ShopBlackBerry on sale

Hi guys. Just saw from ShopBlackBerry site that prices for selected phones were slashed. Passport is cheaper by $100 while the Z30 was only $225!

Z30 is now out of stock but the price was slashed over 50%! I'm wondering if the US LTE version will work here or not.
Do SBB ship to Malaysia and will the item be taxed?

Anyone bought phone from SBB?

Really tempted to buy.... if the phone is back in stock.

Thx.

Confused

Hi!

I'm planning to get a PS4 later this year for my son. Been browsing and googling to see what type of console to get. It's been a toss between XB1 and PS4; and I've decide to get the PS.

Been reading a bit but I'm getting confused. There are many different country specs of PS4 (if I get it correctly); Jpn, SEA, US, Asia etc... are these all the same?

Is it better to get one from Sony Centre or buy online? If online, any recommendation? Sony Centre's prices are quite steep..... but at least I know warranty won't be an issue. If I get a Singapore unit, will the warranty be covered here?

Do I need to pay if I want to get connected and play online with friends?

Appreciate any inputs and sorry for the noob questions.

Help needed

I have an old Panasonic camcorder NV-GS75 and I want to use it as my webcam with the Sharp Aquos tv. My TV is connected to the UNIFI and I want to use Skype.

Any idea how to connect as I know the Pana camcorder can be used as a webcam. Can it tbe connected directly to a TV or just to a PC?

Thanks.

BB10

It's been widely reported that RIM will launch a new line of phones by year end; known as BB10. From the first look at the Alpha Dev phone , things looked promising. BB10 might just make or BlackBerry.

What do you guys think about BB10. I'm actually delaying getting an upgrade from my Bold 9700 and resisting SIII just to wait for it to come to Malaysia.

If the local distributor played by their game well and be aggressive, it might even give Apple and Samsung a good fight for the smartphone market. RIM is already lagging behind, another screw up will surely means the end of BB.

9700 memory leak

Need advise from sifus here. My Bold 9700 always need batt pull to 'rediscover' its memory! Sometimes will drop to 0MB, abd when did a bett pull, it'll show 14MB+, then slowly (but surely) memory level will drop until 0MB again!

I don't have much apps; only few but vital ones like FB, Whatsapp, Blackberry Protect, Ubersocial, Shazam and ScoreMobile.

Anyway to prevent memory loss? Running on v6.0.0.448, platform 6.6.0.124

Appreciate the advise.....
