[wta] MNP rejected

tehdynasty — Fri, 01 May 2015 13:59:53 +0800

I have 3 numbers under Digi Family postpaid plan currently (separate supp account, but all under my name) and I wanted to port all 3 lines to Celcom postpaid. As usual, I fill in those forms, bla bla bla, get a new sim card... and got a SMS - MNP rejected

I called Digi and inquire on that. Digi told me that Celcom need to submit 3 MNP forms instead of 1.
When I tell Celcom on that, Celcom says they can't submit 3 MNP forms, it'll become 3 main line on their side.

Anyone has any idea on how to solve this? 1 side says they need 3 forms.... the other side says they only can submit 1 form...

tehdynasty — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 00:15:13 +0800

Doughnut USB Humidifier
A perfect gift for your love ones.
Or as birthday/house warming/newborn baby gift.

What is Humidifier?
A device for keeping the atmosphere moist in a room. (from uncle google)

Why need humidifier?
For many people, a dry indoor climate due to low humidity causes a variety of discomforts--from increased risk of colds and flu to dry skin. A humidifier is a device that adds moisture back into the air, and according to the American Lung Association, a relative humidity of between 35 percent and 55 percent, achievable with a cool-mist or warm-air humidifier, is the most comfortable range for indoor humidity.
[http://www.livestrong.com/article/196384-why-do-i-need-a-humidifier/]

Benefits?
- REMEDYING DRY SKIN IN WINTER
(yes, we don’t have winter here... but air-cond does create a DRY environment. Try something that’s safer and cheaper than lotion – water!)
- TREATING COLD, FLU AND ALLERGY SYMPTOMS
(dryness, irritation or itchiness on nose, throat, mouth or eyes?)
- ASTHMA
(No, it won’t cure asthma! But it helps to ease the difficulty during breathing)
- NOSE BLEED
(No, again, it won’t stop nose bleeding. But it helps to prevent nose bleeding caused by the dryness of the air.)
-HOME DAMAGE
(cracks in furniture and paint/wallpaper?)
-ELECTRIC SHOCK
(Ever get static electric shock when touching the door knob? Window knob? and etc… It’s much easier to get static electric shock in dry environment)

QnA

QUOTE

1) What type of humidifier is this?
It's ultrasonic humidifier.
1.1) What's so special about ultrasonic type humidifier?
- It generates extremely fine water droplets that mix into the air quickly and consistently
- you can see 'smoke' coming out from it. That's microscopic water droplets.
1.2) There are bunch of the ultrasonic humidifier out there, what's so special about this one?
- It's small, USB powered, making it suitable to use in small area suck as office desk + easy to carry around.
- It has auto off timer (3 hours or 6 hours).
- Touch switch control
- It has no water tank (some may looks ugly), use whatever cup/container you like as long as it can fit in. It floats on water!
- Microscopic water droplets that mix into the air almost immediately. Minimizing the chances of over damping the area.

2) Product Specifications
- Ultrasonic Humidifier
- Weight about 35grams
- size about 2(H)x 5(D)
- Cute donut shape
- 5V USB powered
- water consumption around 4cm3/hour (based on my testing and measurement using cheap ruler; just for reference)
- available in 3 colors (Glossy White, Ocean Blue, Rose Pink)

3) Warranty?
1 month.

4) Warning!
-Keep out from placing too close with power outlets! Water is not a good friend to Mr Electric.
-There's a hazard of water spill by accident. Keep out from important documents!
-Do not submerge the whole humidifier into water. It floats, can't submerge like a submarine!

QnA

QUOTE

1) Why don’t have ‘smoke’ comes out like others humidifier?
There are a few types of humidifier. The ‘smoke’ type aka ultrasonic humidifier. The ‘smoke’ is actually water vapour + anything else that can be found in water. Here’s the comparison between ultrasonic humidifier vs the one I have.
> Pros
-- ultrasonic humidifier able to produce a huge amount of fine water droplets to the outlet
> Cons
--ultrasonic humidifier will cause ‘white spot’ if not using DISTILLED water (CLEANER than FILTERED water) due to minerals and dust in water.
-- if something (electronics, computers, papers and etc) placed too close to its outlet, it’ll damp it causing it to rust. Worst case, short circuit with some smoke/fire coming out.
-- can’t use non water soluble fragrance on it (*synthetic fragrance is not good for health either, not recommend to use it daily)
1.1) White dust/spot?

Look, the chair legs are originally brown

Any idea which is better?

while Optimus Black got better screen (NOVA), slightly cheaper, lighter and larger battery.
Both comes with 2.2Froyo but 2.3 on Optimus Black is confirmed, anyone has any idea on DHD? Official 2.3 coming?

3in1 printer

tehdynasty — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 21:31:36 +0800

I am considering to get one 3in1 printer

1) Canon MP145
2) HP F4280
3) HP F2280

I am not sure what's the difference between these few models as all their spec. are abt the same.
Which one has better print quality?
In terms of cost per page, which one is better?
and which model can put on CISS or refill the cartridge(prefer ink refill if CISS cost too much)?
Then what's the difference between F4280 and F2280 as both model has almost same spec?
Or any other better options?

Thanks in advance
