Here is the iPhone

Finally the iPhone has make it to the stores, while I have a strong opinion about it regarding the articles I have read, I am not convinced it is the big next thing in the market, not at all.

Anyway, here it goes...

Apple's iPhone makes it to stores

Back from Singapore

I have just one thing to say: Amazing trip!

The New Nokia Organization

Nokia will be introducing a new company structure, effective January 1st, 2008.

The AAC, AAC+, eAAC+ audio formats

Nowadays everyone is buying a smartphone, or feature phone, whatever, you name it.

When I find friends talking about the memory space available on their mobiles and the MP3 thing, I always advise them to check if their phone can play the eAAC+.

I have hundreds of songs in my mobile today :)

Today the vast majority of good Nokia phones use it and I have explained it so many times that I always wanted to find a good (user) article about it. Here is the finding ;)

The Virus threat

That is why I like Symbian and to have PlatSec (platform security) in place.

Let us go to Singapore. Shall we?

In a few hours I will be departing to Singapore, such a great place to visit. I will be attending the next Forum Nokia Champion event, meeting great friends and getting to know some new faces, fantastic!!!

Everything is clean and safe, polite people, technology, good food. The best fact is that currency (Singapore dollar) is not that strong if compared to Brazilian real and it is a great place to buy new gadgets...oh my God, my credit card is going to have hard work.

What a nice trip :)

If you have never heard about Singapore, here is the entire profile.
