blog. Do let me know if you have trouble accessing the blog or not, or if you find it any good! I can’t really access the blog at the moment. I have a webcapable phone, but I never use it for browsing, I think…
