Changjiang W007 3.2″ touch screen phone review (Chinese fake)
Jan 29th
A couple of days ago I received in the post a brand new W007 mobile phone which I order on dealextreme.com. This suppose to be one of those phones which tries to fake iPhone mixed, I think, with the HTC G2 or something similar.
The price of the phone was $110, which from my standards, its more then a bargain. The phone has a 3.2″ touch screen, with some kick ass colors, I must add. Also included is support for 2 SIM’s, WiFi, Bluetooth, microSD, some kind of a multi-touch (maybe not, just some software emulation), TV, Radio, FM Transmiter, accelerometer and many more cool stuff, which some might use them and some might not.
The quality build of the phone it’s quite remarkable, was thinking is gonna suck big time, but I was really surprised. In general the phone is super well done, looking very nice and working the same. The only major or minor issue with it, it’s the cameras, there are 2 of them, but both of the suck, front camera is 0.3M pixel and the back one, I think, 1.3M pixel, but on the phone is written 12.1M pixel, which kind of sucks. Another bordering issue with the phone would be the multi-touch or the touch screen, which is not as responsive when using it with your fingers. If you are using the stylus, then everything works as it should, but if it’s an iPhone copy, well you aspect it to work like iPhone (more or less
).
TomTom likes Homer Simpson
Jul 2nd
Two, three days ago I was reading some blog on which it was announced that TomTom, the GPS device manufacturer, has released a new voice for their devices. This voice which can be downloaded and used with any TomTom GPS device is Homer Simpson’s voice. When I read at first I was thinking is some kind of a joke as Homer Simpson it’s not the most serious voice and in general character from a cartoon, but must admit quite funny.
iPhone and iBullshit
Jun 26th
First, let me draw you a picture of the idea which I wanna write. About 2 weeks ago Apple has release a new iPhone called 3G S, we are in an economical crisis, all over the world, which means there is no buying power from the consumers (more or less) and in the first week of the new iPhone, Apple has sold 1 million devices.
Now what the f*#?+ is wrong with this picture? I mean if we are in an economical crisis, which means the buying power is much lower then let’s say 2 years ago, how the hell can Apple sell 1 million device in the first week of it’s release? What the hell happened to our priorities, if there are so many issue with this economy, all over the world, less and less jobs and of course less and less money… how is it possible that 1 million people would buy without any issue this new iPhone only in US?
Easy money using Google AdSense
Jun 26th
This one, it’s pure bullshit, unless you are a drug dealer, pimp or you are involved with some underground cartel, you can’t make easy money. Not with Google AdSense or anything similar that anyway. There is a possibility using the idea of pay-per click to make money, but your web page or blog has to have something that will bring over 1000+ unique visitors, every day. The idea of pay-per click is simple, someone visits your web page or blog, sees the ad, sees something interesting and clicks on it. For each click, you get a certain amount of money, usually, no more then $0.2 per click, but if you put 1000 users clicking everyday day on the ads on you web page or blog, over one month you can get really a nice sum of money. The main problem is that even if there are 1000 uniq visitors, you can’t be sure that they will click on the ads and maybe 10-20% of those visitors will ever click on the ads. There also a different way to use your web page or blog and display ads, but it’s based on the idea of how many times the ads are displayed on your web page or blog. The idea, I think is called cost-per-thousand impressions, so this would mean somewhat that you wont be payed on clicks, but on visits on your web page or blog.
