blackberry 9700 on hand-no flash support!?!

One of the reason we upgraded to the new blackberries is that flash support they were talking about in their specs.

Media Player

  • Video format support: XviD partially supported, H.263, H.264, WMV3, MPEG4, Sorenson Spark & On2 VP6 (Flash support)
  • Audio format support: .3gp, MP3, WMA9 (.wma/.asf), WMA9 Pro / WMA 10, MIDI, AMR-NB, Professional AAC/AAC+/eAAC+

but after reading a couple of articles out from the web it looks like they haven’t come up with the software to play those damn flash videos!!!  sucks!

HP Pavillion DX6500 DVD drive removal/replacement tips

Faced with a stuck dvd drive button I need to find out how to remove the whole dvd drive unit from the HP Pavillion dc6500 laptop.

I  scoured the net and found this wonderful and helpful website filled with laptop tips!

the instructions stated to remove the single screw holding the dvd drive and all you have to do is pull it out gently.

So after I removed the dvd drive pushed the plastic tabs (CAREFULLY!) that holds the front cover of the dvd drive and it released the stucked button.

Then just put everything back together and you are done!

Taking down Xmas lights inside the house

It’s 26 degrees outside and I thought I’ll start tidying up from the inside 1st.  Took down the christmas lights  from the windows, gather up all the suction cups including that giant suction cup hooks that I purchased from Lowes before Christmas. Wrapped the christmas lights up and labeled them so it won’t be too confusing when I need to put them back this year 2010 christmas.

Which made me think…may trabaho pa kaya ako pag dating ng Christmas 2010? Sobra kasing matindi ang labanan ngayon…Sana nga..

I think headaches gone…

2 days of suffering from migrane. But the thing is I’m not really sure if it’s a tually a migrane since the pain was coming from the back of my neck.
But after I drank coffee I think it slowly went away. Maybe it’s coffee withdrawal again.
Also experiencing post holiday blues..hope I’ll survive Monday…

Happy New Year 2010!

1st post for this new year 2010! Hello all! I hope this year would be better than 2009.

Lots of plans to make and complete. Tasks from 2009 to finish so we can move forward.  All inhibitions and procrastinations will be eliminated and this year I will start it with the ‘just do it!’ attitude!

So 2010, Bring it On!!

Being brave and installing Windows 7 on my Duron 1.2ghz

The last time I ran the Windows 7 advisor it choked on my 700+ megs memory with a couple of outdated drivers.  So main concern was the memory requirement. Ran to Fry’s Elec. and scored me a 2 gig ddr 400mhz Dual kit for $70+ (don’t you just love instant gratification at a premium?)

Now running the custom installation – clean installation to be exact.

It was supposed to prompt me for a x32 and x64 installation but just saw a x86 installation. well I guess that would be it since my old computer is still on a Duron 1.2 processor!

It’s currently on the second stage right now..lot more step to go..hope it won’t be too painful…

Got an Ipod touch 3rd generation for Xmas!

Woot! woot! Got my 1st ipod this christmas!

ipod-touch-3rdDo you need to find out if your ipod touch is a 2nd generation or 3rd generation?
The late 2009 Ipod touch 3rd generation can be identified by looking at the back of the ipod touch.  All iPod touch 3rd generation have 2 or 3 lines of text below the capacity engraving.

The prior iPod touch 2nd generation had four lines of text of more below the capacity engraving.

Even though I’m still drooling over my new iPod touch I still hate typing on this thing!

Merry Christmas in 2009!

Christmas by the fireplace

Christmas by the fireplace

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas this 2009!

Slap! Dallas Cowboys beat New Orleans Saints 24-17!

Blackberry email down in North America

My blackberry email service stop around 7:39am this morning of December 17, 2009 but apparently the RIM BIS server had been having issues since Wed Dec 16, 2009 late night. Some of my emails were delayed. To this minute they are still trying to resolve the problem.
This blackberry down time only affects BIS (Blackberry Internet Service) but not the corporate customers that uses the Blackberry Enterprise Service (BES)
Blackberry Enterprise Service connects thru their own corporate server with an add-on software to link to their email system such as Microsoft Exchange Server.
Blackberry Internet Service connects thru the Internet service that blackberry host on their server.

So now I am having a bb withdrawal syndrome! aaarrrggghhhhh!!!!
