Handphones Dilemma

I don't know why it takes me so long to make decision in buying handphones.

My old Nokia 6670, though still faithful and going strong, is, I'm afraid, too slow for my pace nowadays. Have been toying the idea of changing phones since end of last year and as usual, my choice is always Nokia. My choice then was either Nokia N81 or N73. Then after I have made up my mind in getting N73, I was told there is no maroon colour body for an original set. Thus, the delay in buying.

However, of late, I noticed that checking and retrieving of emails have became very crucial for my line of duty and thus, been introduced to Mr blueberry blackberry. Also, at the same time, I noticed that my ever faithful Digi hidup is not been very kind to my pocket. So, cost cutting exercise comes in..Can't let my loyalty overrule my pocket mah. Thus, with the new purchase of handphone, I will switch telco (to which telco, it's for me to find out)

Now, I need help from all blackberry users out there who are reading my blog. Give me one reason why I should buy/not buy. Honestly, I have been asking 4 people on Blackberry and I must say all the feedbacks are good.

So, people, please help Papercrazy!!!

Things that can go wrong

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I am so frustrated now I could just open up the window of my office on the 7th floor and jump down together with my Dell Laptop.

When things are so crucial and we have only less than 4 days to the opening of the Mall, my laptop suddenly died on me and a message stating non-detection of hard disk drive kept on appearing everytime I reboot my pc. Called Dell Technical Support for assistance just to have them confirming my worst nightmare, the hard disk corrupted!

And to make matter worst, I dun even back up a single Farking files in my laptop despite having an external hard disk and now I am as good as DEAD

I cudn't afford to waste even one single minute and this has to happened!!! Wonder what's next for the Devil???

Despite the ever friendly customer service agent at Dell, they are not able to replace the hard disk for me until Wednesday. Huh? Thought I heard someone saying it's an excuse for me to relax while waiting for them to replace?? Honestly, I COULDN'T AFFORD TO RELAX!!!

I need to get all my paper works ready by Wednesday and there are several crucial files in my laptop that needs my attention. I seriously pray that the files in the hard disk can be recovered, otherwise, I might as well pack my bags, write a farewell notes and jump into the Sarawak River

Let's cycle instead of drive

Ok people...guess the government is really telling us one thing "Stay at home more often, don't drive out unneccesarily" or better still "Don't try to show off by driving cars around town". Read the latest Star

Really don't know how to survive anymore...Monthly salary is not even enough to cover for petrol, car and soon the increase in utility. Sigh....might as well stay at home...since it will cost me less, no need to pump petrol, no need to pay for car and as for the utility lei, just buy kerosene lamp lor...but next problem arised - kerosene price also naik...double sigh

One consolation nia from the announcement - we are getting an annual cash rebate of RM652 for vehicle less than 2,000cc (At this point, I am so glad I don't own any big car). After calculate calculate, with the rebate included, the increase does not sound that scary anymore. Just that we have to forked out cash advance in pumping petrol before we are able to get the rebate. (FYI, rebate will only be forwarded to you once you renew your annual road tax)

This system reminds me of the Income Tax. You are asked to pay first, then get refund later. And Yes, same rule apply for the petrol - U PAY NOW, REBATE WILL COME BUT DON'T KNOW WHEN.

SIGHHHHHHHHH....
