  • Nokia vs Nokla

    Nokia vs Nokla

    Peniruan Tanda Dagangan atau ‘Trade Mark’ amat berleluasa di negara-negara Asia seperti China dan Thailand. Kombinasi 5 huruf N-O-K-I-A turut menjadi bahan ‘ciplak’ oleh Syarikat CECT Telecom, sebuah syarikat pengeluar telefon bimbit dari negara China yang menggunakan brand N-O-K-L-A untuk menjadi ‘pesaing’ Nokia N95. Sekali imbas pasti anda tidak sangka bahawa telefon yang menyerupai N95 ini adalah hanya ciplak dan tidak mempunyai ciri-ciri Nokia N95.

    Selain itu, terdapat juga model-model dan jenama-jenama lain yang diciplak seperti AiFeng VS iPhone, Scny Ericsscn VS Sony Ericsson Z610i, Veptu VS Vertu, Nokta N75 VS Nokia N73, Suny Ericssom VS Sony Ericsson, FUN VS PSP dan Anycall VS Samsung E908.

    So berhati-hatilah bila nak beli handset yer! Sekarang ni bukan takat Zitron & AP Set, China Set pun ada. Sekarang memang gempak bila dengar ada orang nak jual Nokia N95 dengan harga RM700-RM800. Katanya underwater la, kapal selam la, kastam la, last-last China Set. Member aku sendiri dah guna set ni, tapi sekarang dah rosak. Nak claim warranty pun tak boleh. Functionnya tak sama dengan N95 sebab dia gunakan sistem yang lain, bukan Symbian. Kamera agak gempak sebab guna 2.0MP, speaker pun agak kuat sebab speaker yang agak besar dan ada fungsi stylus pen untuk menu navigation, dan bukan untuk writing message. So pesanan untuk anda, jauhilah China Set atau nama lainnya CECT @ Nokla.

  • Infor: Astro TV Splitter

    Infor: Astro TV Splitter

    Sekadar memetik daripada artikel daripada SIM.Org.My berkaitan penggunaan satu dekoder Astro untuk banyak TV.

    Tamak kerana tawarkan lebih dari satu decoder dalam satu rumah, kemudian yuran langganan utk DMT kedua itu dikenakan pula 50% dari langganan DMT pertama iaitu sekiranya yuran DMT pertama RM80 sebulan, DMT kedua ialah RM40 sebulan. Ketamakan Astro menjadi-jadi bila hanya menawarkan DMT kedua kepada langganan yang melebihi RM80 sebulan saja, yang kurang RM80 sebulan, tak layak. Astro pandai mengumpan pelanggan dengan pemberian DMT percuma, kemudian mengikat pelanggan selama 24 bulan. Pelanggan pula kurang bijak, kerana tertarik dgn DMT Astro (yang harga tak seberapa) terpaksa tanggung yuran langganan selama 24 bulan. Sekiranya Astro mesra pelanggan, sepatutnya mereka perlu jual terus DMT tu pada pelanggan tanpa beri kad pintar kedua dan tak perlu bayar yuran untuk DMT kedua tu kerana ada teknologi yg membolehkan kad pintar dari DMT pertama itu dikongsi untuk beberapa DMT.

    Tak kisahlah kalau Astro sendiri yg memasarkan alat itu. Ada 3 jenis alat yg diberi nama card splitter ini.

  • 10 Strange Facts About Einstein

    So you think you know Albert Einstein: the absent-minded genius who gave us the theory of relativity (two of them, in fact, special theory and general theory of relativity), but did you know that Einstein was born with such a large head that his mother thought he was deformed? Or that Einstein had a secret child before he was married?

    Read on for more obscure facts about the life of the world’s smartest genius:

    1. Einstein Was a Fat Baby with Large Head

    When Albert’s mother, Pauline Einstein gave birth to him, she thought that Einstein’s head was so big and misshapen that he was deformed!

    As the back of the head seemed much too big, the family initially considered a monstrosity. The physician, however, was able to calm them down and some weeks later the shape of the head was normal. When Albert’s grandmother saw him for the first time she is reported to have muttered continuously “Much too fat, much too fat!” Contrasting all apprehensions Albert grew and developed normally except that he seemed a bit slow.

    2. Einstein Had Speech Difficulty as a Child

    As a child, Einstein seldom spoke. When he did, he spoke very slowly – indeed, he tried out entire sentences in his head (or muttered them under his breath) until he got them right before he spoke aloud. According to accounts, Einstein did this until he was nine years old. Einstein’s parents were fearful that he was retarded – of course, their fear was completely unfounded!

    One interesting anecdote, told by Otto Neugebauer, a historian of science, goes like this:

    As he was a late talker, his parents were worried. At last, at the supper table one night, he broke his silence to say, “The soup is too hot.”
    Greatly relieved, his parents asked why he had never said a word before.
    Albert replied, “Because up to now everything was in order.”     (Source)

    In his book, Thomas Sowell [wiki] noted that besides Einstein, many brilliant people developed speech relatively late in childhood. He called this condition The Einstein Syndrome.
