ipod nano [UPDATED with the colours of iPod]

kevin7 — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 12:00:58 +0800

i read a lot of comments from the globe... hmm, it seems to be ipod nano's prasent isn't welcome by everyone..
just curious, anyone here would buy a ipod nano?

i'm thinking of buying one... and i think it's gonna be black color... it look better in black... hahaa
well, i wanna buy a pendrive, and mp3 player..
now ipod nano will suit me most, it's small (fat, duncare bout it), thin, 8GB, photo, video, game and extra...
24hours mp3 play back, 5 hours movie...

sound really good to me...

how bout u all?

hmmm, i think this is a good news to me, i thought the color of ipod will be exactly what we have seen in apple wesbite... but, it isn't true i guess... got it from flickr... and the contrast is higher than the one presented in apple website... enjoy..

Apple WWDC

kevin7 — Sun, 10 Jun 2007 08:28:59 +0800

I've been waiting for this event since last year WWDC 2006!
What I gotta say, time is passing really fast and now, I believe this would be the greatest event... iPhone, Leopard Top secret, new hardware....

I personally bookmarked two Live Keynote website:
Gizdomo WWDC07
Macrumor Live

I aint own any of the Apple product, but I'm totally obsessed to them, esp Macbook Pro. Always observing the upgrade, and this certainly the best ever! haha...
but i got no money... well, eventually... eventually, hopefully end of this year, or maybe when macbooks are come with preloaded leopard... well, leopard is gonna release on November anyway... so, still have time to save couple of dollars...!

we'll see how Job will shock the apple fans again with his "One More Thing"...

restore formatted CF card

kevin7 — Sun, 15 Apr 2007 20:39:57 +0800

Hi everyone... i'm facing a serious problem..

I only have 2 CF cards, 256MB and 128MB...
during my friends' graduation, I often swap the CF card when it is full and put it into my external harddisk (external harddisk with card reading function, allow to copy file from CF instantly)...

for some reason, I thought I had copied all the photo into the harddisk (actually it didint)... I have formatted the CF card with a lot of precious photo in it...

I dunno why I can't find those photo in the external harddisk....
can anyone tell me... is it possible to restore files from a formatted CF card?
any software comes to rescue???

thank so much!

question about white macbook

kevin7 — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 22:07:34 +0800

i'm a 11years old pc user, and i desperately wanna switch to apple... i'm quite aware of everything about apple... everything! : )

i'm planning to buy a macbook, probably white color 2.0 C2D... leopard would released anytime soon, and i'm not rushing, so i will wait for a macbook with preloaded new os 10.5.

i've read a lot of reviews and articles, and always been aware of apple defective issues these few months... i'm quite worry about the case of white macbook, does it still hving the discoloration issues? those annoying and unerasable yellow/brown stains...

and, about the charging of the macbook battery, will it switch to the direct AC after the battery is full? like the feature in all Asus laptop...

magsafe is really safe? anyone here happened to have the magsafe melted issues?
screen flicker issues?

white macbook owner, please answer my question. appreciated!
