Got myself an ASUS DR-900 Eee Reader!

Sun, 03 Apr 2011 05:00:00 GMT

Today, I bought myself an ASUS DR-900 Eee Reader! A 9-inch e-ink reader! Finally, I can read full page (US Letter or A4) documents on a portable reading device.

Is it better than my 4-year-old Sony PRS-505 (a 6-inch ebook reader)? I think so.

Here is the About screen (system information) of the device:

Update: Asus has released new firmware updates and here is the link:

I finally have my official PCLL results today and am relieved!

Tue, 24 Aug 2010 05:00:00 GMT

I picked up the official results today and am relieved that it's finally done.

I am saddened by the hostage-taking tragedy in Manila, Philippines.

Mon, 23 Aug 2010 05:00:00 GMT

I am going to keep this simple.

It's so tragic & I am saddened. Those tourist hostages from Hong Kong didn't have to die if the situation was properly handled by the Manila police...

Also, the poorest people in Philippines are going to suffer because the country had essentially turned many tourists away.

The most important thing is that...people in HK should not be angry at the Filipino people (especially those migrant workers & domestic maids in HK). In my view, there is no place for hatred regardless of what had happened! Hatred is going to make matters worst.

R.I.P.
