Apple Education!!

GOKIL!!! APPLE GOKIL!!

maap, emosi, napsu! hahaha... gw takjub banget ama Apple yang mikirin segment pendidikan! segment yang, iya deh menghasilkan duit buat Apple,.. tapi apa salahnya klo emang bisa bikin yang males sekolah jadi semangat, yang males ngajar jadi semangat? apalagi buka kesempatan buat yang pengen nulis bukuuu??

ok ok.. napas yo.. gini ni ceritanya..

semalem, waktu Indonesia tengah malem. Apple ada event di Musium Guggenheim, New York. mereka launch beberapa product: iBooks2, iTunes U, iBookstore & iBooks Author. nanti gw jelasin 1-1..

ini sih gokil! liat presentasinya disini.. ah yo.. sabarlaaah...

iBooks2

dasarnya iBooks itu mengubah kebiasaan baca buku. Buku itu berat, mahal, ga interaktif, ga bs diupdate, & ga bagus buat lingkungan (kertas, kayu, global warming). Iya deh klo ada yg bilang, baca buku itu beda rasanya, nyium bau pas baru,.. bisa pamer ke orang lagi baca apa (klo ipad kan dari belakang ga keliatan) .. iya iya.. tapi big picturenya dong! ;)

Buku itu mahal, buku kuliah itu ada yg sampe ratusan dolar lho! 1 buku!!! gw jamin, untuk judul yang sama, iBook pasti lebih murah! Buku itu pada umumnya berat.. apalagi yg khusus ke buku pelajaran.. & inget, buku pelajaran (kurikulum) itu terus diupdate, bikin kita harus beli terus tiap ada yg baru.. iBooks makes it cheaper & easier.. malah nyediain yg cuma bagian yg terupdate aja! ga usah semuanya..

Dan.. saya agak sedikit pemeluk pohon nih.. Semakin banyak kebutuhan buku, semakin banyak pohon ditebang! why don't we go green?

Hence comes iBooks2:

iBooks 2 sedikit lebih interactive dibanding yg pertama.. dia skrg ada audio, video & 3D mapping. liat keynote presentationnya.. perhatiin waktu di bagian buku biologi, bagian sel.. sel itu bisa diputer2.. itu 3D. sangat mangat membantu mengerti!

inget iBooks pertama bisa bookmark, bisa cari arti kata di kamus? iBooks2 sekarang, bukunya bisa di-stabillo-in, dimarker, di highlight, trus dikasih catetan! kurang apa lagi? oh iya, FREE! GRATIS!

Ntar dulu, apple ga berenti sampe situ...

iBooks Author

Software yang uda bisa di-download di App Store mulai hari ini, fungsinya untuk, simple,.. bikin buku! Sekarang, siapa aja bisa bikin buku, tanpa lewat publisher! Download, tulis, design, upload, jual, dapet duit, kaya, bagi2 guwe!! simple kan?

iBooks Author bisa bikin iBooks yang interactive, ada gambar, suara, video & 3D mapping! termasuk masukin keynote / presentasi yang uda dibikin! kurang apa lagi? oh iya, FREE! GRATIS!

Jualnya gmn? kirim ke Apple, otomatis akan ada bagian sendiri namanya iBooksStore bahkan ada yang khusus pendidikan, textbooks! .. dibawah $15 murid sma bisa dapet buku yang selalu terupdate! setiap kurikulum ganti, ga usah beli lagi. tinggal download, ga berat, ga mahal.. sayangnya.. baru di US nih.. tentu beda di setiap negara, beda kurikulum, beda sistem pendidikannya.. tapi bayangin aja klo disini juga bisa begitu.. bs ngurangin korupsi di dunia pendidikan.. kaya guru2 yang nganjurin beli buku lewat dia? kali ini at least harus usaha, "bikin buku sendiri, trus jual di apple dong pak!" :P

saingan ama nulisbuku.com nih..

Coba browsing appstore, itunes store.. donlot2 aja tu semua.. iBooks2, iBooks Author, iTunes U & liat2 iBooksStore. Jangan lupa juga update iTunesnya ke 10.5.3, yang juga launch hari ini, siap integrasi sama launching2 yang lain.\

Apple ini pinter yee, disaat produsen lain pada balapan bagusin Operating system, launching produk, banyakin model produk.. Apple konsen ke pendidikan... inget ya.. iBooks paling enak dibaca di iPad.. untungnya buat Apple? orang makin terikat ke iPad daripada tab lain! berapa banyak anak sekolah???

Selain itu, bayangin berapa orang mo nulis buku?? AppStore, yang udah lebih kaya daripada RIM, bakal lebih besar lagi! jual apps, games, lagu, podcast, acara tv, film, buku umum, skrg buku sekolah!!

Dan, kontribusi secara sosialnya juga ada lah.. memajukan dunia pendidikan US. Apple ini bikin gw antara mo sekolah lagi, mo ngajar, atau mo nulis buku! Geez.. mudah2an sistem pendidikan Indonesia bisa ngikutin perkembangan ini.. Adapt, adapt adapt!!

Smart Ass! I Love you Apple! Pfft

Who's gonna lead 2012 in Indonesian gadget industry?

2012-01-15T20:30:00.000-08:00

Good day..

Jakarta shows 11.34 and its one bright day! Today is 14 Jan 2012. 2012 is the year of Dragon according to the Chinese. China happens to be a big producer of gadgets. Some would probably say best "plagiarist" of gadgets. In 2011, China, as a country, sold millions of generic gadgets worldwide. What I mean with "generic gadgets" is that usually mobile phones that is produced brand-less that is ready to be exported overseas and re-brand! local example might be Ti-Phone, Nexian, Blueberry, etc... I can't even named them all.

*btw, speaking of Ti-Phone, congrats for its IPO, sold its stock at Rp. 315 a piece and gained 20% instantly!

Back to topic, who will lead 2012? which International brand will stand firmly here in Indonesia? who's gonna come in? who's gonna bail? and who's gonna win?

Lets see, in 2011, during the MarkPlus Conference in Pacific Place last month, December. GabEl (Gabungan Elektronik) announced that there were an increase of 25% in the electronic sector. This includes the increase in the sales of Flat Screen TV (LCD, LED, 3D), washing machine, fridge, and mobile devices (smartphones, mobile phones & tablets). 25% is the biggest increase.

In TV, Korea standing firm in the market with Samsung & LG as their market leader. They have LCD, LED, 3D up to internet TV that is "affordable" I'd still say affordable if its compared to Japanese products and better quality compared to Chinese. I use LG internet TV and Samsung LED myself.. I love them both, but Samsung is slightly pricier than LG here.

This goes the same to home appliances as well, with LG growing stronger due to the prices! LGs are cheaper!

What happens to mobile?

Mobile in future are getting stronger and stronger. Indonesia has grown to be top 3 in the world in Twitter, Facebook and Blackberry! (I bet if combined, we are number 1) Something to be proud of? :|

According to the report made by Deloitte Access Economics entitled "Nusantara Terhubung - Peran Internet dalam pembangunan ekonomi Indonesia", the Internet contributes of 1.6% of Indonesia's gross domestic product. It is predicted to increase by 300% over the next 5 years. By 2016, it will be 2.5% of Indonesia's PDB (Produk Domestik Bruto)

Internet Fixed bandwidth penetration are considered low (9%) compared to China (34%), Malaysia (55.3%) and Vietnam (27.6%). However, mobile internet are cheaper!! this is the emphasizing reason why people buy more and more phones! In 2010, there are 220 million mobile phones accounted for, including the individuals who have more than 1 phone. Now, as I write this down, there are more mobile phones used in Indonesia then the user!

Mobile phone sales, will surely increase! on the generic phones, we have more and more Chinese product coming, considering more and more distributors here (I've mention above). With TiPhone go public, KohHengky will boost up sales, specialized phones!

Smartphones and tablets? I'd like to divide these up based on its operating system. Its a fight between must-have Blackberry OS, the elegant iOS and the strong-rising Android. All are gonna be stronger because of the data connection rates that is always decreasing, and the power of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Plurk, Path, Pinterest, Google+, YouTube and browsers

I've reviewed whats wrong with Blackberry OS few days ago. I think they will only survive based on its Blackberry Messenger alone.

What about iOS? they will have its own marketshare based on exclusivity! At the moment, to me, they provide the best mobil photography, no matter what's your iDevice, you can always edit it, and upload to Instagram, and be loved! At the moment, Instagram only available here! and the strength of AppStore will play part on its life.

Here comes the next big(ger) thing! Android! Android, with its open source Operating System, makes it easier to be widely spread, from Chinese generic phones, to American old-timer! it makes it a generic operating system as well. There is a problem with that. Developers might find it difficult to produce app considering its non-uniqness.. The difference of screen sizes, resolution, processor etc makes them difficult to adjust. and there's also the famous "Why I hate Android?" writing on the web, which I RT a few days ago. ... However! who cares??? users don't care! they want cheap, sophisticated phones! they want this OS goes on the phone they want!! they want choices! am I right??

Coming to that, in Android, straight to it I'm gonna say Samsung will lead the way in 2012. Samsung is putting all their resources on screen development. Look at their super thin LED TV! they put that on the mobile phones, and comes (so far the strongest) is Galaxy S2 & Galaxy Note with its Super AMOLED plus screen!! Madness!!! their tab, their smaller galaxies, and the next one coming is.. Galaxy Nexus! Their investment on screen development will pay its worth! with Instagram is coming on Android? stronger Android Market? Samsung is ready!

Lets see how they play with Bada (their new operating system)

There goes my small preview of 2012. Its arguable. lets discuss! I'm waiting, while I'm digesting my vegetarian diet! come on! :)

Blackberry Messenger 6.1.0.49: chat with new emoticons & color bubbles!

2012-01-10T20:09:00.000-08:00

To be honest, as much as I wanna avoid Blackberry.. I can't get rid of the blackberry messenger! There's one group I love who just makes me laugh a bit too much. We are liking the same thing, football, but the discussion goes absolutely everywhere! Got my girlfriend wondering who am I chatting to.

And now, BBM goes updated to version 6.1.0.49. grab it here.

Here's whats new:

New on the latest version of BBM:
- Support for Animated Avatars - display pictures can now be animated!
- Enjoy a new selection of Emoticons
- Double the space to update your Personal Messages
- Customize the colour of chat bubbles for your contacts
- Simpler display picture update from the camera app –
snap a picture and display it on BBM right away

To me, I'm sadly a huge fan of the emoticons, those 4L4y would use.. I don't care what you think of me, its fun! brightens up my screen :D .. Look!!

We got about 11 new emoticons.. I like the one with the black eye and missing tooth!! looks like someone just had a long night! Got beaten up in a bar.

We can personalize our private chat screen with colors! here's how to do that:

Go "View contact profile" on a certain contact, then set it to different color, just under the PIN Barcode. Try try! set green for your wife/husband, set red for your lover!! ouch!

Remember Ario, the pre-requisite for an affair.. is for you to be married!!! -____- #notetoself

anyway, back to topic,..
other than those two new features, the new bbm also able to animate your profile picture. To do this, you need to find an animated gif file. not jpg file. or use the given ones like these:

There's also a shortcut from a picture or a camera to set as profile picture

BUT!, there's always a "but".. I feel that the group is where the problem will lies. People, especially us Indos, got carried away with groups. Chat, post pics, adding 30 members... to 30 GROUPS! setting the chat options to FOREVER!!.. this will slow your BB down and eventually error 529 like what happened to me last night -_____-

so be careful with groups! always set the chat option to maximum 3 days, don't post too many pics and less the chatting, get a life!! *sodorin kaca*

bye now! have a brilliant life.. virtually!

RIM and its OS7

2012-01-09T19:25:00.000-08:00

Good morning readers!

I just twitted some of my (and my friends') experiences on blackberry, particularly, OS7. which I think is the least successful operating system, if its compared to iOS and Android or even Windows Mobile.

Some of you might already know what's happening with RIM (Research In Motion, the producer of Blackberry). Worldwide, there are news of its decreasing share prices, even some says its worth lower than Apple's AppStore alone. Due to this decrease, there are rumors of the duo CEO is resigning, takes responsibility on it.

That's worldwide.. in Indonesia alone, RIM also have some disagreements with the government concerning investments. They made tons of money in Indonesia, but opened a factory in Malaysia. What do you say to that? .. and the latest? their Bellagio launch in Pacific Place that caused people fainted, broken bones & furious (in a random order).

One of the key reason is the quality of the product itself.. here are several of my tweets:

"@sheggario: Morning. Lemme share you me & my friends' problems on blackberry OS7!! #os7errors"

"@sheggario: Mr. @rezasumendap , dakota, just fixed his flash memory, hardware problem! #os7errors"

"@sheggario: Mrs. @monicagun , bellagio, just lost all her data (contacts, calendars, photos) for no reason, after a simple restart. #os7errors

"@sheggario: Ms. @nuchabachri , dakota, keeps getting very-dark-screen-but-still-working..very odd! #os7errors"

"@sheggario: Mr. @BaraTampubolon , dakota, complains about battery life..who doesn't? #os7errors"

"@sheggario: My dakota used to have "error 517" regularly & "error 501" eventually.. Now? Better on 9900/7.0.0.474 #os7errors"

"@sheggario: Tested bellagio myself, went dead after joining my 8th bbm groups, while I have 22. #os7errors"

"@sheggario: Another #os7errors RT @ichangga: @sheggario aku juga pernah tuh 507... Akhirnya repair sendiri... Br kmrn.."

----

so we'll see.. will RIM survive? comments?

From the way I see it, its gonna be challenging. Competitors are getting stronger. Besides Android & iOS, Windows mobile with Nokia Lumia, HTC Titan is just around the corner, ready to make a comeback! other than that, Samsung also preparing themselves with their very own operating system called BADA.

I say: "RIM would definitely a goner without Indonesia!"

Review: Blackberry Bellagio 9790

2012-01-08T20:50:00.000-08:00

I'm gonna make this sweet short simple..

I've dedicated my time to testing out Bellagio. The one phone that shocked Indonesia with its launch!. Remember the queuing at Pacific Place that caused injuries to people? Yeah! that one!

RIM is having its most difficult time of its life. Its shows on the decreasing price of the shares, the rumors of its duo CEO resigning and ummm.. the quality of the product? You can be the judge of this, really.

Indonesia, I think, is the only country now who is addicted to Blackberry. I had a dinner meeting in Singapore where there were 10 of us and I'm the only one using Blackberry and the other were on iPhones! in US. 80% are on Android & iOS!

Bellagio is the latest Blackberry to be launched here (so far). The launch was huge! Rumors are, 5000 people came and were promised that the first 1000 will get 50% discount (2.3mil). Rumors also said that the fainted one and his/her friend got'em for free as well!.. Who was there? care to share?

Form Factor:

The "big" thing about Bellagio is that.. its Small! Have you seen its billboard around Jakarta that shows its picture from the side?. Funny thing is.. based on the specs, Blackberry Apollo is actually thinner! 11.4mm vs. 11mm!. hold on.. Dakota is 10.5mm!

Based on the three.. Apollo is the lightest, Dakota is the heaviest. Bellagio is the thickest, Dakota is the thinnest. Dakota has bigger screen, Bellagio relatively smaller, easier to hold. When it comes down to form factor, its all about preference, really. Some poeple like bigger phones (bigger screen), some like that fits well & easy to his/her pockets. How bout you?

What's Inside:

What matters usually processor & memory. It packs 1Ghz marvel tavor processor. Quite fast, but dakota is faster! packs the same memory, 768mb.

Everything else feels normal. Its OS7, the same with dakota, apollo, monza (the rest of the OS7 family). I have another point of view of this OS7 and its problems. I'll discuss it some other times on my blog maybe. Tried dakota & bellagio, both got problems!! latest OS for this is 7.0.0.557 from indosat. should work fine..

So...

+ :
* its small, light & easy to carry, slips right into your pocket.
* its reasonably affordable. Cheaper than dakota

- :
* its not as fast as expected (depending on the amount of BBM contacts & groups)
* kinda difficult to lock its key considering the lock button on top is abit hard

on an extra note, whichever phone you buy, make sure its Warrantied! never ever buy BM anymore! the smarter your phone gets, the bigger potential for problems :)

Hope it helps!

Be smarter than your Smartphone

2011-12-21T22:57:00.001-08:00

It crossed twitter few days ago a line saying "be smarter than your smart phone" I guess this hits me a bit with how things are now. Phones get smarter, but are we?

Pada dasarnya, telefon, handphone, tablet, pad, gadget,.. atau apapun itu, dibuat untuk mendukung kegiatan kita sehari-hari. Kata kunci? "mendukung". Saat ini tampaknya, seperti diperkirakan, keadaan agak sedikit berbelok dari niat awalnya. Gadget bukan lagi alat pendukung kegiatan.. atau sekedar alat komunikasi. Gadget itu .. Lifestyle, Fashion Statement, sampai status!

Things have evolve soooo fast! Sekarang bukan jaman 2 handphone lagi. 3!!. Salah satunya pasti ada Blackberry.! bener ga? Mulai dari Om-om yang bawa men purse sampai anak SMA. Dari tujuan "biar telpon murah, pake cdma.. yang 1 khusus buat nelpon" sampai "ini telpon kantor, ini pribadi".. ada juga ya "ini istri gw ga tau......" pfft!

Antrian gadget masih menjadi tren yang luar biasa. Tahun lalu kita dikagetkan dengan launching pertama nokia communicator di seluruh dunia yaitu di Indonesia,.. tahun ini adalagi dengan peluncuran Blackberry Bellagio yang juga pertama kali di dunia,.. di Indonesia. Bedanya, kali ini memakan korban sekitar 3 korban patah tulang dan 90 korban pingsan. Not bad lah ya? -____-

Tampaknya, Blackberry, yang kenyataannya di Amerika anjlok harga sahamnya, masih menjadi yang paling dibela-bela-patah-tulang-dan-pingsan di sini. Pangsa pasar operating system handphone di AS 80% dipegang iOS dan Android. Bahkan, Omset Appstore milik Apple, lebih tinggi dari Blackberry keseluruhan.

Lalu, Vertu makin banyak yang tidak takut memamerkannya! handphone mewah yang bisa mencapai ratusan juta ini ternyata tidak sendiri. Pernah dengar Gresso, Amosu?

Berapa banyak dari kita yang merasa harus memiliki gadget terbaru? baru memikirkan butuh atau tidaknya, belakangan? *disodorin cermin*

Yang terbaru, hadir dalam bentuk yang mempercantik gadget "biasa" yang sudah dimiliki. Dalam bentuk.. simple casing. Tapi, bukan casing biasa kalau tidak menyatakan status. Ini contoh leather case iPad dari Hermes yang harganya lebih mahal dari iPad-nya itu sendiri ($800 - $1400)

Itu hanya beberapa contoh tentang bagaimana sudah berkembangnya industry ini. Bagi para pengusaha tentu bisa melihat peluang yang luar biasa darinya.. mulai dari produksi gadget sendiri (contoh KohHengky dengan Ti-Phone-nya hihi) atau produksi casing aksesoris, content provider, sampai isi rington! (bukan ringtone)

Semua diatas sangat menjauh dari kegunaan gadget pada dasarnya yang merupakan pendukung kegiatan, untuk komunikasi, multimedia, organizer, atau bekerja itu sendiri. Tidak sedikit yang tidak tahu cara menggunakan meng-install aplikasi, mengunduh dan meng-edit dokumen,.. bahkan banyak yang lebih tahu cara menggunakan facebook dan twitter.

Gaptek masih jaman?

Setidaknya, semua gadget terbaru yang saya beli, saya ulik abis,.. selain cinta saya terhadap dunia teknologi tetapi juga menurut petuah tadi "Be Smarter than your Smartphone" .. Remember, it is human who create smartphones!

Reviewing the slim & sexy droid: Motorola RAZR Droid

2011-12-20T16:10:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I briefly tweet sneak review of Motorola RAZR. Now I'm gonna rewrite here, and dig deeper.

Here we go...

Okay you must remember Motorola had a phone launched named RAZR? the very slim one that comes in several colors? yeah! here comes the latest version! still slim, sexy but packed with a whole lots of new things (bigger, touch screen, and android!)

Mine is not for sale! haha!

I'll show you how slim is RAZR, comparing the old and new:

This time RAZR droid is 7.1mm.. the thinnest android phone compared to 8.49mm Samsung Galaxy S2 and 9.4mm iPhone 4S! sickishly slim! (is that even a word?)

Still on the form factor. I like the kevlar meet aluminum meet gorilla glass back cover that looks premium. I love it!

Lets move on and have a look at the battery. Bad thing is its irreplaceable (just like iPhone). Considering the size, I guess they MUST made it that way. Good thing is, its 1780mAh (onyx 2 1500mAh, Dakota 1230mAh, Samsung S2 1850mAh, iPhone 1420mAh).. but its only numbers. The life of your battery depends on its life cycle (how many times you charge it), the use (whether its 3G? wifi? bluetooth? applications on, screen brightness, etc.. etc..). It claims to survive 8hours. I don't have that much time to test it. I gotta return this sexy thing! *broken hearted*

The insights? we call this "jeroan" in Indonesia. It packs 1.2 Ghz dual processor, which is not the fastest out there and 1GB ram. Fast enough for a size this slim

Here's how phonearena compare it with Samsung S2 & IPhone 4S:

I promised you yesterday on my twit that I'm gonna share some pics result. Remember.. result also depend on the way you look at it! I mean.. DISPLAY! Here's how it looks on the phone comparing to iPhone 4 & Dakota:

Here's how it looks after I transferred it to computer:

Blackberry Dakota

Iphone 4

Motorola RAZR

The reason of why RAZR have more color on screen rather than after its being uploaded? the 4.2" Super AMOLED display that it has.

See.. super AMOLED is a new thing in display section. Samsung S2 uses super AMOLED Plus but RAZR support Pentile technology. AMOLED, for it to be easy lets say.... the black is REALLY BLACK! (relax Ario, we're not talking about skin color here, phew)

*the picture was taken at the same time. Sorry that I only have those other 2 phones with me*

What do you think?

Here comes the question. Why does it only packs with Android Gingerbread? not Honeycomb nor Ice Cream Sandwich? any andro geeks out there can help me with this? Gingerbread is 2 generation behind the new Ice Cream Sandwich (for those who are confused with all the FLAVORS here, I'm actually talking about the operating system and why its not the latest one)

Its a very sexy device that packs above average beef inside! with a price of less than 6 million Rupiah, I think its a catch! I give 9.5 for form factor and 9 for overall! its slim & sexy, who could resist? :')

iPhone 4S : Reviewed! -- in a comma --

2011-12-15T06:19:00.000-08:00

I've been doing this small survey on twitter asking my followers on which product I need to review. And, as promised, the winner is.... iPhone 4S.. with the total voters of... THREE! yeay.. out of over 1600 followers! I'm amazed of how enthusiast my followers are -_____- *yawn*

Imma do this review bilingual yeeeee... #justincase

iPhone 4S was already launched in several countries... dan Indonesia belum (surprise surprise). Gw beli i4S gw nitip dari temen di Perth. It cost me (di konversi) 7 juta. not bad for a iPhone 4S 16gb, early user! Waktu itu gw nitip 2, 1 buat temen gw, tompi, which is excited like a kid sitting in front of a chimney waiting for Santa on Christmas!

Basic knowledge on iPhone 4S:

1. first thing first is POWER. Jeroan 4S tumbuh! sekarang, iPhone 4S pake prosesor yang sama ama iPad 2. A5 dual core processor and a 512mb ram! anggep aja 20-30% lebih cepet, kira2! Make apps runs smoother, faster & less glitch, or hang, jam pasir, or whatevs...

2. it packs 8mp camera. I know "mp" doesn't mean a thing, kalo ga di print!, tapi, To me, iPhone4s is the best in MOBILE Photography! by far!! ini fotonya juara banget. Auto focus works fine, and the power of @instagram. Siapa yang ga tau instagram? online photo sharing community that changed the way people take photos on mobile phones!

3. SIRI: now how do I explain this.. Bahasa kerennya: "an intelligent software assistant and knowledge navigator functioning as a personal assistant application for iOS, anggep aja ada robot asisten pribadi di dalemnya!.

Siri adalah satu fitur yang harus diperhatikan di iPhone4S. Perlu diketahui bahwa Siri tidak menaruh database jawaban-jawaban atas pertanyaan kita, di dalam handphone.. tapi di simpan di server Apple. Yang artinya, setiap kita bertanya ke siri, Iphone4s akan mengirim rekaman suara pertanyaan kita, untuk dikirim ke server, dan kembali lagi dengan jawaban! So? it will cost you data connection! ini bahaya untuk yang paket dengan providernya, LIMITED! tanpa disadari, tagihan jebol!

Siri juga belum fully functional di Indonesia. terutama di semua hal yang berhubungan dengan lokasi.. misalnya tanya alamat, tanya restaurant, pompa bensin, ATM,... dll... yang sebenarnya sangat lancar di US

Siri juga sensitif menerima perbedaan aksen. Ada setting aksen US, Aus & UK. tolong ya diperhatikan.. thele is no Singapolean English laaaaaah

Kekurangan iPhone 4S yang lain adalah baterai. Sesuai hukum alam rimba dunia gadget. Semakin canggih suatu gadget, semakin banyak konsumsi listriknya. Artinya, batrenya semakin banyak kerja, borosssss.... dan ini diakui Apple. Hadirlah update iOS.. 5.0.1.

The following story might only be valid for my phone only.... here it goes:

I was so shocked knowing that my iPhone 4s went chaos after upgraded to iOS 5.0.1. It keeps losing signal without notice, and everytime it happens,.. satu satunya cara untuk bener? reset! Its not a freaking solution! Kenapa ini harus kejadian setelah Steve Jobs ga ada?? :S

Setelah browsing, it was between happy nor sad knowing I'm not the only one in the world. Silakan dibaca nih... https://discussions.apple.com/message/17004092#17004092

Jadi masalahnya ada di ketidakcocokan iOS 5.0.1 dengan SIM Card. Punya tompi ga masalah, punya gw MasyaAllah!! Gw pake XL (tompi T-sel) dan mereka ga bisa bantu karena XL belum menjual iPhone 4S. I'm well stuck!

Bottom line, I think you should postpone your intention buying iPhone4S until I SAY SO! hahaha.. I mean.. until Apple fix these problems (battery & sim compatibility). You might get lucky like Tompi, but hey.. who wants the risk!??

So I gotta spare iPhone4S lying around in a comma, waiting for an antidote from Apple. God save its soul!

HTC Flyer Review

2011-06-12T23:21:00.000-07:00

Yow yow... sup dawg? aslik norak!

So yeah, Ive been using HTC Flyer for about a week now and I think its due for a review. Shall we?

I've sold my 64gb iPad 3G to my dad including the casing and the keyboard for a fair price.. but.. the hassle is... It is easier to teach my 1 year old nephew than my 55year old dad! x_x.

Enuf for dad-bashing.. its time for the real review!

Operating System:

A huge difference on using an HTC is that it uses Android as its operating system, version 2.3 gingerbread to be exact. iPad uses iOS .. remember?

The main important difference between Android & iOS is that one is open source, one is not. Open source means, or at least one of it is, it can be use multi-hardware. Android spreads it users through HTC, Motorola, Google, Samsung, Asus, LG, even to those "2nd line" mobile devices like Nexian, BlueBerry, ti-phone... iOS only available in Apple devices (iPad, iPhone & iTouch).

Android 2.3 Gingerbread is not the latest. The latest is 3.0 Honeycomb while Apple is coming with iOS5. other than that.. I think its habitual (tergantung kebiasaan maksudnya kakaaaak)

Processor:

1.5 Ghz flyer & 1Ghz A5 for iPad: ofcourse Flyer wins this area. but what about the dual core processor from LG? Acer Iconia. @gadtorade claims that Flyer is faster?? I haven't tried the dual core tho..

Screen Size:

Flyer has the same screen size Samsung Galaxy Tab, which is smaller than iPad. 10" is nice to view but 7" is perfect to hold... what do you think? its all preference. I believe its equal when it comes to resolution.

Camera:

This part, Flyer wins BIG time against iPad! not because its 5mp is THAT good, but because iPad2 camera is THAT bad! (iPad 1 ga ada kamera cyin, ga usa rempong nanya deh)
Both has dual camera, I tried taking pictures with both devices, both cameras, and uploaded it to my mac.. pooff.. Flyer winsssssss!

Seems like I'm comparing it a lot to iPad. Don't be surprised coz I just converted from it.

What iPad wins is at its AppStore depth! there are more than 100,000 apps at AppStore compared to about 20,000 apps on Market (Android's application store).

And what about hacking/cracking... err.. jailbreaking?

iPad have it, installous.. so far its good for all devices running 4.3.3 and below... EXCEPT?? the iPad 2.. yes. its not jailbroken yet. Android? it has that kinda software called blapk market (www.blapkmarket.com). Register, and takes max 1 day to be approved.

What makes Flyer different to other tablet is its Magic PEN. This pen is not only styles, like back at windows mobile era. It actually an electrical pen that can be selectively active in selected area. Its quite different. its good for marking, highlighting text.. circling, etc...

The BAD?

err.. I gotta be objective:

1. The lack of accessories.. till now, I can't find a screen protector yet.. I believe its because of its not that popular yet.
2. The white leather case..I don't like it at all.. come on! white casing? zzzzzzz
3. The form factor: no device can beat Apple's beauty
4. this is THE WORST disadvantage: BATTERY! battery really drains fast, especially when you have the HSDPA, 3G, wifi on all at once! less than a day! .. apalagi klo main? :(

all in all.. its a challange to learn sumthin new! we'll see how I go with this ;) till then....

WWDC World Wide Developers Conference

2011-06-06T20:16:00.000-07:00

What is WWDC?

Its an apple famous event where they usually launch new product on a form of a neat, simple presentation, or should I say.. keynote!..

This morning .. till now.. I'm reporting the WWDC on my twitter: @sheggario .. so it won't be redundant, lemme just copy my twit here:

start from the very top:

"Good Morning! I'm watching WWDC @ apple.com! Have you?? You better!! :)"

"Apple big flops was MobileMe! now.. they get a chance to fix their name with iCloud.. we'll see Steve, we'll see... ;) #WWDC"

"Ati2 sesat! LOL RT @nuchabachri: @sheggario ai gak follow yor taimlain, but ai follow yu ;) :p"

"OSX Lion costs $29.99, iOS5 upgrade? FREE, iCloud? FREE .. thats how competitive the industry has become #WWDC"

"For Apple App's developers.1 tip, don't make apps too brilliant & essential or apple will steal them! :D (LockInfo, Zinio, Things) #WWDC"

"another thing on iCloud: .. think about this.. so apple have ALL your data on THEIR storage? what do you think? #WWDC"

and umm... bit of my sadness, my tears in Indonesia...

"I hope Steve Jobs can also give solution to our CRAPPY data connection! I'm talking bout all operators here! CRAP! :| #WWDC"

"That will be all folks! my report on #WWDC! gadget world has reached new level! I luuuvvvinnn it! back to trashy tweet! :D"

2011-05-29T20:15:00.001-07:00

Hey! whats with all the buzz about instagram?

Instagram is a err.. a new kind of social network that lets user to share photos, like them, and comment them! but, the beauty of it is that it lets users edit, add filter, tilt & shape, etc! so its kinda like a social network to brag about their photos! I'll show you my pictures on instagram! I'll let you know on a different post on HOW to do it! it involves not only instagram ;)

*pictures are all created using ONLY an iPhone4 and they are copyrighted :)

The talk of the town... iPad2

2011-05-26T18:48:00.000-07:00

Hey! its been ages since I fill this blog. I remember I was writing my last one with a baby dinosaur on my lap... Now I'm writing watching bulls' new era under Derrick Rose.. that long?

Lately, I got so many iPhone, iPad to Jailbreak.. mostly are iPhone 4 & iPad 1.. on firmware 4.3.3, its very doable and very straight forward really. Not getting any request for iPhone 3G & 3Gs coz their old. But what about iPad 2? this soon-to-come-officially gadget is the talk of the town. "should I get one?" "should I sell my iPad 1 now? and save for iPad 2?" so many ways to answer this subjectively. Let me start comparing.

iPad 2 compared to iPad 1:

Yes, its better! in what way? It is true that its slimmer, lighter and most importantly.. faster! .. has an A5 processor with white & black front finish. I still prefer the black finish but some of you might think it differently!

The fact that it is lighter and slimmer is also an advantage. Kinda tiring to read ibooks, webpages, or anything on iPad 1 considering its weight! LLP = Lama Lama Pegel! :|

1 significant thing that makes iPad 2 better than 1? is the camera! iPad 2 has 2 cameras .. back & front! back for taking pictures, front for facetime! BUT! (a big BUT, not BUTT), sorry for saying this but the quality of the camera is just SUCK! big time! worse than any camera on a phone i can remember! plus its no flash! I once twitted its result.. wonder where they are now.

iPad 2 is being sold the same retail price when the first iPad was launched. Since iPad 2 was launched, the iPad 1 was reduced for $100. Remember, this is retail price on the web. Sure is different when it reaches your local apple store. As I write the blog, the iPad 2 is being sold from 6 - 10 million Rupiah depends on models & storage size. sure it does looks more expensive than iPad 1. but is it worth the gap?

Now, what about comparing iPad 2 with the other tablets?

Lets see.. what else coming?

the better-version-from-previous-tab Galaxy Tab 10.1?

the pen-based HTC Flyer?

the what-the Motorola xoom?

the never-gonna-come Blackberry Playbook?

I'll discuss bout them later on a different time! uda ngos-ngosan nih nulis blog segini doang! hahaha..

1 additional but controversial opinion from me is that, up till now, the iPad 2 is NOT jailbreakable.... YET! I know soon it'll come. but to me its a huge disadvantage that it only can run paid apps! I ain't dat rich! or just stingy and cheat! hahaha

So.. I'm postponing my decision on buying the iPad 2 based on 2 main reason: price & umm.. unjailbreakableyet! *notsureifitisaword* Some of you have got'em. Even my impatient brother got'em! good for me, I can try it but good for you bro?

You make your call. Buy for the beauty? buy for the style? buy for the excessive money? Buy just because its the talk of the town??

Sekian, selamat siang

How to Jailbreak Your Apple Devices.. like finally

2010-10-18T01:57:00.000-07:00

Geez, been ages since I last update my blog! April 12! that's how old it is!!

maaf yaaa #kedip2Manja

Thing is, you all know where to get your gadget news from and.. um.. i've been 'busy'? :)

Just a simple tutorial on how to jailbreak your apple devices.

Jailbreak is? well... let me try to describe this.. GA BAYAR APLIKASI LAAAH (biar ga kebaca bule, pake bahasa aja!) ;)

"apple devicenya di bebasin lah dari penjara, di lepas borgolnya.. jadi bisa diinstall applikasi bajakan" intinya, kita install cydia & appsync dulu, aplikasi yang bs buka borgolnya, trus baru deh ke website tempat donlot aplikasi bajakan" kira2 gitu deh.. belibet nih.. #garuk2

Those apple devices I'm talking about are:

iPhone (all) up to firmware 4.1,

iTouch up to 4thG firmware 4.1.

iPad up to firmware 3.2.2.

AppleTV.. (not too sure bout this, haven't tried it yet)

First of all, you need to know your firmware. This jailbreak tutorial works up to the mentioned firmware. Anything newer from that, I can not guarantee laaaaaah

How to look at your firmware:

Go to Settings --> General --> about

Check out the firmware

You can update yours officially through iTunes if you haven't got to that firmware yet

II.

Download the jailbreaking application. There are some running around out there. In this case, I am using Limera1n. http://www.limera1n.com .. Download based on your operating system (mac or windows)

III.

here we go with the jailbreaking part: Run Limera1n as soon as you finished downloading it. follow the on screen instruction.

click:

home? same as the menu button, power? the top 1 to turn on or off your device:

release........

done? not yet

Then, you will see at your iPad a white icon with the word limera1n written on it! go there, and install cydia!

cydia? can?

done? not yet!!

go to cydia and go to sources manage --> sources and add the following sources by just entering the address:

http://cydia.xsellize.com

http://sinfuliphonerepo.com

done? not yeeeeetttt.. sabar cyin!

go to packages.. add an application APPSYNC based on your firmware.. appsync 3.1, 3.2, 4.0, 4.1, etc.

thats jailbreaking.. to install more applications, on your computer, go to http://apptrackr.org. Download and install it to itunes, then sync your device.. see what happens?

voila!

like this? cium dulu sini! zzzzzzzzzzz

2010-04-12T20:37:00.000-07:00

and bla bla bla bla... if u want that data, go to htc.com (yes google nexus one is made by htc).. but stick here if you want my view.

Size:

By the size of it, its almost the same as iPhone 3g/3gs.. i phone is slightly heavier, but more solid! dimension-wise is still pretty much the same.. iPhone came with power button, volume up & down, vibrate switch and menu button while N1 came with a power button, volume, 4 fix-on-screen buttons and a trackball! (what the?) YEa I know, for those of you who has onyx, gemini, or iphone.. maybe trackball is a step back, however.. I rarely use this trackball, Istill think its a waste, if only they can put in a paper-thin qwerty keyboard.. :D

iPhone is prettier.. but.... Nexus is?.. lanjut duluuuu...

Multimedia:

N1 uses an external memory (microSD). Mine came with a 4GB.. Memory is important when it comes to Multimedia.. (to me it is).. you can tell how many songs, pics, videos you can store. there's a plus minus in exchangeable/fix.. you know laaa
N1 has a 5mp camera.. but to tell you the truth, it doesn't take pics as good as G11! LOL (makanya, bacanya jgn serius2). Pics looks great lah (should be for a 5mp with FLASH)

I honestly haven't tried listening to music yet.. :| (no comment on that, i have my ipod video to please me on that department)

OS

Dis is it the main difference with most of the phones out there. I know that BB now is soooo HITS, or Symbian is soooo err... "widely used?" and iPhone yaaa.. iPhone laaah...
but Android (2.1) offers sumthin different. 1st of all, remember that N1 runs on a 1Ghz processor.. its DAMN FAST!!
What I like about android 1st of all is their home screen, it can contains shortcut, widgets, buttons.. changeable wallpapers across several pages of home screen (bingung ga lo?) very customizable.

it follows how windows mobile, symbian and iPhone "provides" cr*cked app (without jailbreaking)... this is where everyone wins against BB! :P apps are easy to get thru Andorid Market and Blapk Market

Android supports push notifications.. just like any other smartphones are now capable of..

it can be yet so simple and so complicated.... I still love using qwerty keyboard to type, and its shortcuts.. (secara gw orangnya ga sabaran) but this thing is easy to get used to sih... klo kang lucky gadtorade sempet masa transisi dari BB aja - BB + Andro ke Andro aja.. kejadian di gw ga ya? mmmmm...

Basically, 1 of the reason I bought N1 is insane-gadget-curiosity, slightly cheaper than 3Gs and mmm... disetanin! :| or.. BM? haha.. but i enjoyed it so far... what I miss are the games on iphone...... :( no smart phones beats iphone games!!

Now Andro?

2010-04-06T22:58:00.000-07:00

Geez, gadgets are really limitless after I took a "leave" from that world for a while. Now read this, the following article is written by Lucky of Gadtorade on how he is "in love" with Android and left his ex, BB! Hope I have your permission to copy and paste! :)

Kenapa Android?

Oleh Lucky Sebastian

Ini ngga ngeracun, ngga ngajak move on, just simply cerita kenapa saya
ninggalin BB.

Apakah BB ngga bagus?
Tidak, BB sangat bagus...

Apakah BB tidak keren?
BB sangat keren, makanya semua orang mau memilikinya, bahkan yang tidak
mampu beli yg asli beli replikanya

Apakah BB tidak canggih?
BB sangat canggih, servernya hebat... berkembangnya pesat

Apakah BB tidak bermanfaat?
Sangat bermanfaat, dipakai kerja sangat membantu..
Lebih dari itu BB memperkenalkan kepada masyarakat kita dunia lain, yaitu
email, internet , chatting dan social networking. Better than iklan internet
masuk desa.
Kalau ada penghargaan dari negara untuk orang2 yang membuat kemajuan bagi
negara, saya mengusulkan BB dimasukkan di dalamnya, BB memberikan bukti
nyata kepada masyarakat ada teknologi maju yang harus kita ikuti dan kuasai
dan kejar.

Apakah saya a BB lover?
Yup, sebelum mata terpejam, BB adalah benda terakhir yang saya pegang, waktu
mata terbuka di pagi hari, bb benda yang saya pegang pertama kali untuk
lihat ada berita atau kabar apa dari teman2.

Nah loo... so kenapa move on?

Percayakah anda pada cinta pada pandangan pertama?
Ketika pertama saya memegang Magic (android dari HTC, HTC Magic), saya
merasa ada sebuah "klik"
Masih ingat Micah Sanders? karakter di film seri Heroes yang bisa bicara
dengan mesin dan komputer?
Itu yang saya inginkan ketika memegang android pertama kali, ingin berbicara
dengan "mitos masa depan" ini.

Masih butuh beberapa lama sampai saya bisa memiliki sebuah android dan mulai
mendalaminya.
Akhirnya saya bawa 2 device, 1 BB dan 1 Android.

Akhirnya mulai, setiap malam sebelum tidur, android adalah benda terakhir
yang saya pegang dan benda pertama kali yang saya ambil ketika bangun.

Kalau dulu email teman2 dan bbm yang berlangsung hingga malam yang membuat
saya masih memegang bb sampai akhir tidur, kali ini karena saya ingin
berbicara dengan android , mengenal karakternya, kemampuannya.

Saya merasa BlackBerry kalau analogi kendaraan adalah sebuah mobil Kijang.
Bisa mengangkut banyak anggota keluarga, the more the merrier, aa, teteh,
paman, bibi, tante, oom, kakek , nenek semua bisa kita bawa dalam bbm nya
Bisa dipakai mampir ke undangan, bisa dipakai ngantor, nganter anak sekolah,
bisa dibawa liburan, bahkan ke pasar (makanya dari keluarga paling kaya yang
punya bentley atau RR, sampe keluarga biasa , biasanya punya Kijang,
setidaknya kata yang kaya, untuk ke pasar..)

Android seperti sebuah Hummer, Humvee, kendaraan 4x4 offroad atau sebuah
Land Rover.
Yang dia tidak mampu adalah membawa semua aa , teteh, paman, bibi dll
tumplek blek dalam bbm :-)
Tapi kalau anda ajak berlibur, dia bisa sampai ke ujung pantai, kalau anda
bawa ke gunung , dia bisa diajak masuk ke dalamnya, kalau dia diajak ke
pasar, bisa diajak ke tempat paling becek. Kalau anda ajak ngantor, dia bisa
parkir di atas trotoar walau parkiran penuh.

BlackBerry sudah penuh sesak, ketika rekan2 kirim attachment gambar,
tertatih tatih saya mendownload, ketika rekan memberi link url , tertatih
tatih saya membuka.
Ketika ada yang harus di download, berbagai macam trik harus dikerahkan
supaya bisa mengatasi hambatan batasan download. Ketika ada link youtube,
saya ter[aksa tutup pesannya.

BlackBerry sudah mengubah banyak kebiasaan orang, dulu saya kalau pulang
kerja, buka komputer download email dan balas via outlook, setelah ada BB,
outlook tidak pernah disentuh lagi. Semua saya depend di BB.
Sampai akhirnya saya mengikuti keingainan BB, limitasi.

Android tidak semudah BB, mengetik di android melatih kesabaran lebih
daripada belajar mengetik di BB storm. Padahal kita sudah biasa ngetik di
BB. Saya juga tau ini jawaban ketika banyak orang bertanya, kenapa banyak
pemilik android belum lama pakai sudah jual? Pertama they miss BBM, ke dua
mereka ngga tahan ngetik nya :-D

Jawaban ketiga adalah mereka belum tahu android bisa di push kemana, macet
ngantri di dalem Kijang sambil BBM dengan rekan2 dianggap lebih nyaman
daripada , naik Humvee yang bisa lewatin kemacetan karena bisa dipakai naik
ke trotoar , lewatin banjir dan shortcut via semak belukar.

*Jadi maksud anda BBM ngga bagus? Tidak, BBM sangat bagus, termasuk salah
satu arena chit chat paling hebat.*
Trus Android punya yang lebih hebat dari BBM? Tidak, android tidak punya....

Jadi kenapa tinggalkan BBM , padahal orang2 rasanya dunia runtuh ketika
kontak BBM nya hilang karena gagal upgrade?

Begini jawaban menurut saya:
Dulu ketika saya kecil, waktu terasa lama, hari demi hari berlangsung
lambat, libur sekolah 1 bulan, wuih...rasanya tidak habis2.

Pulang sekolah masih sempat puas main. Suah mandi sore masih sempat main
lagi.
Tetapi sekarang tidak, hari2 berlalu sangat cepat.
BBM pertama kali sangat menyenangkan, tapi lama2 diperhatikan obrolannya
mulai tidak terlalu penting.
Kalau berteman dengan tukang jualan, tiap hari di bombardir jualannya:
Barang baru masuk, x, y z bla bla bla
Kalau ketemu customer: pak minta pin BBM nya, nanti sudah dikasih, ngga
kenal waktu tanya ini tanya itu, kalau sedang sibuk tidak dijawab, BUZZ
berkali kali.

Belum mereka yang begitu sosialita dan penyebar segala berita, dari si A
saya dapet broadcast message: hati-hati kalau terima ym dari si X, bisa
bikin BB hang bla bla bal.
Ngga lama isi yang sama saya dapet dari si B trus si C, trus si D.
Belum ada pesan yang dengan akhiran: sebarkan pesan ini ke 10 teman lagi
atau lebih supaya kamu tidak kena bencana. Bla bla bla...
TIba 2 saya dapet pesan dari miss X, yang saya tidak kenal, ternyata dia
sebenarnya miss S yang baru saja mengganti namanya dengan sederet icon hati,
smiley dll.

Then I feel it's not for me anymore.

Di android tidak ada yang bisa buzz saya di google talk :-)
Tidak ada yang bisa lihat saya sudah baca pesannya atau belum, kalau
dimarahin kenapa belum di balas? saya tinggal berkelit belum baca...
Ketika waktu senggang, saya lebih suka google talk secukupnya, tulis email
dan baca rss.
Android punya widget rss, yang tidak sepotong sepotong
Saya cape kalau harus baca rss di bb, sudah sepotong baca full story harus
masuk web nya dan laaaammmmmbatttt... sampe waktu menunggu lebih lama dari
bacanya.
Setiap hari saya bisa baca informasi teknologi terbaru cukup dari rss yang
sudah ada potongan gambarnya.

Kalau dapet link youtube saya langsung bisa menikmati tanpa jeda, bahkan
bisa lihat youtube related nya. Rasanya senang nonton youtube, karena di pc
Juga pakai speedy youtube terengah engah. Dan semenjak paki BB youtube
menjadi barang asing untuk saya.
Kalau dapet link url, saya tidak ragu2 membukanya, karena dalam sekejap
nongol di depan, full site, tanpa dikurang2i.
Kalau di BB bisa full site, misal pakai opera, bolt, tapi ketika di baca,
geser kiri geser kanannya PITA (pain in the ass...upss sorry) belum lag
nunggu fullsitenya muncul.
Di android ketika saya besarkan dengan geser jari, huruf2 langsung menyusun
rapi ke bawah, dan tinggal geser pakai jari ke bawah.
Belum kalau sitenya mengandung Flash...

Buka website sekarang menjadi kesenangan saya, bahkan kalau harus download
saya download dengan gembira, tinggal klik kaya di pc.
Karena android dibuat oleh Google, saya mulai lihat visinya ke depan sebagai
gadget segala informasi. Sedikit sedikit ada icon share, kalau web bagus
atau isi rss menarik, saya tinggal klik share, mau di share kemana? gmail,
email lainnya, FB, twitter, delicious? dll
Dan upload foto 3 mega ke FB is a snap, sebentar beres, kalau di BB hmmmm...
bbm aja sekarang kirim gambar musti accept, udah accept masih expired pula.

I love market. Android market berjibun dan bertambah terus apps tiap hari,
dari yang simpel sampai aneh. ngga ada keraguan untuk mencoba, karena
downloadnya sudah free , cepat pula, dan kalau ngga suka buangnya juga
gampang.
Bejibun softaware dari yang amazing sampe yang ngga guna ada disana.

Saya ngga pusing soal theme, soal background.
Semuanya ada di luar sana.
Sekarang sedang musim hujan, kalau saya membayangkan di negeri 4 musim
sedang salju. Ah iseng saya mau background saya hamparan salju dengan pohon2
cemara.
Maka saya hanya buka software background dan dia menyajikan bermacam macam
foto bagus online sudah dipilih dan sudah sesuai format ukurannya, tinggal
di pilih dan use it as background. Nanti malem mau ganti lagi, silahkan,
tidak perlu bawa gambar2 dalam memory mu.

Sesudah pilih tema yang cocok, background yang cocok, ya tinggal susun icon2
dan widget2 yang sesuai, semuanya personal dan tidak membosankan.
Kalau ganti theme di BB, seringkali jadi lost mana software yang kita mau
pakai, karena iconnya sudah berubah, susunannya harus sesuai kemauan pembuat
tema. di android youre the boss, youre the architect.

Pekerjaan saya mengharuskan saya kerja sampai malam, ketika pulang saya
kadang ingin melepas penat , nongkrong ngopi di warung, dan lihat mood, ah
saya pengen denger lagu2 dulu, maka saya stel saja radio 24 jam online
seluruh dunia yang menyajikan lagu yang cocok, sambil saya baca komik di
android.

Dulu saya pernah pakai iPhone karena saya pikir wah baca komik asik di
iphone tinggal besarin gambarnya snappy. Tapi ternyata hanya pembesaran dan
tidak merapikan resolusi, jadi percuma gambar komik jadi buram. Dan masukin
ke dalam iPhone nya juga PITA, dikit2 sync itunes.
Di Android gambar dibesarkan kemudian resolusi ditampilkan sesuai ukuran
gambar, jadi enak bisa dibaca dan jelas, tinggal geser kiri geser kanan baca
frame per frame komik.

Saya teringat, jika anda2 adalah makhluk malam, yang tidur sangat larut, apa
yang harus dilakukan ketika teman2 chat sudah tertidur?
Dengan android saya masih asik download lagu, baca informasi terbaru, nonton
youtube, nyoba2 software, sampai mata tak kuat lagi.

Dan saya tidak pusing sekarang dengan backup kontak saya, semua ada di
google. Sekarang saya mau coba android baru atau mau ganti rom, saya
langsung kerjakan, karena sekejap kemudian data saya balik lagi.
Tapi 3000 kontak di jave saya tidak berhasil di upload ke google walau sudah
pake google sync dan menggunakan 3 provider ditinggal semalaman, entah
jalurnya muter2 atau memang jave saya sudah uzur :-)

Kemudian ketika saya bilang, this is the last day saya pakai layanan BB,
karena bis saya sudah jatuh tempo.
Saya cinta BB, tapi seperti pepatah tidak ada hamba yang bisa mengabdi
kepada 2 tuan :-)
Saya bukan orang yang sanggup bawa 7 hape seperti mr B:-) atau bawa 3 BB
yang aktif semua seperti Mr Joh :-p , cdma esia yang kecil saja saya berikan
ke pegawai.

Saya hanya ingin bawa 1 device, yang bisa memenuhi mostly kebutuhan saya,
jiwa saya. Akhirnya saya memilih melengserkan BB yang sudah dari jaman
bayarnya 700rb dan scroll samping saya sudah miliki.Tunggu sampe BB evolusi
atau beli license WebOS...(ya kan oom wi :-)

Buat yang mau coba android, saya hanya bisa bilang, miliki dulu, coba
kenali, coba "bicara" seperti micah.
Pakai cara keras untuk menguasai ketikannya, tinggalkan seminggu BB di laci
:-) karena memang ngetik di BB itu mudah dan nyaman.

Jangan under estimate dengan diri anda bahwa anda ngga akan bisa ngetik
cepat di touchscreen, your mind is your weakness.
Ingat dulu jaman nokia seri 3 yang tombolnya kaya pencetan telepon jadul,
melingkar? Dulu saya bisa menguasainya, berarti sekarang lebih mudah :-)

Ingat saja, mendaki ke puncak gunung butuh usaha, tapi ketika anda sampai di
puncak dan lihat matahari terbit, semua lelah terbayar, matahari terbit di
puncak gunung jauh lebih indah daripada dibalik monas :-) have fun.

Masih banyak yang bisa saya ceritakan, tapi saya mau ngetik yang lain ah,
sudah lama, cerita weekend:-p

Salam,
Lucky Sebastian
@google android

Confused now? which to use? BB, iPhone, Andro? I know I am!! hahaha or all?? :P

have fun dilemma-ing (is that a word?)

HELLOUUWWW!!! IPAD!!!

2010-04-04T21:57:00.000-07:00

Geez, has been ages since my last post! can't believe its been THAT long!
So, I'll start with "apologizing" that sheggario.blogspot.com has been idle, M.I.A, or whatever you wanna call it!
This is due to me now being dumb on gadget, not into gadget anymore....... YEAH, RIGHT!!

:D

Well, you all start getting smart bout BB hey? I think y'all knows pretty much all you need to know. All crucial updates on BB, please follow me on twitter @sheggario .. there's firmware updates, updates to apps I'm using, etc. but be careful I do give lots of trash on twitter! :D

Here we go,

My crush on iPad has been growing!.. I know I know ... "no usb", "no card slot", "its just an enlarged iPod Touch", bla this, bla that, bla bla bla.. SHUT UP! I like MAC! hahaha. (kok jadi galak giniiii?)
iPad is suitable for meetings, travelling (on a plane), good for games, watching movies, etc2.. haven't tried it, but it looks good doing all that! (PEREUZ)

so, I'm gonna start with the hard question: HOW FAST IS IT?
Furbo.org has been comparing it with Iphone 2g, 3gs... and this is the result!

here's how it is A LOT FASTER compared to iPhone 2G

on its JavaScript Performance

This is how its "so-so" faster compared to iPhone 3GS

HOWEVER, after all that, remember that performance requires power! & memory! I don't know how is the battery consumption (I do hope its not worse than 3GS), but we can see here the memory performance:

Darn it, (sambil mo bikin icon tutup mata kaya di bbm)
This is embarrassing.. some cynical people says that... "1st launch of any apple product will be far from perfect, or they won't have a reason to release update!"... *sigh

Blackberry ODIN or STORM 2 or 9550!

2009-10-12T20:27:00.001-07:00

So, who's out first?? Odin/storm2/9550 or Onyx/Bold2/9700??

these 2 wicked gadgets are just awesome! Someone at id-bb mailing list has been using the EU Onyx which rumored to cost him $2200! and this morning I just found out that somebody has 2 stocks of Odin, suspected to be EU as well.. which rumored to be priced around the same cost as buying 2 16gb iphone 3gs! U think its MAHAL? i still think sum1 will buy it!

EU means experimental units and not for sale

I'll give you a hint what Odin MIGHT feel/looks like.. (gw blm pake, jadi ini pendapat orang yg blm pake!) Note that there will be 2 storms coming! (uda kaya prakiraan cuaca).. the 9520 and 9550. The difference is on the OS and the network. Odin will feature 3G, WIFI and also works on the CDMA network and runs on OS5 (5.0.0.287) by default while 9520 will basically storm 9500 with WIFI and with storm2 form factor

It looks faster, runs smoother and basically can provide you touch-screen-maniac another options besides the iPhone and the mostly anticipated n900! They say Odin will run faster, and with better touch screen (well.. sure-touch screen) functionality

here's a glimpse of what they both look like:

I highly recommend this for current storm user. tapi tunggu harga turun kali ya? :D

Onyx? this one I say is pretty amazin'. Got all the features that you want (except for touch n rotating screen :P). 3G, GPS, wifi, 3.2mp cam, fast processor (they say faster than bold), perfect form factor ..

I personally prefer to wait for this one considering I'm going for iPhone 3gs or n900 for the touch screen one!.. See its being compared with Bold & Javelin. Here's a glimpse:

Remember there's camera-less Tour is on the way, and also Essex? (don't mention magnum or pluto, still a total BS)

oh yea.. so you know about n900:

gonna be an exciting end of the year for bb users! hip hip horay!

Sports with GADGETS

2009-09-29T22:46:00.000-07:00

Whatever I do, it MUST involves gadget!

After finishing the fasting month, I think I really really need to get back in shape. What we called fasting month, has made me (ironically) EAT MORE! dont even let me start what I eaten during lebaran! dang!

then, what should I do? should I just regularly go to the gym at my apartment lobby? (which is free but the equipments are very limited) or should I join like a paid gym? (FF? Celfit? Gold's? fitbybeat?)

Hey, how bout running?!? mmm.. lets have a look at the gear! hihi.. I went straight to Nike and had a look at the latest running shoes.. I always wonder on how Nike+ (read: nike plus) works!! Now, let me "brief" you about Nike+:

- first of all, you need to buy a nike shoes that has a Nike+ logo on it. This shoes will be able to accept the nike+ chip inside the shoes, just where your foot steps.

- Then you will need a receiver. This receiver is now divided into two options: 1st is to connect it with a receiver that will connect to an apple device. In this case, it will work ONLY on Ipod Nano, Ipod Touch 2G and Iphone 3GS!! it kills me to know that it ONLY works on Iphone 3GS and NOT 3G!! darn it! what to do? buy a Iphone 3GS?? for more than 8million? pheww.... (this is when I tweeted that I found a "reason" to buy iPhone 3GS).
2nd option is to buy a nike bracelet or what they like to call sportband! this package will provide a nike+ chip with a bracelet that collects your running data, and as a usb, can be uploaded to your nike+ account! this cost about 600k! a lot better than 8mil? :D

- Then you can create a nike+ account at http://www.nikerunning.com or http://www.nikerunning.co.id where here, you can do all sorts of thing with your running activity starting from logging your run, challenge your friend, create a group, have a virtual coach, set a personal goal... etc! lots and lots!!

Still I hesitated to buy and looked around for a even cheaper solution, since I already own an Iphone 3G. (I still bought the shoes tho)

I found this cool app made for iPhone called RunKeeper. It comes out 2 version, 1 is free, 1 is pro. Differences are in things like musicality, and tagging photos...

The way it works it logs your OUTDOOR running activities thru Iphone 3G's GPS! its so cool. Have a look at my first 2 results: #1, #2. Those 2 days I happen to be in Bali for work and having a spare time to run in the morning (and a reason to test out this new app I have)

The result is not bad at all as long as u make sure you positioned yourself for the satellite is good to capture where you are and you know how to use it! If all fails, you can always edit it in your account at runkeeper.com :)

However, due to my sick curiosity,... ;) I ended up buying the sportband also!! then on the 2nd day I compared it using both device and here's the result from Nike+.
There's actually a less-than-5% difference but don't really care lah.. I very PUAS lah can compare (accent changed? the result of running with a Singaporean? :P)

oh yeah, I shared my running activity on this blog.. I get very excited just because.. IT INVOLVES GADGETS!! :D

I don't believe in magnum and pluto nor.. @JokoAnwar?

2009-09-22T10:13:00.000-07:00

while following the progress of @JokoAnwar on Twitter getting naked at Circle K, I was reminded by a friend to update this blog! this useless-narcist-outdated-oldfashioned blog! well anyway..

Just a background story... Joko Anwar is a famous Indonesian Movie Director who directed Janji Joni, Pintu Terlarang, Kala and many more. Today, he tweeted that if his follower reaches 3000 by the end of the day, he will be naked at a certain circle K! my lord, what wouldn't celebs do for publicity now....... now, who should I kill for more followers of my blog? :D

eniweiiiiii...

What I'm about to discuss here is about upcoming BB's... we all new that Jav, Bold and Storm are old!! (snob) here comes the era for Gemini and Tour. Gemini is where you can find a middle class BB, which cost around 3-4jt, looks like curve.. Big difference is in its input device. Gemini uses trackpad instead of trackball. What makes trackpad better is trackpad is sensor based input device. It works electronically while trackball is mechanically. There are physical elements of trackball that are easier to break than trackpad. (intinya trackpad lebih longlasting drpd trackball). Plus, trackball siapa disini yang masih putih mengkilat kaya waktu beli? siapa disini yang uda punya bb 6 bln blm pernah ganti trackball? :) Those are lacking from Gemini is Flash! gemini DOESN"T have FLASH! (pelan2 yang narcis ninggalin gemini.. tukutukutukutuk...)

While tour? another xx30 device! meaning its more cdma than its GSM .. result is? signal is not as good as GSM devices... I'm bit disappointed with it actually.. apalagi trackball and left convenience keynya bermasalah. so.. if only bold is not so PASARAN! :')

what other bb after this?

Again.. I don't believe in MAGNUM or PLUTO.. yang lo liat foto2 hasil photoshop..

Magnum

Pluto

I can tell you those who are coming:

Essex, (a camera-less tour)
Odin/Storm2/9550 (sequel of tour,...with wifi)
Onyx/Bold2/Bold 9700 (a super complete bb)

Onyx

Essex

Odin/Storm 2

... Still believe in magnum, pluto... nor JokoAnwar? :D

Sync with MAC + 2 devices = HELL

2009-09-06T09:38:00.000-07:00

Readers,

Geez, I have been working my way on syncing since this new leaked version of DM came out! What do I sync? my MacBook with Tour and Iphone 3G.. It really is a hassle!

Lets look at the basic of syncing.. You see, syncing (synchronize) is basically a way to match data between 2 or more devices. Should there are 1 data with 2 different details, the newer 1 should be chosen to resolve the conflict. So whatever u changed in your computer, will be updated to mobile after syncing.. and vice versa.

Now.. Windows is easier and more precise on this I'm afraid. Previously, there are actually many ways to syncrhonize with Mac. You got Missing Sync (paid apps from Mark&Space), Pocket Mac (free app from Blackberry.com), and Google Sync (an online based syncing).. The latest is we have is the Desktop Manager, although its not beta, some say its already working fine. Now.. there are + and - for these apps:

1. Missing Sync its a paid app, and quite expensive I must say... well, you can cr*ck it, but I'm not recommending to do so. It only syncs.. no backup/restore and upgrade. The sync is not that perfect when it comes to multiple devices like me.. with iPhone as well..

2. PocketMac for Blackberry. It does not backup/restore and upgrade as well.. really simple! good thing is, its free!

3. Google sync: now for this one, you need to set your addressbook and iCal on mac to make it able to sync with GSync. How? got to the app's preference and thick the google sync feature. Then you need to download the apps on your BB (here).. This is the closest to perfect I think in syncing.. Both devices are working quite well. No duplicates, etc. Its free! however, just imagine your data is being stored online in someone else's server? :)

4. Here comes the most awaited software for BB and Mac Users, Blackberry Desktop Manager for MAC. This one does all! sync, backup/restore, upgrade, install app, etc.
But again, this is still beta, and it does not sync well with multiple device and multiple firmware. Download where? (megaupload, rapidshare) And 1 more, upgrading is a bit different with Windows. It only upgrades with official firmware and the process is online (downloading while upgrade) means upgrade file is not stored in your device! wakwaowww...

So, prefer to use windows? err.. don't know bout that.. lets wait for the official release! :)

Leaked OS.. OS5!!

2009-08-28T20:52:00.000-07:00

Has been a while since I gave you links on upgrades.. Now I give you some risky challenges! upgrade to OS5 with lots of added links to work with!

Tour OS 5.0.0.191 Megaupload Rapidshare without RIM internal apps
Bold OS 5.0.140 here
Storm OS 5.0.154 here
Jav OS 5.0.190 here

also the latest OFFICIAL bold 4.6.0.297 can be picked up at official site www.blackberry.com

Remember, kalo kata anak milis bilang DIWYOR (Do It With Your Own Risk) AFAIK (As Far As I Know) its risky :D TY (Thank You)

selamat menik... mati....

Apple & Blackberry Join Forces!!

2009-08-27T21:13:00.000-07:00

apa jadinya?

here we go:

:)

TwiXtreme... an alternative of your ubertwitter

2009-08-26T20:21:00.000-07:00

this twitter app I think has a better graphical layout. The cool blue surely represents twitter!.. I really dig the look

However, it doesn't have the complete package. I noticed it doesn't do multiple accounts, doesn't shorten URL, doesn't shorten tweets.

You decide which one to use..

download it on your bb by visiting here

PS: oyeah.. 1 more thing I like from Twixtreme its that it has a notification icon in home screen just like emails, bbm, and other IM :)

Jiaaah.. iPhone dicela! haha

2009-08-26T20:10:00.000-07:00

An ad on iphone you have never seen before.. I just gotta share this which I got from Crackberry.

I use both Iphone and Blackberry and the joke made on iPhone on that video really hits me! difficulty in finding apps and less quality on the signal! hehehe... any of you iPhone users feels the same? cool ad!

Domikado... mikado eska, eskado bea beo

2009-08-25T22:05:00.000-07:00

Weits... this is an app to be proud of! Made by Indonesian (not my neighboring country who claims everything theirs :P).. An app for BB called Domikado!

Here's the maker's explanation about the app!

------------------------------------------------

Hey Friends,
It's the big day today! We're releasing the public beta of Domikado for BlackBerry! Domikado is one of the BlackBerry Alliance Members in Indonesia. We specialize in financial applications, but we realize that people have a life outside of the 9 to 4 trading hours! So we added everything else people would do. Watch movies, go to the gym, go clubbing, watch the English Premiere League, eat at over 2500 restaurants in Jakarta (we made our interns call 2500 restaurants over the summer!) You can do all those cool things on Domikado!

Remember this is a BETA application, were not done implementing cool things! Feel free to pass this on to your friends! If you find problems, tell us by using the "email developer" feature. I read every email.

Download Domikado for BlackBerry Version 1.4.7:
http://www.domikado.com/bb/domikado.jad

The Domikado developers would like to specially thank:
- PT Ciptadana Securities
- Andy Chan @ RIM
- Donny Berry Sutadi @ Ciptadana
- Ari @ ID-BlackBerry
- Faizal Adiputra @ Axis
- Dani @ XL
- Our Indonesian BlackBerry Alliance Friends @ Better-B
- Hoesin @ Pisang

------------------------------------------------

cool hey? here's a screenshot!

what it does is pretty much like Viigo when it gives lots and lots of info. As Roni said, from football, to restaurants, to Index, to News, to Twitter trending topics.. I mean like a LOT!!

Database is huge.. I use it if I wanna go out, dining, then search at Domikado on how to call them (their number I mean)..

I really do think we should support Domikado, support our own :)

fitur2nya seperti ini juragan: (gw copas aje yeee dari Ubertwitter.com)

This release deepens support for Twitter features and takes further advantage of the capablities available in your BlackBerry device.

Below is the list of features and bug fixes that made it into this release. We didn't get ALL of the capabilities we wanted into this release, see the bottom of the page for items we are still working on.

* Multiple Accounts - You can now configure multiple accounts, each with their own set of on-device preferences.
* You can now BLOCK people!
* Video Integration - We have partnered with TwitVid.com to offer you an outstanding video integration.
* Goto user - You can now enter twitter users name and go directly to their timeline
* URL Shortening - we've integrated with bit.ly so you can easily send those long URLs now and not bump up against the 140 limit
* MUCH faster photo uploads, significantly improving the user experience.
* Use of the internal GPS is now solidly supported with proper fallback to cell tower based location when GPS isn't available.
* Icon Caching If you have and SD card, we will cache avatar icons on the card, increasing the speed of timeline displays and reducing network traffic.
* You can now select pictures and videos that have already been take and are on your device. The interface shows the most recent at the top and offers a preview so you can verify it is the picture/video you expected!
* When composing a tweet you can now insert symbols from a large selection of commonly available characters such as smiley's, hearts, etc.
* Integrated advertisements - Please note, the ads are there to support the freely distributable version of ÜberTwitter. Users that purchase ÜberTwitter will not have advertisement in their version.
* We've streamlined the friends and followers lists
* You can now see both the number of friends, followers, and tweets sent when viewing the details of a tweet.
* Replying to a DM from the timeline will now correctly send a DM and not a regular tweet
* Fixed the bug in reply all where it would truncate some twitter user names
* Added reply all to the menu when viewing a tweet

The list below includes features and capabilities which just didn't make it into this release (not enough time in the day!). We will be working on these for the next release though.

* Integration into the BlackBerry browser such that URLs can be included directly in a tweet from the browser menu.
* Saved searches - integrate the new Twitter saved search API. Searches saved via the Twitter web site will be useable on ÜberTwitter and vice versa
* Twitter name menu - Type '@' and a list of your friends automatically pops up allowing selection

Perhatiin doi beriklan sekarang!!! yg ad-free harus bayar.. hiyah lhoooo.. :P

Twitter ediyan!

2009-08-06T23:29:00.000-07:00

gileee.. twitter bisa ke hack! since yesterday twitter had problems. There are times that it was unavailable at all. As we speak, it's still unavailable through BIS. aargghh... beberapa uda bisa update langsung dari webnya, atau kalo gw lewat Seesmic Desktop.

Kira2? berikutnya FB? atau FB yang ngelakuin? hahaha.. komporrrrr

tapi ternyata gak, ..Facebook, LiveJournal, dan Twitter disabotase melalui serangan DOS! Motifnya kenapa ga tau deh. ADa yg bilang ini Koobface worm (coba dibolak-balik bacanya apa). atau mungkin dia bermutasi? uda kaya influenza ajaaaaa....

pencegahan2 ke depan:

1. percaya insting.. (insting yg pinter yaaa)
maksudnya jangan main klik klo dikasih link dari orang lain... link liat video, liat gambar, etc etc... ini cara kerja koobface. waktu lo klik, dia minta install adobe yg terbaru.. nah.. disitulah wormnya. Banyak kan di twitter tiba2 orang follow lo tapi ngasih "look at my sexy pic?" hahahha...
yang sering juga sekarang hoax! baca petikan ini, anda akan beruntung? ada yg jatuh cinta dalam waktu 10 menit?? IN YOUR DREAMS!! sekalian temen2 gw yang suka ngirim hoax gini.. lupain deh.. baru gw baca depannya pasti uda gw apussss... walaupun ini ga ngasih link, tetep aja ini buang2 bandwidth klo smua orang ikut nyebarin! huh

2. Jangan instal aplikasi yang ga jelas asalnya... bisa aja juga itu worm, virus, etc..
kecuali orang itu (yg ngasih) mo tanggung jawab!! mo nyekolahin, beliin susu.... lho???

3. update system yang resmi.. klo pake windows, windows update, pake mac, software update, di BB pun, lo upgrade yang resmi2.. :)

4. Pake antivirus yang bener.. .klo bb ga usa la ya.. berlaku buat komputer nih.. uda pake antivirus, jangan lupa kadang2 nyecan juga!! sayang, kaya uda beli vakum kliner mahal2 ga pernah dipake (duuuh.. curcooolll...)

Twitter! Twit.. twit.. on Media Indonesia

2009-08-04T03:12:00.000-07:00

Readers, the following is my article that made it to Media Indonesia Weekend 25-26 July.. Thanks MI :)

--------------------------------------

Twitter! Twit.. twit..

Bukan Facebook lagi yang saya lihat pagi-pagi begitu baru bangun, tapi Twitter! Apakah Twitter? Beberapa orang mengeluh, “baru bisa main facebook, eh.. keluar Twitter, apa lagi nih?” Menurut kamus bahasa Inggris, Twitter adalah “a series of short, high-pitched calls or sounds”. Yang dimaksud Twitter disini berupa sebuah aplikasi web based (red: melalui internet browser seperti firefox, internet explorer atau safari), yang membantu pengguna menyuarakan, secara harafiah, “a series of short, high-pitched calls or sounds”. Lebih persisnya lagi adalah seruan-seruan pendek mengenai apapun! Boleh dibilang juga Twitter seperti “status update” dari facebook. Terdengar sederhana? Hanya status update? Hanya shout out? Baca sampai akhir hingga bisa tau “dasyatnya” Twitter!

Setelah terdaftar sebagai pengguna Twitter, pengguna akan dibawa ke halaman utama dimana yang terlihat hanya sebuah kotak kosong dimana kita bisa twit apapun. Untuk merasakan Twitter dengan benar, tentu anda harus follow (ikuti teman), yang membuat kita bisa melihat twit-twit orang yang kita follow. Semakin seru bila itu adalah teman yang kita suka? Atau bahkan benci? Kita bisa tahu apa yang dia lakukan, rasakan, apapun yang dia twit. Atau mungkin, selebritis? Perusahaan? Perkumpulan? Iya, Twitter sudah sangat populer sehingga dijadikan para selebritis, perusahaan, atau apapun sebagai salah satu media public relations gratis mereka. Selebritis dengan jumlah followers yang sudah cukup banyak adalah Oprah Winfrey, Aston Kutcher, Paris Hilton. Atau media seperti CNN, BBC, E, bahkan sampai beberapa perusahaan media di Indonesia sudah menggunakannya. Banyak dari mereka menaruh link di website mereka yang otomatis membuat pengujung follow mereka di Twitter.

Itu belum pemanasan. Twitter memberikan batas karakter dalam setiap twit. 140 karakter adalah jumlah yang dianjurkan untuk menulis Ya, betul, ini sehubungan dengan mempermudah bagi pengguna yang ingin twit lewat SMS. Tentu bisa lebih, tapi sisa dari twit kita akan di potong menjadi berupa link. Namun, mari kita lihat bagaimana kita bisa mengakses Twitter. Mulai dari Browser Internet, SMS, Aplikasi tambahan di smartphone! Saat ini lebih banyak aplikasi Twitter untuk Blackberry. Lebih dari 10 aplikasi Twitter di Blackberry sementara aplikasi Facebook? Hanya 1. Aplikasi-aplikasi ini juga hadir di iPhone, Windows Mobile, Nokia (Symbian), Palm, bahkan yang terbaru, Android. Betapa setiap pembuat aplikasi berlomba untuk kompatibel dengan Twitter!

Semakin banyak fenomena terjadi melalui Twitter, seperti bagaimana akhirnya kata Twitter ini mengalami perubahan di kamus, sampai perpindahan Shaquille O’Neal dari Phoenix Suns ke Cleveland Cavaliers yang Shaq sendiri lebih dulu tahu melalui Twitter yang harusnya dari agennya. Yang menarik juga adalah kejadian dimana Perez Hilton, bukan Paris, yang merupakan komentator selebritis Hollywood, mengadu Twit dengan Black Eyed Peas dan John Mayer! Perez Hilton memang terkenal dengan komentar pedasnya tentang selebritis Hollywood, suatu saat dia “diserang” oleh bodyguard dari Will.I.Am personel Black Eyed Peas. Perez minta pertolongan melalui Twitter, dan mulai lah perang Twit yang juga melibatkan John Mayer dari situ.

Bagaimana di Indonesia? Banyak juga selebritis Indonesia sudah main Twitter. Tika Panggabean, Dea Ananda, Ardina Rasti, Alyssa soebandono, Caroline zachrie, Tora Sudiro, Arie Dagienk, Desta Club 80s, dan masih banyak lagi.

Jadi, sebenarnya, apa fungsi Twitter? Pengguna Twitter bisa menggunakannya untuk mencari berita, “memantau” seseorang, memublikasikan diri, sampai berkomunikasi. Sebagai informasi tambahan, twit seseorang bisa dibalas dengan banyak cara: retweet, reply atau direct message. Bagian-bagian ini lebih baik diselami langsung dengan menjadi anggota Twitter! www.twitter.com

Namun, dari semua kehebatan Twitter, tentu kekurangannya sangat mudah dilihat. Twitter tidak bertanggung jawab atas apapun yang ditulis seseorang. Inilah yang bisa menjadi sumber masalah dimana kebanyakan dari kita tidak tahu bagaimana menulis untuk umum, bagaimana twit kita bisa menyinggung seseorang, atau bahkan sesuatu yang rahasia? Tetap berhati-hatilah menggunakan Twitter. Perhatikan baik-baik apa yang ada tulis, siapa yang Anda follow dan siapa yang follow Anda.

Kabar terakhir tentang Twitter baru saja terdengar adalah ada 310 dokumen korporat Twitter bocor. Salah satunya membicarakan tentang Twitter TV show??? Seperti kata Twitter “What are you doing?”

Twitter Journalism

17 Juli 09 bukan merupakan hari yang baik. Seperti semua menyesalkannya, hari itu meledak bom di 2 hotel ternama di bilangan Mega Kuningan. Media sangat siaga menanggapi kejadian tersebut seperti kita lihat 2 stasiun televisi bersaing mendapatkan berita yang lebih cepat, baru dan akurat. Kedua stasiun televisi tersebut memulai liputan sebelum ada tayangan langsung dari kejadian dengan menggunakan potongan gambar seperti dalam Google Earth zooming ke arah mega kuningan dengan memberi tanda dimana kedua hotel tersebut dalam peta.

Lalu, pada saat itu, apakah itu sudah berarti berita tercepat dan tepat? Mungkin tepat iya, tapi setelah kita menengok twitter, luar biasa apa yang bisa didapat dari situ. Di saat kedua stasiun televisi tersebut belum mendapatkan gambar, di twitter sudah terlihat 2 foto dari sudut berbeda foto kedua hotel tersebut! 30 menit berlalu, hadirlah foto Timothy Mackay, Direktur PT. Holcim yang menjadi korban, terduduk di rumput dengan sluruh tubuhnya bersimbah darah.

Ratusan twit (seruan) banjir dalam twitter dalam waktu yang sangat singkat. Semua bercerita, melaporkan, bertanya, sambil menunjukan simpati, amarah, dan bahkan mengutuk kejadian tersebut. Laporan juga hadir dengan foto, selain foto diatas, yang bahkan tidak akan disiarkan oleh stasiun televisi. Sampai lucunya, terlihat juga belum 2 jam kejadian, foto “guyon” hasil rekayasa iklan salah satu provider GSM dengan menampilkan pemain Manchester United yang terkena luka-luka. dengan latar belakang foto gedung yang meledak, atas sindiran batalnya kunjungan Manchester United ke Jakarta.

Begitu hebohnya diskusi tentang kejadian ini, para pengguna twitter sepakat untuk twit dengan menggunakan kata kunci “#indonesiaunite” yang bisa membuat kata tersebut sebagai kata terpopuler di dunia twitter selama 3 hari. Banyak juga pengguna twitter yang mengubah avatar (foto profil) mereka dengan merah putih, atau siluet merah putih, semua ini untuk menunjukan supportnya.
Inilah Twitter Journalism!

Ridiculously awesome work on my apartment! go check it out!

www.stormota.com

2009-07-24T22:03:00.000-07:00

stormers, storm users, stormista, or whatever you like to call yourselves..

I have been looking at a website called stormota!
started out when I was about to download bbm5 from that site! ota.. unfortunately.. got the following message:

"Update (7/23/09 12:37PM EDT): We have just been ordered by RIM's attorneys to remove BBM5 from our site. Sorry."

telatttt!! hhahahaha...

knp akhirnya gw mo upgrade? gw pikir gw ga bisa juga backup! remember that I've been having problem with my bbm contact list? that I can't seem to back it up? :(

anyway.. this www.storm.ota is cool! 1st of all, it lists lots of apps and some of the are FREE (weits.. kuping dingin nih denger yang gratis2... kuping dingin?? where did that come from??)

2nd of all, it downloads OTA (Over the air) meaning... brosing aja dari storm lo, and langsung download bgitu ada tulisan free!! ga free jg gpp sih di donlot.. :D

don't ask whether it would work with other bb, coz i haven't got a chance to try it!..
and those of you trying to upgrade ur storm with os 5.0,... DONT!!

first udpate .. done.. back to work.. then update again... pheww...

Storm 5.0.0.140!

2009-07-22T21:12:00.000-07:00

uhuy! OS 5 buat Storm!! lebih menantang dari pada BBM 5! ada yang brani?
mantab niiih... tapiii.. ngeri juga ya klo blm compatible?? hayoo?

Good Luck.. perlu dijelasin lagi klo ini beta? :)

BBM 5???

2009-07-19T09:23:00.000-07:00

Hey evenin all!!

most of u must've heard bout the ridiculously controversial BBM 5??
hehehehe..

whats the fuzz?
I can give you the link, but best be careful! hayoo..
what you gotta do first is.... BACKUP! those of you don't know how? read the manual!! hahaha.. ga deeeng... buka DM aja, ada pilihan backup! :)
then.. ambil nih disini:
OS 4.5
OS 4.6
OS 4.6.1
OS 4.7
OS 4.7.1
OS 5.0
OS 5.1

I must warn u as well that this is BETA!
you know what that means?? there are risk! :D

there are cases like:
- contacts bbm ilang smua
- bb jadi lemot
- bb sering hang?

trus? hebatnya apa?
- ada avatar (pictures kaya IM lainnya)
- bisa broadcast message per group
- beda tampilan (layout)

gw pernah make waktu upgrade 5.0 di bold gw, ada sedikit bedanya.. dulu blm ada avatar.. kalo ditanya sekarang gw uda donlot blm? uda mo coba cmn fail terus! trus denger crita smua orang! ahahha.. gladly i haven't upgrade it.. dont really need it anyway

bagi yang mo downgrade BBM? bisa dengan pake DM, ada applications? atau klo ga bs juga, downgrade/upgrade bb lagi.. atau jl_cmdr (wipe after backup) baru install firmware lagi.. ga bs jg? ke toko henpon gih! hehehehe

naah.. yang seru ada cerita (hoax) kalo BBM 5 tuh bisa ngetrack bb ga resmi trus bisa suspend pin lo?? oyeeeeeee??? no komen aaaah
trus ada yg bilang juga, RIM ga nyangka klo uda bocor bbm 5 nya, makanya servernya penuh (buat yg ga bs donlot) dan RIM bakal cepet ngeluarin resminya??

soo.. DM 5 uda resemi, OS 5 beta, BBM 5 beta... mmmmm.. meeeeaaaaniiinggg??

#Indonesiaunite

2009-07-17T09:39:00.000-07:00

#Indonesiaunite adalah cara twitters menunjukkan supportnya kepada Indonesia.
#Indonesiaunite menyerukan kita untuk mengganti avatar kita bertema merah putih.
#Indonesiaunite is THE keyword most mentioned at Twitter at the moment.
#Indonesiaunite tops #Michael Jackson, #iranelection and #Harry Potter.

I started my day hearing bombs blew off at mega kuningan. It was BOMBS, not BOMB! Couldn't believe what I'm hearing that, again, Mariott is one of the victim! 2 bom bali, kuningan, mariott,.. Kenapa? kenapa lagi? apa lagi nih?

Rentetan berita yang gw dapet makin lama bikin merinding.. dari bom pertama jam 7.40, bom kedua, death toll dari 2, sampe 9 terakhir gw denger.. belom lagi among the victims are CEO of Holcim, then... the 3rd one blew off!! mobil??

Done? not yet, another bomb found unexploded and defused. Done? not yet, rumors of 6, 8, 4040 more bombs to go!, Done? ANOTHER bomb was found in ritz, room 1808. Done? Jakarta Bali siaga 1!, Done? Flights are delayed karena crew, pilots and passengers ga bisa ke airport (macet paraahhh).. Done? Manchester United canceled!! Done? Sundaze rescheduled? nasib Phoenix? Mew? Cut Copy? Mr. BIG?

Wonder how I kept myself updated? a combination of Twitter, FB and BB!!

hey wait a minute, to finish off the day, SBY made a statement di TV and what a bold move it was.! Beliau nunjukin foto-foto hasil intel beberapa pasukan latihan menembak dengan menggunakan foto SBY sebagai sasaran tembak. Beliau juga menyebutkan sederetan ancaman2 yang masuk ke kuping beliau. I guess it all leads to 1 of the candidates??

Then, direspons deh sama yang "merasa". seperti diperkirakan, tangkis dan bales! pff.. I don't know what to comment, really... yang going thru my head ya serentetan kejadian ini BAKAL BERAKIBAT APA?
.....
..
.....
Travel Warning? pastinya! (sampe tulisan ini turun, so far baru AUS & SIN yg ada, US masih mnunggu)
Saham? IHSG brani tetep buka. Walaupun mengalami penurunan sedikit, tapi masih kuat bertahan..
Rupiah? belum mengalami perubahan berarti? but could it??

itu baru yang keliatan... yang gak?
mungkin ga kurangnya Investor asing? Makin repotnya security tempat2 umum? makin parnonya orang2? atau yang paling parah? CHAOS? PERANG? pff.. ngeri bayanginnya?

well, I leave it to you how to react to these incidents,..
sheggario.blogspot.com sends my deep condolences to OURSELVES, INDONESIA! we are the victims here! However, kita ga perlu nyumpahin lah ya? get on with ourlives, show that we are strong? tunjukin kita ga akan pecah? We Indonesian, we don't break easily!!

if you are on twitter, change your avatar to our flag, and twit #Indonesiaunite to show your support! :) and follow me @sheggario :)

Review OS: Bold 4.6.0.282

2009-07-16T01:06:00.000-07:00

Ini review dateng dari reader blog ini.. Pak Andrew CIHUY! hahaha... jadi klo ada yg lain mo ikut ngisi blog ini boleh juga.. :)

------------------------------------

Dear Mr. Ario,

Yo, neh gw coba review OS bb blod 900 app. version 4.6.0.282 :

Pertama" Download softwarenya disini

BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.6.0.477 (EastAsia)
Package Version: 4.6.0.477
Consisting of:
- Applications: 4.6.0.282
- Software Platform: 4.0.0.235
- File name: 9000jEastAsia_PBr4.6.0_rel477_PL4.0.0.235_A4.6.0.2 82_CSL_Limited_customers.exe File size: 97.68MB

Nanya" lu cara apgret nya.

Modal nekad apgret sendiri.

Apgret selesai langsung battery pull. Pas nyala langsung pencet alt+aA+H...memory freenya nambah biasanya 30an sekarang dapet 41
Applikasi jalan smua : YM, bbm, FB,jivetalk dll ga ada masalah

Hari pertama pake 282 agak terasa beda dr 266 (pemakaian dr jam 7 pagi ampe jam 10an) : memory leak nya kecil, pagi 41mb pas malem 38an.
Batteree nya jg lebih irit dr cabut charger jam 7 pagi ampe jam 9an baru minta dicharge lagi (indikator batere ude merah). Pemakaian harian: messenger, fb, browsing" ringan, denger lagu pk earphone (tape mobil rusak soalnya hehehe), ini gw pake networknya 3G, kl pake 2G baterenya bisa tahan ampe jam 10-11 mlm

Signal BIS nya mantep....dpt signal GPRS, ato pindah dr 3G ke 2G ga lama.(provider T-Sel)
Jam "tanda loading" suka kluar...tp menurut gw masi dalam batas kemanusiaan.
Loading awal sedikit lebih cepet dr 266...browsing jg lebih cepet
buat ngebuka media file (gambar) rada lemot

Overall : lebih baik sedikit dari yg 266 (tolong digaris bawahi kata sedikit). Karena mang ga jauh beda ama yg 266. yang paling terasa ya memory leak nya kecil and batere yg lebih irit. Tp di bold temen gw ga cocok neh OS...mereka malah lebih lelet pake OS ini dan akhirnya pada balik lagi pake yg 266.

For me OS 282 is highly recomended, pokok'e maknyus deh di bold gw.

Ya gitu deh yo repiu dari ane. Ntar kl yg 288 da official gw repiu lagi deh buat mr. shag maister...wkwwkwk

Regards,

Endru Sukmadi.

Blackberry AMAN.. sementara

2009-07-14T19:52:00.000-07:00

If you have been reading detik.. (and not my blog), you will have read stories about how the government is pushing RIM (Research In Motion: company who produce BB? doh!) to open a branch/store/support center in Indonesia. If you notice until now, GA ADA cabang RIM di Indonesia! ada yg bisa sebut toko resmi RIM dmn? all are distributors!

So, what happen so far even though you have got urself an official, with warranties, BB broken? lari ke operator? trus kemana larinya? oper lagi ke RIM Singapore! hadooooh.. piye iki? walaupun dikasih replacement sementara.. tapi TEUTEUP!

but Today, I just read another update about this, check it out here. The "permission" has been extended! RIM menunjukkan itikad baik katanya! apose tuh?

yang paling seru kutipan terakhir dari Pak Gatot, Kepala Pusat Informasi Depkominfo, "Ini karena mereka mulai menunjukkan itikad baik. Namun kalau sampai 21 Agustus belum juga rampung. Goodbye saja. Sertifikasi impor akan kami bekukan semua," pungkas Gatot.

hahahhaha.. hayoloooooooooooooo

2009-05-07T09:14:00.000-07:00

For those of you twitter + BB fans, u gonna luv thiz!!
(for those of you don't know what twitter is.. go to www.twitter.com) :P

2 things I would like to share with y'all:

1. you can actually update your twitter status and it automatically update your FB status!!

how? well.. do this settings first in ur PCs:
- open facebook
- search an app called twitter
- configure your twitter with facebook
- don't forget to "allow twitter to update your facebook status"
so everytime you update your status in twitter, it'll automatically update your FB status... gw jd banci update giniiii.....

2. Twitterberry is not the only 1!!

ternyata yaa, twitterberry is not the only twittering app in bb that is available (free or not), check out the following twittering apps:
- Yatca : download OTA
- SocialScope: this one you gotta signup to register for a trial.. don't know whether it still work.. go here. good thing is that you don't need facebook + twitterberry anymore.. only need 1 app ... SocialScope
- TinyTwitter : just a link to a twitter small size website
- Twibble : OTA
- TwitApps : product link
- BBTweet : OTA
- TweetGenius : kalo ini bayar & there's no trial.. check it out at http://thetweetgenius.com/

how's that for tweeting? get in to it yet? Do you know that Jimmy Kimmel has discussed Twitter in his show lots of time? Do you know that Aston Kutcher has 1 Million follower?? hahahhaa...

Follow me (so I can become like Aston??) at twitter.. the name is SHEGGARIO! awesome! :P

How to: start your blackberry in a safe mode

2009-05-05T03:53:00.000-07:00

Ever wonder how to start your blackberry in a safe mode? I bet not!
Even care what it is for? I bet not!

me neither! hehehehe....

safe mode itu adalah menjalankan bb tanpa adanya theme dan aplikasi2 dari awal. gunanya buat apa? yaaa.. biar bbnya ga berat dan biasanya klo ada masalah di aplikasi.. bisa tau ada di mana persisnya.. gitu deh.. agak advance! :P

caranya gmn?
- reset bb (terserah mo battery pull atau alt+shift kanan+del)
- begitu lampu LED merahnya mati, tahan back buttong (itu lho.. yang kaya huruf u miring, panah melingker sebelah trackball biasanya..)
- tahan terus
- tahaaan
- tahaannn...
- hehe.. pokoknya sampe nyala lagi, harusnya itu uda safe mode,
- klo mo balikin keadaan smula, reset lagi tp kali ini jangan ditahan!

ngertos?

mantaaaab.. tidur duluu.. nonton MU! harus MENANG!! yooo ayooo, ayo indonesiaaa... disini... kita harus menang.... ??? $@#%@%^

---------------------------------

Mampukah iPhone 3G Bersaing

Sudah satu bulan lebih iPhone 3G, yang telah ditunggu dua tahun lamanya, akhirnya hadir di Indonesia. Dengan berbekal koneksi 3G, GPS, dan perubahan minim di fi sik, apakah penantian para penggemar iPhone atau Apple itu sesuai dengan harapan? iPhone adalah suatu produk kelas atas dilihat dari harganya dan kualitasnya.

ADA beberapa hal yang membuat saya sempat ber- pikir ulang untuk menggunakan iPhone. Satu hal adalah built-in battery.

iPhone, di kedua generasinya, selalu hadir dengan baterai yang sudah tertanam di dalamnya, yang notabene kita tidak bisa memiliki baterai cadangan atau ada kemungkinan memerlukan usaha lebih bila akhirnya baterainya ‘bocor’.

Namun, tampaknya Apple sudah memiliki jawaban untuk masalah ini, persis seperti argumennya dalam peluncuran MacBookPro 17’ yang baru.

Konon, komponen-komponen mekanisme yang membuat baterai bisa dilepas pasang adalah pemborosan ruang dalam tubuh iPhone. Ruang yang terbuang itu dimanfaatkan untuk menambah kapasitas baterai. Selain itu, tampaknya Apple berusaha mengurangi kesempatan untuk produsen baterai nonorisinal untuk berkreasi.

Keunggulan jelas dari iPhone adalah accelerometer. Ini adalah alat pengukur akselerasi nongravitasi atau dalam kata lain teknologi sensor gerak yang dapat mengukur kecepatan, arah, pola dari suatu gerakan. iPhone adalah ponsel pertama yang menggunakan teknologi tersebut.

Kegunaan dari accelerometer ini sangat luas, mulai dari perubahan layar dari landscape ke portrait, pengaturan intensitas cahaya pada layar, bermain game, sampai bahkan hanya mengganti lagu yang sedang diputar. Accelerometer dipadu dengan ketajaman dan ukuran layar iPhone menjadi faktor penting dalam menjatuhkan pilihan ke iPhone.

Dukungan aplikasi Yang juga tidak kalah menarik dari iPhone kali ini adalah dukungan aplikasi pihak ketiganya yang dijual melalui Itunes Store. Lebih dari 25 ribu aplikasi tersedia dan lebih dari 1 juta yang telah diunduh.

Statistik ini menjadikan Itunes Store sebagai pasar aplikasi ponsel terbesar di dunia mengalahkan RIM dengan Blackberry App Worldnya dan Microsoft dengan pasar Windows Mobile-nya.

Aplikasi-aplikasi tersebut rata-rata adalah gratis atau sekitar US$0.99. Harga yang masih masuk akal untuk aplikasi ponsel.

Kali ini, Indonesia sudah mulai kreatif dengan berturut serta di Itunes Store. Telah terlihat aplikasi yang dibuat untuk orang Indonesia oleh orang Indonesia.

Aplikasi seperti angklung untuk bermain angklung secara virtual, BuUuk - untuk mengetahui review tentang restoran, Detik.com dan Jakarta Globe tentang berita terkini, dan Trans-Jakarta untuk mengetahui jadwal busway, dan kamus.

Bahkan, kali ini pembelian bisa dilakukan langsung dari iPhone dengan hanya membutuhkan sarana wi-fiatau koneksi GPRS/3G. iPhone 3G dengan firmware terbaru (2.2.1) hadir dengan kemampuan push e-mail yang lebih sempurna. Seperti halnya Blackberry, yang notabene pelopor teknologi ini, push e-mail dalam iPhone boleh dikatakan bekerja sempurna.

Untuk men-setting e-mail seperti Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, MobileMe, bahkan Microsoft Exchange menjadi lebih mudah. Ini semua dilakukan tanpa keperluan menggunakan Blackberry connect.

Memang, sempat ada perdebatan mengenai ‘kelemahan’ iPhone seperti tidak bisanya menjalankan aplikasi di latar (background) atau tidak bisanya menulis SMS dalam mode landscape sampai menghilangkan ‘gangguan’ dari fitur autotext.

Itu semua dengan usaha tambahan bisa dilakukan dengan menambah aplikasi yang Anda bisa lakukan sendiri dengan mudah tanpa harus pergi ke toko ponsel untuk menambah aplikasi di gerai yang sama dengan download ringtone, seperti yang kita temui di beberapa mal.

Namun, cocokkah teknologi layar sentuh dikawinkan dengan e-mail? Seperti yang kita ketahui, e-mail membutuhkan keyboard, entah itu virtual atau nyata, yang nyaman karena biasanya digunakan untuk menulis hal yang lebih panjang jika dibandingkan dengan SMS. Hal itu berlaku juga untuk chatting.

iPhone 3G tidak memiliki papan tulis nyata, hanya vir tual. Keyboard virtual hadir di posisi landscape dan portrait tergantung posisi iPhone.

Cocok tidak cocoknya merupakan hal yang subjektif.

Apple lover mati-matian memperjuangkan iPhone dan bagi mereka tentu metode ini lebih baik. Sebaliknya dengan Crackberry (pecinta Blackberry), salah satu alasan mereka memilih Blackberrry adalah kemudahan mengetiknya.

Untuk itu, saya kembalikan lagi kepada Anda, metode input seperti apa yang paling tepat untuk Anda. Jangan lupa fitur a-GPS (assisted global positioning system). Dengan teknologi a-GPS, bukan sekadar melihat peta yang bisa dilakukan di iPhone 3G, melainkan hingga memberi tanda di mana foto diambil, memberikan posisi Anda ke teman, hingga mencari tempat-tempat hiburan terdekat.

Semua bisa dilakukan tanpa biaya tambahan dari operator.

Beberapa fitur bisa dilakukan dengan adanya aplikasi tambahan yang bisa didapatkan di iTunes Store. Adalah satu perubahan penting dari generasi sebelumnya.

iphone terbaru Mulai minggu lalu, AT&T Amerika mulai menjual iPhone kondisi refurbished serendah US$99. Yang menarik adalah alasan dibalik promo-promo ini. Berdasarkan rumor, Apple akan meluncurkan iPhone generasi ketiga dengan firmware 3.0 tengah tahun ini. Apple berusaha menghabiskan semua sisa stok iPhone 3G yang ada. Jadi jangan kaget apabila Anda baru saja membeli iPhone 3G dari Telkomsel dan dalam waktu beberapa bulan sudah akan ada iPhone generasi ketiga. Apakah ini benar? Bila iya, apa kelebihan iPhone generasi terbaru itu? Dan, kapan diluncurkan? Hanya waktu yang akan menjawabnya.

Yang saya tahu adalah iPhone adalah suatu produk kelas atas dilihat dari harganya dan kualitasnya. Sisanya yang ada di benak saya adalah pertanyaan. Berapa lama fenomena ini akan bertahan? Bagaimana persaingan Apple dengan RIM dan Microsoft? Apa yang akan terjadi tengah tahun nanti dengan gosip peluncuran iPhone baru dan firmware baru? Akankah ada operator lain menggandeng iPhone 3G? Terlalu banyak pertanyaan, yang bisa diucapkan adalah, “Selamat datang iPhone 3G.” (OL-5) miweekend @mediaindonesia.com

STORM Firmwares Updates

2009-04-22T23:08:00.000-07:00

Horee... sedih dengan kualitas firmware terbaru storm (.122).. mari kita lanjut ke .131 untuk 9500 dan .132 untuk 9530!! horee.. mudah2an ini worth it! as we speak, gw lg donlot dan mo install mungkin bgitu balik jakarta (lagi di bali bok! woohoo!)

9500/4.7.0.131 at Rapidshare, at Depositfiles
9530/4.7.0.132 at Rapidshare, at Depositfiles

again.. this is beta, at your own risk

More socializing!! on facebook!

2009-04-22T02:09:00.000-07:00

Yuhuu.. para socialist? what the...? (^&#$%

seberapa kurang kah kita bersosialisasi? gw ngeliatnya orang indonesia tuh emang demen banget begini.. contoh: klo lo ditanya, dinosaurus yang bs terbang namanya apa? apa lo bakal nanya temen lo yg kutubuku atau liat buku / internet? .. berdasarkan survey (yg ga tau cukup valid apa ga), orang indonesia cenderung lebih milih nanya daripada cari tau jawaban sendiri! atau: berapa banyak mobil (ga usah gps deh ya) yg punya peta di mobilnya? gw yakin banyakan yg ga punya. bukan karena peta mahal, karena emang uda jadi kebiasaan nanya.... why? apa biar cepet? atau emang lebih nyaman nanya? atau males liat peta/buku/internet? atau apa? you decide deh.. termasuk ada peribahasa "malu bertanya sesat dijalan" bukan "malu buka peta sesat dijalan"

hasil suka sosialisasi ini terbukti di besarnya indonesia menyebar wabah blackberry dan virus. as i mentioned before, indonesia is the 4th biggest in signing up on bb account, kalo facebook? jangan ditanya deeeeeeh....

jaman chatting MiRc juga indonesia termasuk pakar dan pendahulu, lalu beralih ke ICW, MSN, YM, Gtalk, sekarang facebook! facebook chat that is!!
tapi teteeup.. gw mo gampangin hidup lo lagi nih.. ada caranya lo facebook chatting di BB free!!! oh yaaaa??? "duh ario hebat deh, gmn sih caranya?"" halaaaaah...

1. (preferable dari komputer tapi lwt bb jg bs) bikin account di www.palringo.com..

2. dari bb, masuk ke blackberry help, social networking, download & install program yg namanya palringo (paling bawah)

3. silahkan dinyalakan palringo, login...

keuntungan palringo selain bisa facebook chat, dia ngegabungin smua jenis chatting yang ada (YM, Windows Live Messenger, Gtalk, Facebook), artinya lo bs apus chatting yang lain buat save tempat (biar ga kena hantu email hihihi).. 1 lagi.. its FREE (unlike beejive) ;)

note: mudah2an jalan di semua device.. jujur di storm malah belom sempurna.. susah banget makenya!! palringo jg bs di windows mobile, iphone, symbian.. buanyak!

mungkin kekurangannya:
- ga ada profile pic
- ga ada notification di home screen :(
- layout msh kurang canggih kali ya

oh well.. win some loose some

Blackberry JOVENIC!!

2009-04-21T19:22:00.000-07:00

ada blackberry baruuuuuu....
uda masuk indonesiaa!!! juara nih beritanya..
masih hangat.. masih hangatt..

klo smalem nonton berita di tv, atau kompas pagi ini, 22 April 2009, ada nih britanya. tentang penyelundupan 506 blackberry.. baca baik2 deh di kompas, apa aja blackberry yang diselundupin??

Bold..

Storm..

and JOVENIC!!! WTF??

what do you think?? baru? which means gw dan blog2 blackberry lainnya blm pernah denger? atau mistype??? kompas gituuuuuuu...

AKHIRNYA... facebook 1.5!!

2009-04-21T15:57:00.000-07:00

facebook 1.5 akhirnya keluar RESMI!

artinya, skrg bkn cmn buat bold and jave doang! (mudah2an) gw ud bs install di storm, and tolong yg pake curve kabarin gmn bs apa gak nih..

capcus ciiiin..

Blackberry App world: Toko software online??

2009-04-20T19:54:00.000-07:00

apa sih Blackberry App World?

adalah sebuah aplikasi yang bekerja sebagai portal dari RIM untuk mendapatkan aplikasi buat blackberry anda.. arti dari "mendapatkan" ya bisa gratis, bisa bayar! ini mirip dengan itunes storenya apple yang jual aplikasi buat iphone dan windows mobile juga mo bikin hal yg serupa.

Cara kerjanya? aplikasi ini diinstall langsung di BB, bisa liat2 aplikasi lain lewat app world, pilih, dan download!, tp itu klo yg free.. yang gak free, harus setup paypal account dulu. Jujur gw blm pernah nyoba beli (secara gw banci gratisan! haha).. aplikasi yang terdownload, langsung terinstall di bb.

Efektif? well, tergantung dr mana lo ngeliatnya.. cepet atau gaknya ya, tergantung koneksi operator. Memang lebih enak buat liat2 aplikasi, screenshotnya, reviewnya, harga, dan deskripsinya... tapi.. aplikasi bb agak mahal2 (dimana itunes store kebanyakan aplikasinya cmn $0.99) Selama bwt download yg free2 aja, why not! :) kalo diperhatiin top 25 appnya, hampir smuanya free!! hahaha..

Dapet dimana? buka www.blackberry.com/appworld atau buka blackberry help (www.blackberry.com/mobile/help) dr BB. Tapi ada tapinya tapi.. ??
so far sih gw cmn bs nemuin appworld di bb asal US or Canada (Rogers, Telus, ATT, Verizon). Kebetulan gw verizon dan temen gw rogers bs, bini gw ga ada di t-mobile german (qwertz).. mungkin belum kali ya??

cobain deh, u mite like it

Struck by Storm

2009-04-16T22:45:00.000-07:00

If you noticed my pin on about me, it changed! why? karena gw ganti storm!!! hahaha.. why ?? why?? but why???

iy tuh.. agak setengah hati jg sih.. bokap gw pengen bold (sblmnya curve), mo ambil punya gw, akhirnya gw dikasih duit yg pas2an, bwt bli storm 2nd.. Gw tertarik challengenya!! emang susah pake storm, ga nyaman, cape, lebih berat, ngeri ringkih karena touch screen (based on my experience... IYA SIH!)

ternyata storm is not so bad afterall.. its great actually!! i was challenged at the beginning, sampe agak kesel gitu! tapi ya udlah ya... moso langsung ganti lagi? dari storm lah gw sadar os 5.0 itu ya osnya storm dipindahin ke device qwerty.. hoho.. i got the os 5.0 look..(just with more difficult keyboard) jan**uk!!..

gw trima 2nd dgn os 4.7.0.99... agak slow ya? mo coba upgrade ternyata ga segampang itu! ud coba secara biasa (apus & tidak apus vendor.xml), lwt apploader, wipe dulu baru upgrade.. ternyata bisanya lewat battery pull! (baru tau kan banyak cara buat upgrade?? :P) msh ada lagi sih pake crackmem.. cmn itu cara terakhir deh bwt gw..

yang lucu adalah cara ke helpnya... kalo di qwerty device itu alt + aA + H, inget kan? nah ini beda!! ada yg bisa tebak??

Review OS 5.0 ... akhirnya

2009-04-15T20:06:00.000-07:00

hehhehe.. yang ditunggu2 beberapa orang nih..

well.. ceritanya gini, bgitu gw baca tentang 5.0 langsung deh, ni banci upgrade ngiler!! 4.6.0.247 to 5.0.0.90 is a HUGE leap! penasaran lah rasanya..

Warning dateng dari beberapa arah bahwa itu buggy, incompatible, etc, etc.. cmn, nothing can stop my curiosity! hahaha reus bgt ga sih?

setelah selese download file over 100mb di internet mpot2an, upgrade lah gw. Beruntung ini ga perlu desktop manager 5.0 (yang gw kasih linknya kemaren). Walaupun udah ada, tapi lama lagi download! mending nanti aja ya bok? Gw akhirnya upgrade pake 4.6 dengan cara normal, install, apus vendor.xml, upgrade.. no difference! sempet khawatir waktu upgrade karena sesudah dia upgrade sampe di bagian restoring, kok ada tulisan error 507 walaupun juga nunjukin progress bar yang ngasih tau bahwa emang proses masih berjalan! ok, gw tunggu aja dulu

selese upgrade, restore, jalan lah gw di os5.0! basically, OS5.0 buat bold & jav yg uda keluar ini itu ada lah os storm (4.7.x.x) in disguise!! maksudnya, hampir smua beda di layout itu bisa diliat di storm, atau boleh dibilang sama persis! (tentu dengan penyesuaian ukuran layar dan tanpa teknologi touch screen..uupss suretouch!). Layout BBMnya sama kayak 2 line di tiap nama, jadi statusnya ada dibawah nama; kolom buat nulis waktu chatting ada boxnya & smileys disamping; ga ada "my status", tapi digabung di "edit my info".. etc etc..

yang kedua adalah menu2 di settings, options etc.. jadi kalo di os sblmnya cmn tulisan di pilihan setting sebelah kanan, os5.0 (seperti storm) ada kotak2nya untuk piliihan. rounded menu box.

ketiga di bagian setting profiles.. sekarang mereka nyebutnya "sounds (normal)".. jadi dibagi2 tuh settingannya jadi phone, messages, instant messages, reminders, others.. seolah2 dikategoriin gitu.. lebih gampang diliat sih emang. Tambahaanya setting suara sekarang bukan low medium high lagi, tapi dari 1 sampe 10 and vibrate bs di customize lebih jauh. a good improvement though.

fitur2 baru?

- feedback: jadi seolah2 blackberry nerima feedback kalo ada aplikasi yang crash (ala-ala windows yang send error report). bisa diliat juga di settings, feedback.

- playlist: buat bikin playlist musik. duh!

- Flag messages: seru nih.. untuk email yang uda dibaca tapi blm dibales (red: butuh difollow up) bisa diflag dulu, dibales nanti (klo ga nyetir! :P). fitur yg sama kaya mail client di komputer.

- Memori management: inget HPE (Hantu Pemakan Email)? nah.. ini bedanya disaat bb lo mo keabisan space. dia kasih warning and actually NANYA file mana yg mo diapus..ga main apus aja.. sebenernya sih tinggal reset juga ok!.. tp ini enaknya ada warningnya! :D. Screenshot:

- File Explorer: sekarang ada file explorer kepisah.. ga lewat media lagi. kayanya dia bisa explore file network deh.. gw blm coba. kalo ada yang cobain boleh dikomen disini.

- Media: sekarang liat foto scrollingnya bisa pake trackball.. dan dia geser kaya iphone! haha.. agak telat nih fitur ini keluar :P

Overall performance menurut gw cukup stabil, cepet and batre? gw ga pernah bs ngukur tuh! :P...

downsidenya??????
ini dia nih yang ditunggu2... INCOMPATIBILITY!! artinya blm smua software cocok running di os5.0 yang parahnya.. buat most of my readers yang apparently bukan biz user lebih ke arah pengguna, chatting & facebook...... ini blm bisa MSN, Gtalk, ICQ, AIM, Facebook, MySpace, Viigo.. so far yang gw tau cmn bisa Twitterberry, Buzzme, .. (secara gw ga banyak pake software). Naaaah.. untuk YM, bisa download disini nih, a different version of YM made for os5.0. mayan deh.. tapi yang paling gw nyesek sih Facebook & Viigo... well.. bagi yang uda upgrade dan sedih ga ada facebook, coba pikirin deh.. how productive your life is without facebook?? hahahahhahahah...

tetep masih blm bs send biz card via bluetooth or sms.. tetep vibrate n ring harus pake software tambahan.. tetep interfacenya ga setajem winmo atau iphone.. (wah yg terakhir subjective nih) :P

overall sih gw bilang smua ini improvement.. incompatibility pasti nanti jg akan ilang... liat aja YM, baru 2 hr release beta, uda update aja YM buat 5.0. Tunggu versi berikutnya, sebenernya 5.0.0.110 uda ada, cmn blm leaked aja. tunggu lanjutannya di sheggario.blogspot.com! halah.. uda kaya iklan tipi!

sedikit cuplikan video (bukan dr gw, dr youtube)

my weekend: lost & broke phones, Macheda winner, ...

2009-04-12T20:00:00.000-07:00

ceritanya gini, sabtu niih, abis futsal, Iphone gw jatoh gara2 tas kebuka lebar. Posisi jatohnya flat out on screen. Waktu gw angkat, no scratch, no dent.. it was perfect! gw coba nyalain, masih nyala...

Good thing Federico Macheda has made it easier for me for his 2nd goal in a week, a real life savior for Manchester United!! bodo amat orang bilang hoki.. pokoknya GOL & MENANG! hahaha.. pengen banget sih nyela liverpool abis kalah ama chelsea.. cmn tunggu hasil porto dulu aaah. hihihih... well done lads.. another good win, 6 to go! ;)

about BB... here we go.. a good week for leaks.. we got OS5 for bold, now we have JAV and desktop manager 5 for your windows!.. ain't it great? sorry gw blm sempet nyoba, kendala internet dan kepemilikan mac yg bikin lama.. hari ini gw dapet filenya dan mudah2an bisa upgrade. Kabarnya sih masih sering restart & ga bisa pake IM lain (YM, MSN, Gtalk, etc) slain BBM... kurang ga sih?

lanjut?
- Jav OS 5.0
- Desktop Manager 5.0

bocor2 gini... jadi ngingetin gw nonton wolverine yang uda bocor juga bahkan sebelom final editing.. Jadi film belom slese, masih ada 3D kasarnya uda bocor! ada yg uda nonton blm? this 1 caused an executive at Fox got fired! huhu.. is there a RIM exec got fired for this? it would be unlikely..

R.I.P Jade Santoso?

2009-04-08T22:51:00.001-07:00

Does anyone else gets this kind of message @ your bbm?

"Beloved friend of mine just passed away. She's almost done university. She's gorgeous and kind. She's still young and she's friendly. She's nice to everyone and she's a woman with good heart but she died.. She was driving fast on toll road while she's doing blackberry messenger.. She PING my other friend without seeing a BIG container in front of her. Her name is Jade Santoso. She's american bali, UPH student. Time can't be turned back. But through this case it is good to learn something from her.. Pls don't do anything to (correction: with) ur phone (if its not necessary), no sms, call even though BBM-ing while driving. May she rest in peace.. (Pls fwd to anyone u care)"

is this true? jujur gw ga kenal jade. I couldn't find her on facebook. I couldn't find anything tentang berita ini.. yg gw nemu cmn di youtube.. smacem memorial gitu..

look what BB can do to us!! ati2 yaa.. I'm happy you got BB but don't over do things.. dont type and drive!!! may u rest in peace jade..

OS 5.0

2009-04-07T21:14:00.000-07:00

beloom, belom kluar.. don't get too excited with the title!
tapi disini gw nemu video OS 5.0 bakal kaya gimana..beberapa fitur yg dikasu 0S 5.0 sih tempting bgt! such as:
* ada progress barnya waktu booting, setidaknya ketidaksabaran terbantu
* Trackball “flicking” through pictures
* tombol2 menunya lebih keliatan besar
* Browsernya beda... lebih apa ya?
* BlackBerry Messenger beda?

mayan nih.. nunggu2 inovasi baru dari BB. harusnya keluar May. (mudah2an) abis.. device2 baru kayanya ga jelas gitu.. niagara cdma, gemini lagi lebih ga jelas.. Magnum, pluto?? lebaaay!! studiohp.com dengan yakinnya ngasih penawaran inden!! buka ini dan ini..gosipnya ada yg uda jual lah.. apa lah.. do u guys even see the pictures they show? does that look real to you? come on.. even i can do that with photoshop.. jadii.. kita tunggu yg come closest aja? OS5.0? niagara? gemini? or even storm 2?? Onyx? Driftwood? banyak bangeeeet! yg bener yg mana? RIM uda mo kaya nokiyem nih.. kebanyakan seri!! :(

janjinya.. OS5 bakal bisa:
* Flag messages and set reminder times on your BlackBerry!!!
* View personal contact subfolders and edit contacts! Until now BES used to put all of your contacts into the Contacts application even if they were in different folders.
* You will be able to view and use contacts that are in public folders and copy them to your local contact list if you have permissions.
* You will have a file browser to access shared network locations to open, add, or save documents. You will be able to see document information from there such as file type, size, and date
* Forward meeting invitations and calendar entries from your BlackBerry
* Ability to add, delete, move, or rename personal folders
* OS 5.0: Ability to view personal distribution lists that you have in your Outlook contacts and send email to them.
* RIM is working on a solution to make emails that come from your BlackBerry look exactly like they would if they came from Outlook. I always hated the fact that people could see that I was on my Berry.

anyway.. ini sneak peaknya...

STORM DISCONTINUE!!

2009-04-01T08:26:00.000-07:00

inget ga gw pernah dapet free Javelin di launching Javelin dari Indosat? what?? oia gw ga pernah cerita! hahaha... yah well, waktu itu ada launching Javelin dari Indosat, ada free javelin 1 gratis buat pemilik contacts di BBM terbanyak!! well, waktu itu beruntunglah aku jadi yg terbanyak malem itu dengan 335 contacts.. that was about 3 months ago kynya... horeee...

nah .. lg nunggu launching storm nih dari operator, mengharapkan gratisan lagi, secara contact list gw uda tumbuuuhh.. tapi, kayanya ga bakal kejadian deh.. katanya discontinue nih, katanya ga diproduksi lagi! ternyata orang pada ga suka ya suretouch screen? emang susah sih, tp moso ampe discontinue? parah banget?

gw juga nemu ini nih.. ternyata iPhone makin kuat! naik persentasenya beberapa bulan terakhir! juara ya? RIM, Symbian, Windows Mobile, smuanya turuunnn run run run forrest! lho?

sedih banget nih dengernya.. harus buru2 nyari storm nih.. langka soalnya!! seru banget klo punya.. walaupun payah...

liat berita lanjutannya di link ini deh..... :(

NEW Chat Client

2009-03-28T03:03:00.000-07:00

Chatting makan waktu lebih dari 50% kegiatan lo di BB, bener ga?
malah ada yg buat chatting doang tanpa ngeset imel! trust me, i kno them!

ya sedikit hiburan buat lo, YM, Windows Live, GTalk, ICQ, AIM, ada upgradenya ke 2.1.44! ga ngerti bedanya apa, cmn klo yg namanya banci upgrade, harus nih..
cara upgrade ya gampang.. dari blackberry helpnya di BB lo aja.. atau alamat ini

kalo mo bayar.. coba cari aplikasi namanya beejive atau IM+.. yang terbaru uda termasuk facebook chat! ini berlaku buat iphone and winmo juga! ada tapinya.. selain aplikasi itu bayar, juga makan pulsa! kenapa? karena dia ga pake apn bb.. jadi diitung per kb! huhuh.. ga usa gw kasih linknya ya? klo bener2 niat.. cari ndiri! :P

hehe.. updatenya dikit2 ya... I am overwhelmed with work! :(

"almost" perfect weekend..

2009-03-15T20:54:00.001-07:00

hhh.. sbnrnya sih weekend gw uda ok banget.. dateng TIGA, bantuin kawinan sodara, futsal, "sundaze" di barcode... no work, all play! what could be better?? tapiiii.... ada satu yang sangat mangat mengesalkan!! males gw ngomongin.. pokoknya gw berharap, MU ketemu Liv di champions.. and there shall be vengeance!! :P

Facebook 1.5

first thing first... untuk beberapa yang uda nunggu, facebook 1.5 bocor nih bisa di download..
bedanya apa? yang paling significant mungkin kemampuannya synchronize sama contacts, calendar, and message! maksudnya sync adalah... jadi dia nyamain data yg ada di bb ama di facebook.. contacts (foto, no tlp kalo ada, bday), calender (events), ama message... maksudnya message disini, smua notification facebook, masuk jg ke message lo di bb, bukan logo surat di kirinya, tp pake logo fb... cobain deh.. u will see. (so far, it only works on bold and jav as far as i know)

download disini lewat blackberry lo

Blackberry 9630 Niagara

Gemini asides, Magnum/pluto asides..... this is the real deal! the next blackberry out.. I got pictures, video, and all things about bb Niagara.. here you go..

The comparison between jav, nia, and bold

closer .. over a leopard (sum1 i know must like this photo)

video.. says it better..

what makes it different that it runs on CDMA network (as usual, code name ending up with xx30 is cdma).. sisanya more/less mirip ama jav (in features). So far bs diliat dari bodinya dulu, atasnya mirip jav, bawahnya mirip bold!. Dalemnya msh blm jelas.. dia pake 4.7.0.71!! pake 4.7 tuh brarti pake apa yg dipake storm! tapi inget ini bukan touch screen.. soooo ga mungkin sama juga kali ya... Firmwarenya masih belom bener, as u can c on the video.. it keeps restarting. U Likey??

My all black bold with yellow trackball! :D

Uhuy, it finally arrives.. all my (and my friends') order!! here it is.. sesudah dipasang tadi pagi! :D

the black buttons... spot the difference? sorry agak blur.. cmn pake iphone fotonya..

yellowwww.....

hope you enjoy my post! :)

================================

What do you think? I think its a bit strange. Emang sih ini ada di websitenya Indosat, gw cmn bingung motif dan cara kerjanya aja.. motif mungkin untuk melihat berapa banyak pengguna bb? pengguna isat? pengguna isat bb? apa gak terlalu "kasar" surveynya? (kasar maksudnya ga akurat lah, bukan kasar secara fisik :P).. trus? 6 bb dibagiin buat survey bgini? jadi penasaran seberapa ketat sih persaingan BB antar operator? yang jelas sih harga udah semakin turun terus tanpa mikirin kualitas.. ganti2an tmn2 gw komplen isat ginilah, xl gitulah, tsel sama aja... trus gmn dong?? pake apa dooong???

cara kerjanya gmn? kita join group di facebook, trus.. mereka ngitungnya gmn? so far group itu uda isi over 12000 orang!! trus cara ngeliat tiap anggotanya nge-add brp dalam seminggu gmn?? will it be fair? apa ini di audit resmi? apa gmn? masih bingung.. can someone shed a light on this??? gw sih ga ikut.. so far gw ga terima friend request FaceBook yang gw ga kenal..so far gw kenal dan ga mo sembarangan... abissss.. foto2nya agak gawat! :D

mungkin orang isat ada yang baca? (yang jelas ga boleh marah, hahahahha)

Lumayaaan niii.. aplikasi2 gretong!

2009-03-03T18:42:00.000-08:00

Salah satu kendala kita punya blackberry yaa.. aplikasinya ga bisa di"goyang" kaya windows mobile, symbian, atau iphone... jadi.. kita semangat banget bgitu ada aplikasi gratisan yang bakal berguna. Yang uda pasti smua pake kan facebook, YM, MSN, Gtalk, Gmail, Viigo, mungkin MySpace, Flickr, i-gps, samecell?

akhir2 ini yang gw tambahin di gw buzzme (buat bikin vibrate and ring at the same time), Nav4All (aplikasi GPS gratisan, although susah banget makenya!), and missinglight (bikin LED nyala ungu kalo ada missed call) ..naaah.. sekarang keluar beberapa lagi nih yang lumayan.. :)

1. BB Light

Aplikasi ini adalah perpanjangan dari BuzzMe.. bisa bikin vibrate and ring at the same time plussss bisa ngeset interval (jarak waktu) antar vibratenya, lama vibrate, dll.. dicoba aja.. klo ga suka install. Saran gw, bagi yang uda punya BuzzMe, diilangin dulu baru install BB Light, biar ga konflik.
download OTA

2. bluCtrl (baca blue control)

maksudnya kontrol lewat blutut!.. ini jujur gw blm coba, coz i don't think its compatible with mac. cobain dong.. kalo ada yg coba, review.. Basically ini bikin BB lo bs jd mouse (trackball) & keyboard! canggih ciiiin!! seru dipake buat presentasi, main komputer sambil tiduran, atau iseng pamer what your BB can do!! :P sayangnya harus lo buka webnya, ga bs donlot di bb.. buka di bluctrl web

3. StormLock

Yang ini khusus buat storm, dan bikin storm jadi iphone! well, at least cara unlocknya (di slide).. abis itu kasih theme iphone! hehehe.. ga penting sih.. boleh lah buat lucu2an :) download OTA disini

4. MissingLight

Ini simple banget, kerjanya cuman bikin LED nyala ungu kalo ada missed call. Programnya ga keliatan di menu, uda otomatis aktif, dan ukuran filenya less than 2kb. no harm, no foul! download OTA. Sorry, no pics because you can't see anything on your BB except the purple LED.. tapiiii..... gw baru buka lagi hari ini... ternyata uda bayar!!! maap!! :( guess we always have to be quick for freebees... (untung gw uda dapet).. baca penjelasannya disini

mudah2an membantu ya? aplikasinya ga bagus2 banget.. not top of the line! iyalah yaaaa gratisan secara!.. play around with it, kalo ga suka, tinggal di uninstall di options, advance, applications,... delete deh! rileeeeekssss... jangan kaya di waaaaxxxx $!@%??

BOLD OS 4.6.0.245! red trackball, black buttons, and other modifications

2009-03-02T19:16:00.000-08:00

here you go:
4.6.0.245
updates asides... lets look at what I found on the web again...

1. Black Buttons on bold!!
gw lagi pesen black buttons buat bold.. yang gw maksud black buttons tuh tombol volume, convenience key kiri & kanan, cover memori card, & tombol mute semuanya warna item.. seru banget nih bikin bold gw bener2 item smua! after black bezel, black trackball, now black buttons.. gw fotoin klo uda gw pasang ok?

2. red trackball.. and purple
ini jg pengen gw pesen (yg merah) dengan tujuan... ISENG! hihi.. abis sayang ongkir mahal klo ga pesen banyak rugi :D lucu jg kali ya? mmm, merah atau ungu? atau KUNING?? ada yg mo pesen bareng?

3. leather skins
ini gw ga pesen.. msh dipikirkan! what do u think? ada yg mo pesen bareng gw biar murah? wait a minute, gw uda tanya itu ya? heuheueh anywaaay.. klo ini gampang banget gantinya tinggal copot tutup batre doang.. seru kan? bisa lepas pasang tanpa obeng, minta bantuan...

uler emasssssss.... hahaha

anyway.. back to the world of gadgets, ..

beberapa hari lalu gw terima email dari temen gw, ini bukan spam, bukan surat brantai, tapi pengalaman pribadi dia dengan mainannya: (kepada bung andri batghost, mudah2an tidak apa2 saya kutip emailnya)
=============================
Ngutip dari Wiki Blackberry
Crackberry

Crackberry berasal dari kata crack yang berarti kokain dan kata Blackbery. Kemudahan yang dihadirkan dalam mengakses e-mail dan pesan instan membuat para pengguna seringkali tak bisa lepas dari Blackberry. Efek yang dihasilkan membuat para pengguna tampak seperti orang yang kecanduan dengan Blackberry. Crackberry pun menimbulkan kekhawatiran akan perubahan ritme kerja menjadi tidak sehat.dan hilangnya keseimbangan hidup.

-----------------------------------------------------

Namun anehnya, Windows Mobile juga sudah bisa menghadirkan kecanduan tersendiri yang jauh lebih bernuansa, berikut pengalaman menarik :

1. Pagi = Gue synchronize SPB Online 1.2 ke beberapa majalah Detiknews, Engadget, Gottabemobile, Pocketnow, Rlslog, SPB Club, dan Techcrunch

2. Mau ke kantor = Baca koran pas nyetir di daerah macet, + Konek lagu pake Headphone dengan Pocket Player 3.7 + Sesekali follow URL dari koran pake Opera 9.5

3. Di kantor = konek ke Radio Sky.FM pake Resco Radio, kadang kalo denger jazz, enaknya Resco Radio sudah bisa ngerekam

4. Pas makan siang = kadang dapet update dari staff, terus gue cek pake Softmaker Office 2008 untuk buka attachment File Excel Word, atau pake Adobe reader buat PDF

5. Cek schedule meeting = buka Pocket Informant 2008 (kebetulan yang diinul pun bisa diupdate lho)

6. Cari nomor telepon Client = gue lebih demen pake Vito FunContact ,lebih cepet dan ada T9 Pad

7. Pas meeting di Client = jangan lupa pake Vito Audio Notes untuk rekam bahan Rapat, dan ambil foto apa aja yang ditulis di whiteboard, jadi gak usah pake pulpen dan kertas lagi, kalo mau nyatet pake Phatnotes

8. Menjelang sore = ngecek facebook di m.facebook.com , kadang nulis di wall, dan gak lupa Update Koran SPB Online

9. Mau berangkat pulang = aktifin Google Latitude = sambil call temen yang ada di sekitar Latitude, nanya mau makan malem bareng gak

10. Di pertengahan jalan = Nongkrong di warung ama temen = kembali baca koran pake SPB Online sambil ngobrol

11. Sesampai di Rumah = ngecek RSS nya XDA-developers ada info baru, kalo ada nyedot deh di PC

12. Menjelang mau bobo = copy file film yg udah didonlod PC, pindahin ke PPC, terus nonton pake CorePlayer 1.3 sambil tiduran

13. Pas bobo = mikirin jangan sampe ada batere yang kelupaan gak di charge pake Charger Jepit 25.000

14. Pagi pagi bangun biasanya PDA udah dipindahin ama bini takut jatuh, hehehe

----------------

15. Pas weekend - cek Point Of Interest di Navigasi.Net, masukin ke IGo 8, terus pake Bahasa Indonesia, seperti contoh ke Pasar Ular, karena gue gak apal jalanan jakarta utara

16. Pas di Pasar Uler biasanya Bini repot cari - cari Baju, pastikan SPB Online gue udah di Update Feed nya, jadi bisa baca bace

----------------

17. Awal bulan biasanya harus bayar Listrik Telepon Cicilan dsb = gue pake SPB Wallet 2.0

18. Akhir bulan nyocokin pengeluaran pake SPB Finance

Huaaah jadi selama ini gue sadari kalau BB gak lebih cuma buat pager aja sih kalo pas ada email,jadi mending beli yang murah aja, kecuali Windows Mobile tercinta

Semoga bermanfaat pengalaman ini, atau anda punya pengalaman yang jauh lebih menarik ??
=============================

dia pejuang windows mobile nih.. doi jg pake BB, jadi boleh dibilang agak fair juga dengan perbandingannya. yang gw salut, time management yang luar biasa!! seaddict2nya gw, ga akan sanggup ngelakuin itu smua..yg jadi rutin di gw..

1. bangun pagi, baca email (yg banyakan junk mail) dari semalem dan akhir2 ini ngapusin virus2 YM! huh.. abis itu, baca RSS (soccernet, berryreview, engadget, bbgeeks, etc etc etc..) biasanya itu skim thru, kecuali ada brita yang bener2 menarik

2. sepanjang hari sebisa mungkin melayani chattingan, panggilan, teriakan minta bantuan orang.. hehee

3. sepanjang hari juga terima email dan langsung bales... tapi klo ada attachmentnya males.. enakan di komputer

4. sepanjang hari juga balesin fesbuuuuk...

5.. udah..

kalo weekend:

6. selalu uptodate dengan liga inggris melalui soccernet.com, wap.fantasy.premierleague.com sama livescores.com

apa lagi yaaa???
hehe..

kegiatan gw depan komputer rasanya lebih banyak.. dan .. yg paling banyak ya.. kerjaan dan ngurus kehidupan duniawii (keluarga n kuliah). bukan dunia (luna) maya! :P

gw sendiri masih pake iphone dan htc mogul bwt cdma.. Iphone jujur lebih menyita waktu! well, lebih tepatnya kalo lo mo "bunuh" waktu.. karena gamenya ga ada matinya!! keren2 banget! gw suka maen heroes of sparta, monopoly, millionare, dinerdash, live poker (ini kalo ada wifi kenceng n gretong)..

sedangkan htc mogulnya yg agak neglected.. cmn gw pake bwt tlp, sms, (yg sebenernya gw benci karena sering susah nelp pake esia), dan kalender... ga tau knp gw masih lebih suka kalendernya windows mobile...

anyway.. u decide which addict u are and hopefully inget.. gadget suppose to support ur life.. not ur life supporting ur gadget!!! jangan kaya gw!!!! hahahahah

Cloning BB: part 2

2009-02-18T21:33:00.001-08:00

Mungkin orang yang uda pernah clone bb orang, trus dimanfaatin untuk keuntungan dia, baca blog gw bs blg "payah ni blog, baru tau!".. hehe.. cupu ya? tp gpp lah, stidaknya gw cmn berniat informatif.. bukan nyusahin! :P@!#S

website namanya furious gold bikin sofwer yang bs buat cloning, BBtool namanya.. nih sneak peaknya

a picture says a thousand word?

harga aplikasi ini cukup gila sih.. Euro239! tapi klo orang mo bisnisin unlock, change imei, CLONING, mungkin worth it? tapi yang jelas gw ga rekomen banget.. denger2 dari RIM, bahwa mereka sebenernya ada 3 tier (kode) 1. imei, 2. pin, 1 lagi ini yg gw blm jelas apa.. jadi mereka bakal counter balik nih masalah ini, mudah2an..

gw sama skali ga rekomen untuk maen yg aneh2 ini.. resikonya:
1. kalo gagal, bb bs mati,
2. kalo ketauan, yaaa.. mungkin blm ada hukumnya.. yg jelas bakal ga enak deh
3. ga etis laaah? :)

apa ini salah satu alesan Obama ga boleh pake BB? bs di cloning? otomatis klo di clone kan bs aja email2 yg ditujukan ke dia masuk ke bb clonenya ini? ternyata they know more than we are (ya iyalaaaaah)
parahnya obama, bs jg di celeb2? huehuehueh...

there are decent, honest, and better way to make money, right? ;)

IM clients update: 2.1.41

2009-02-18T21:30:00.000-08:00

IM clients lo bisa diupdate nih..
yang dimaksud IM clients, mungkin ada yang pake YM, Windows Live, Gtalk, ampe ICQ, AOL, smua bs diupdate dari versi 2.1.37 ke 2.1.41..

ga jelas sih perbedaan apa.. yang baru ketauan dia ada disclaimer screen abis diinstall pas lo mo nyalain aplikasinya.

downloadnya lewat bb, biasa laaah.. di blackberry help

cari di bagian IM & social networking, minta download aja.. nanti dia nimpa!

GEMINI??? BENER NIHH??

2009-02-11T02:25:00.000-08:00

baru kemaren gw nulis ttg gemini, ternyata, gosipnya ga 100% bener!! :(
ada yang bilang gemini itu codename buat 8235!!! wah, baru lagi tuh akhirannya 5!
Ampun bang RIM, lama2 agak2 nokiyem nih banyak banget serinya!

8235 gosipnya (again) adalah varian terbaru dari curve, perbedaanya?? nih.. maut! OSnya 5.0!! huehuehueh.. kelebihan OS 5.0? wah wah.. ga ikutan deh.. ntar aja klo uda ada brita resmi! :)

Itu sih perbedaan utama, masalah bentuk, fitur lain, gw jg masih ga tau.. jadi bingung nih.. gemini itu 9300, atau 8235???? only time will tell.. pokoknya ada perkembangan lagi gw kabarin okeeeh?

rileeeeksssss....

Cloning BB

2009-02-10T00:00:00.000-08:00

Uda pernah denger tentang Cloning BB?
Uda pernah denger BB pin Suspended..
atau akhir2 ini ada yg terima msg gini:

-----

Dear friend,
Saya menghimbau (bukan melarang) teman-teman yang menggunakan BlackBerry untuk TIDAK mempublikasikan PIN-nya, apalagi digabungkan dengan IMEI. Sebaiknya tidak memberikan PIN pada orang-orang yang tidak kita kenal, dan sebaiknya juga tidak mencantumkan sebagai Signature dalam eMail...

Belakangan ini, sejalan dengan meningkatnya pengguna dan permintaan akan HandHeld BlackBerry, banyak masuk BlackBerry yang "Bodong". Disebut Bodong karena sebenarnya PIN-nya Suspended (di Block oleh RIM = Research In Motion, yang merupakan operator jaringan BlackBerry). HandHeld yang PIN-nya Suspended, tidak dapat digunakan untuk BlackBerry Internet Services.

Jadi, fungsinya hanya seperti Handphone biasa, hanya bisa digunakan untuk telepon dan SMS saja...

Namanya bukan Orang Indonesia kalau nggak bisa menyiasati hal ini. Dari dulu Orang Indonesia terkenal jago dalam urusan Hack & Crack ini (nggak tau apa kita harus bangga atau malu...).

Ada beberapa pihak yang sudah bisa melakukan "Cloning" HandHeld BlackBerry. Secara singkatnya, HandHeld yang "hidup" disalin isi ROM-nya ke dalam ROM HandHeld yang bodong tadi. Akibatnya, salah satu jadi tidak bisa berkomunikasi dengan Server RIM karena PIN-nya Double. Untuk melakukan hal inilah mereka membutuhkan PIN dan IMEI yang "hidup"...

Pihak Operator beserta pihak berwajib sudah dan sedang berusaha menelusuri dan menindak para BlackBerry Clonner ini. Tapi, seperti biasa, yang namanya Maling selalu lebih pintar dibandingkan Polisi... Lebih baik mengantisipasi hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan daripada menyesal nantinya...

Apa yang harus dilakukan kalau tiba-tiba BlackBerry kita keluar pesan yang menandakan PIN Double/ PIN Conflict...? -? Segera laporkan ke Operator Blackberry yang diikuti (Indosat, XL atau Telkomsel) dengan membawa bukti kepemilikan PIN dan IMEI (Box atau surat-surat lainnya)

-----

Bener gak pesan berantai ini? well, sebagai bukan bagian ofisial dari apa, gw cmn bisa ngasih my point of view. Secara logika its possible!! dan kalo ga salah itu dimulai dari China! well, I don't know and can't confirm for sure.

Bagi gw tindakan ini jahat banget, selain RIM & operator yang jadi korban (korban image, part of responsibility), pemakai PIN & IMEI yang bersangkutan, yang juga ga tau apa2 yang notabenenya user, kena juga.. its just not fair. Saran2 yang bs gw kasih, mungkin bisa berguna buat yang mo beli BB:

- Beli garansi yang jelas: biar kalo ada apa2, terjadi kloning, bisa dipertanggungjawabkan, at least biar operator/RIM yang urusan ama cloner.
- ya bener, jgn kasih pin & IMEI sembarangan..
- ya kalaupun harus beli BM, please banget... ati2 ama orangnya.. jangan sembarangan, cari yang bisa tanggung jawab, yang punya kode etik, apalah istilahnya..

Mudah2an ada ini bisa cepet diberhentiin.. biar kita jalan lurus aja deh.. beda 100 - 200rb, klo diitung dari harga 5jt keatas kan cmn skitar 2%? gpp toh beli lebih mahal tapi terjamin? :)

think again .... ;)

Blackberry GEMINI: 9300 (93xx)

2009-02-09T23:44:00.000-08:00

Anda masih dalam tahap bimbang dilema ingin membeli BB yang seperti apa?

hehe.. masih ada lagi nih BB brikutnya.. after curve, bold, javelin, kickstart, storm,... here it comes.. GEMINI!! (code 93xx)

bentuknya sama banget ama Javelin, cmn beda warna daaaaaan.. ada sedikit perbedaan yang signifikan... 3G! hahahaha! penting banget! bikin beda kok cuman seiprit?? well, baru itu yang gw tau, kita liat nanti resminya gmn.. :)

tertarik?

thanks to boygenius..

loving iPhone

2009-02-09T20:58:00.000-08:00

berries..

bukannya penghianat nih, emang gw dasar maniak gadget (phones to be precise).. gw ga tahan godaan nyobain iPhone.. uda pernah sih, cmn sejak upgrade ke 2.2 kayanya enak? :)

2.2 proses push emailnya sudah lebih baik.. gw ngeset salah 1 email gw disitu (yahoo).. it does work as easy as using a BB. caranya ya tinggal pilih "mail", pilih aja ada yahoo, gmail, aol.. (jujur gw blm coba pop3,imap atau exchange).. dalam hal ini, iphone gak kalah.. lebih bagus lagi kalo disatuin gprs unlimited? ada ga ya operator yg ngasih gprs ulimited? tsel? isat? :) Mungkin kompresinya ga sebagus BB, tapi tampilannya juara banget! biasa laah.. kaya baca di komputer! dengan ciri khas zoom in zoom outnya iPhone! ;)

klo mo dibandingin apple to apple mungkin panjang, ga selesai, dan ga akan sempurnya ya. yang jelas, gw suka banget iPhone dari segi:

Fisik
Iphone masih lebih "seksi" bok dari segi bentuk.. gw masih pake iPhone 2G dan salah satu alesan belom pindah 3G karena bentuknya masih lebih bagus 2G...(padahal pengen punya speed 3G). Layar dan bodinya di claim anti gores (walaupun tampil telanjang).. gw happy banget ama form factornya.. mungkin agak sedikit berat, dalam 1 hal ngeruska kalo ditaro dikantong baju, tapi kalo terlalu ringan ga enak waktu digenggam.. so, back to preference...

Layar
Layarnya mantab! terang, bisa auto adjust brightness, dan anti scratch? (yang terakhir gw ga brani cfm 100%, gw pun pake screen protector).

Browsing
boleh deh kalah ama bb dalam push email & chatting.. But.. ABOVE ALL PHONES, hands down, IPHONE IS BEST for BROWSING!! beneran! safari is the best mobile internet browser! ngalahin opera, pocketIE, BB Browser! I'm not talking about the script!, but the look, ease of use, multi windows, etc.. tapiiii.. ada sih 1 kekurangan.. hehe.. doesn't allow heavy java script (coba buka detik.com, kerasa deh)

GAMES!!!
acceleromaternya maut! gw lagi seneng main labyrinth, monopoly, super monkeyball, iSniper... dan masih mo donlot banyak lagiiii!!! accelerometer persisnya cari definisinya di wiki, definisi dari gw adalah semacem sensor geraknya.. responsif banget! ga akan bisa di deskripsiin lewat tulisan.. lo harus harus harus nyobain.. its fun! :D

last but not least.....
limitless... the apps are there to download (legally and.... not?) ;).. gayanya lebih kearah windows mobile, symbian.. yang aplikasinya bisa digoyang! bukan kaya BB!! haha.. darah indo gw keliatan deh.. dasar!

boleh lah koh, klo uda bosen bb?

kabur ah..

How to take a picture without making a sound (shutter sound) alias.. colongan snapshot!!

2009-02-08T00:26:00.000-08:00

ada yang suka moto diem2? nangkep momen tertentu tiba2?
ada caranya nih, secara ada yg nanya gw kemaren ;)

klo lo lwt BB, donlot disini (OTA)

# On download screen tag 'Set application permissions' and click download.
# Select allow key injection (Newer OS version is called "Input Simulation").
# Disable dial from home screen option.
# Press keypad 'P' from home screen and aim.
# Or assign Peek-A-Boo to convinience key (SureType BlackBerry user).

lebih jelasnya ke site yg punya aja kali ya? :)

hasil foto boleh kirim ke gw.. dr yg lucu sampe yg "menantang" .. rambo kali menantang!

Concept phone: Mozilla Phone, + BB!!

2009-02-04T18:46:00.000-08:00

Banyak yang lagi ngomongin BB Pluto & Magnum. Beberapa temen gw jg ngasih tau bentuknya kaya gmn.. well actually smua foto yg lo liat ttg Pluto & Magnum itu photoshop mock up!! maksudnya, editan di photoshop... berasal dari foto bold, ama storm, digabung aja..
Beritanya sih bener, bahwa project brikutnya RIM itu emang magnum & pluto. RIM blm ngasih apa2 ttg kapan keluarnya, apalagi harganya.. and trus me.. it wont be soon!

gw mo ngasih 1 jenis concept lagi dari www.mozphone.com, gmn kira2 kalo mozilla mo bikin tlp & kerja sama ama BB..ini jg photoshop mock up, a concept.. bener apa gaknya ga tau, tapi yang jelas.. idenya MANTABBBSS!! markotof? halaaah..

mungkin disini keliatannya kaya pearl, cmn tombolnya aja nyala...

tapi.. konsepnya adalah tombol2 itu juga layar.. dan bisa ganti2 gambar.. bisa jadi shortcut buat facebook, wiki, yahoo, etc.. neat?

keren ga? :) i think its kinda brilliant

what do you think?
