            <title>Freeze dried / dehydrated fruits</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4924714</link>
            <description>Hello foodies,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any one here enjoy dried fruits? Can intro affordable dried fruit sources (online or physical store)? Prefer the freeze dried or dehydrator dried type because they are healthier than deep fried or sugared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Thai freeze dried durian stash is finishing and Malaysia dried durian is so expensive 😭</description>

            <description>Hi all, I&amp;#39;ll be moving to KL soon and I am looking to purchase a property for own stay. I am rather new to KL so would love to hear your opinions. My office is near KL Sentral so I&amp;#39;m looking at the following areas for the most convenience:&lt;br /&gt;- Bangsar&lt;br /&gt;- Mont Kiara&lt;br /&gt;- East side of PJ&lt;br /&gt;- Bangsar South&lt;br /&gt;- Seputeh&lt;br /&gt;- KL South/Old Klang Road&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My consideration points:&lt;br /&gt;- Budget: 600k and below&lt;br /&gt;- Rooms: Studio or 1BR or 2BR&lt;br /&gt;- Parking: 1 lot&lt;br /&gt;- Reputable developer&lt;br /&gt;- Furnishing: Partially or fully furnished&lt;br /&gt;- Building completion: Latest Q1 2020&lt;br /&gt;- Building age preferably &amp;lt;5 years (if above 5 years it needs to be very well-maintained)&lt;br /&gt;- Near LRT (direct link bridge would be good)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because I may be moving in a couple of years, the property needs to have a steady rental market (strategic location).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not sure if I should be considering anything else but happy to hear your opinions &lt;!--emo&amp;:)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; Thanks for reading and helping out&amp;#33;</description>

            <title>Apple iPhone vs. Nokia 5800</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/963268</link>
            <description>&lt;!--QuoteBegin--&gt;&lt;div class='quotetop'&gt;QUOTE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class='quotemain'&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEBegin--&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;21 Reasons Why Nokia 5800 is better than Apple Iphone&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1) Size&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The iphone is bigger in size and uneasy for one hand grip. Nokia 5800 is designed to fit well into your hands. Being smaller in width, it’s easy to operate single handedly.&lt;br /&gt;Iphone size: 115.5 X 62.1 X 12.3 mm&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800 size: 111 X 51.7 X 15.5 mm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2) Weight&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone is much bulkier than Nokia 5800. Nokia 5800 is 25g lighter than Iphone in weight.&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: 133g&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: 109g&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Screen Resolution&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Iphone has 3.5” screen while Nokia 5800 has 3.2” but the resolution of 5800 is far more superior to Iphone.&lt;br /&gt;Resolution:&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: 480 by 320&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: 640 by 360&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) Storage&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone comes with two options- 8GB &amp;amp; 16GB internal memory. Nokia has a more flexible option to offer 8GB with micro SD card which is expandable upto 16GB. Nokia owners can expand memory size according to needs which the Iphone guys can’t do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Input Methods&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Finger only.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Finger, stylus, plectrum, handwriting recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6) Features&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apple Iphone has lots of missing features like cut and paste function, saving email attachments, no support for third party headphones, ringtones, applications, many software bugs and other technical glitches. Nokia 5800 Tube has no such issues plus many more amazingfeatures included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;7) Colors&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Black for 8 &amp;amp; 16 GB, White for 16 GB only.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Red, Blue and Black.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8 ) Battery&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800 provides upto 35 hrs of music playing time against Apple Iphone which claims just 24 hrs. Overall battery power (talktime/standby) is also about 30% more in Nokia 5800. What more, 5800 has a removable battery which Iphone lacks.&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: 5 hrs talk-time, 300 hrs standby, not removable.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: 8.8 hrs talk-time, 406 hrs standby, removable battery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9) Camera&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: 2 MP, no flash, no zoom, no additional camera.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: has a 3.2mp camera, 3x digital zoom with Carl Zeiss lens,professional optics, autofocus, zoom, and flash compared to the iphones 2mp cheap optics. A second camera in front is available for video calling/conferencing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10) Video Calling&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: No Video calling possible in Iphone.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Video calling is possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;11) Video Recording&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IPhone: No option for video recording.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Video recording is included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;12) Music Service&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Paid service with Apple Itunes Store. You pay and download music to your Iphone.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: “Comes with music” service is bundled with Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic phone by which you can download as much music as you want for 1 year- FREE&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;13) Voice Dialing&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Not Available&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Available&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;14) Voice Recording&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IPhone: Not Available&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Available&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;15) Web Browser&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Webkit based Safari browser, no flash available.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Webkit based browser, supports flash lite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;16) FM Radio&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Not Available&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Available&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;17) Bluetooth&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: Bluetooth is available for just handsfree, no file sharing possible.&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: Bluetooth available for handsfree and file sharing is possible. Better audio quality on bluetooth in 5800 with A2DP technology which Iphone lacks. The 5800 supports stereo bluetooth. The iphone does not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;18) Messaging&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iphone: It does not support message forwarding, multiple SMS deletion, sending SMS to multiple recipients and multimedia messages (MMS).&lt;br /&gt;Nokia 5800: All the above is possible plus it has MMS ver 1.3, message size upto 600kb, and automatic resizing of Images for MMS.19) GPS The Nokia 5800 has a GPS receiver with turn by turn directions. The iphone does not have turn by turn&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;20) The OS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 5800 runs symbian s60 which means that you have the ability to install any number of programs on it, such as a different internet browser or multimedia player. Apple does not allow apps in the app store that mimic the official apps. there are internet browsers available for the 5800 that have embedded flash. the safari browser on the iphone is html only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;21) Experience&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nokia: Ages of experience, hundreds of success stories and dozens of smart handsets in current portfolio. Nokia has about 40% market share with the No.1 spot with no close competitors. Certainly the king when it comes to brand value, service and experience.&lt;br /&gt;Apple: First phone ever launched by Apple is Iphone, no prior experience in the telecom market. It’s a novice in the market with a very less market share despite having millions of Iphone sold.&lt;!--QuoteEnd--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEEnd--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m looking to get a new phone and I&amp;#39;ve narrowed down my options to these two phones. This is what I&amp;#39;ve found on the net, but I&amp;#39;m afraid that what I read is prejudiced. Therefore, I would like to get more feedback from iPhone users (if possible, Nokia 5800 users too) and your opinion on which is the better model.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please assist me on my choice. Thanks  &lt;!--emo&amp;:lol:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>
