Hello ! I know it's been an awfully long time since I ever appeared here, but it's not like I can help it :( My finals finished about a month ago, and since then I've attended a couple more weddings, a holiday or two, tons of shopping sprees & best of all, the Moovement 2011 ! :) More on that in a few more posts to come.
Today, I've decided to update because I woke up earlier than usual, and before I head out, I thought I'd just give a quick update on my life. Sort of. I've been checking the visitor count (hahaha, so self-absorbed) on my blog & my daily view count hasn't been going any lower, so I know you guys are regularly checking for updates. So I'm really sorry in advance !
Okay, so to start this post off, I'm sure majority of my readers/Twitter followers/Facebook friends, or stalkers, know that I am an avid smartphone user. Basically, I'm just a sucker for new tech gadgets and such.
Awhile ago, back in June actually, I switched my black iPhone for a white one, simply because I thought it looked more feminine -_-


and until this day, I'm still the proud owner of my amazingly beautiful white iPhone 4. And not long after I bought my white iPhone, this is what came in the mail !


the iPad 2, also very white & beautiful.Previously, I owned the first generation Macbook, from waaaaaaaaaaay back when I was 14. And it's currently brain-dead. And also I still have my first generation iPod touch, which is still alive and used to store songs as backup.
Despite being a huge Apple gadget geek,

things have to change.. Right ? So in the middle of everything, I got a Blackberry Bold 2.

with my Gong Cha ^_^And after that, I also became an avid Blackberry user ! I find it very convenient for all my social networking thingos that I use daily. At that time, I used Digi because my friends convinced me it was the cheapest.

If I remember correctly, at that time it was RM2 a day for Unlimited BIS, which to me, is crazy expensive because it meant having to pay RM60 for a whole month.
But, I slaved through it, and eventually the price went down to 98sen/day. Which was still 30 bucks. And then they came out with this thing that you paid only RM25/month. Which was much cheaper.
Through all my exams and everything, I eventually stopped using my Blackberry entirely because of the annoying hassle of trying to reload my Digi number because for no reason, it kept draining my credit. I didn't text or call anyone, so I didn't see where my money was going to.
Eventually, I sold off my Bold 2, and now I'm a proud owner of the,

Torch 9850!Been having this baby for almost a month and it's amazing. Fast, reliable and extremely user-friendly. But here's a twist, I stopped using Digi entirely. Because, I've found something much better!

UMOBILE!Everyone condemns UMobile because they say it's not an established company, etc etc. People say the line is bad and all that, but to be honest, Digi's line is far worse. I can't even get Digi 3G in my own house. I have had NO problems with UMobile so far. The best thing about their 3G line, is that they're tied with Celcom ! So anywhere you're unable to get UMobile 3G, the Celcom line steps in, and ta-da you have 3G. And you gotta bear in mind that Celcom does indeed have the largest coverage in Malaysia.
That's not the only reason I switched. Another reason is because of the extremely cheap rates. I'm paying only RM19/month for unlimited Blackberry services. NINETEEN. THATS CRAZY.
Another thing is that, even if you're not a Blackberry user, for RM68 a month, you can get 3GB of data, 150 minutes of calls to UMobile, 150 minutes of calls to other lines, etc etc. Just going to emphasize on that 3GB of data. Which is impossible to even get in Maxis. Because Maxis' 2GB/month without calls and smses is RM155.
And if you use prepaid (like me), when you reload RM10, you can 10 days of free calls. When you reload RM30, you can get 30 days of free calls.
And instead of the usual, you top up RM10, you can only use for 10 days, in UMobile, if you top up RM10, you can get 30 days ! If you top up RM30, you can get 90 days! This means your credit won't expire as fast as you using it.

Here's my new Torch powered by uMobile's BIS serviceI'm not working for uMobile or anything like that. They're not paying me. Hahaha, but I just thought I'd share something good with everyone because people constantly complain about Digi's cheap rates but extremely horrible line. So why not use something that has both cheap rates and good line ? :)
