Buying Apple’s White iPhone 4 in China, Will You?

June 16th, 2010 by CyperWin No comments »

Currently, Apple’s white iPhone 4 is not available for pre-order or in-store pickup. You would not be surprise to be able to buy Apple’s white iPhone 4 in China, as well.

I cannot be sure about its availability in this region, however, it may turn out to be a clone set.

What if, there isn’t a online store in China, while you just want to buy it from an ‘underground market‘. Perhaps a clone, with almost all the features.

From every offline store in the market, you may express a polite curiosity on the Apple’s white iPhone 4. Holding the iPhone 4 on your hand and examine it closely, trying the touch function and features.

But to a seller, he would have taken this for a canny interest. And each time you tried to walk away empty handed, he will reduced his prices by half, believing your lack of enthusiasm to be a wily bargaining ploy.

Do you compromise all the key functions for Apple’s iPhone 4, while just having the original outlook of a genuine iPhone 4?

On the surface, it looks just as cool as anyone using the iPhone 4 to play games, as a voice communication gadgets, maybe having integrated wi-fi feature that enable you to hook up onto a crappy connection.

After all, its still considered a much cheaper ‘white iPhone 4′ lookalike. Have fun!

Watch “The Secret Life of The American Teenage” from YouTube. At least an excerpts…

You may want to catch up with the latest episode of “The Secret Life of The American Teenage“. But hack!, you have to work over-time, to earn the extra pocket money. So the solution is to automate your TV recorder and watch it later when you get back home.

At times, all this prearrange effort may come to nought, because of wrong settings, timing, or technical glitches on the recording device. Probably, you have to read the thick manual on how-to, troubleshooting, Q & A topics…..

Nah!.. That takes time, you not going to do that.

Alternatively, you may want to watch The Secret Life of The American Teenageon YouTube, at least an excerpts of the entire episode. And this is what I’m doing.

Well, at least that is good enough to keep me going on the next day to social and discuss with friends about what happened to Amy Juergens, Ashley Juergens or Benjamin “Ben” Boykewich.

You hook on to the internet and start to search in YouTube for the latest “The Secret Life of The American Teenage, Season 3“. The video results turned out to be uploaded 1 year ago! Sometime, the smart search tool may give you the latest video uploaded 4 hours ago. And that is the latest episode, or perhaps not.. Its another erroneous search result..

Don’t give up! Try the YouTube “Search Options” located at the top left corner of your search result page. The fonts size are small, will find it if you look at the YouTube logo at top left corner.

This feature YouTube “Search Options” from has been around for long time, until recently I started to use it more frequently. Nothing new, but a very useful optional feature.

Now the search has become smarter, accustomed to your specific request. By default, YouTube “Search Options” is collapsed (hidden), and require user to expand the feature.

Expand it by clicking the down arrow, which is next to YouTube “Search Options”. You will see the menu breakdown into this few groups:-

  1. Result type:
  2. Sort by:
  3. Upload date:
  4. Categories:
  5. Duration:
  6. Features:

Quickest of all to get the real-time search result is to Sort By: Upload date.

All other options are based on one’s preference and requirement. No assurance that result is free from error. So pick the right video to watch. The options and latest search results are all there.

Below I have attached 2 screenshot on the feature of this “Search Options“. With and without defining search option, “Sort By: Upload date”

The obvious differences includes:-

  • When the video was uploaded, 6 months or 1 year, etc.
  • Number of visitors who have watch the video uploaded.

Sinkhole in Guatemala City; Surreal, Photoshop or Superimposed?

June 1st, 2010 by CyperWin No comments »

Leonardo da Vinci, beside recognized as a well-known Renaissance painter, has also regarded as an inventor of his time. His plans for flying machine was fascinated by the phenomenon of flight, most were impractical though.

To certain extend, I supposed his innovative ideas drafted out on paper, had given a good foresight to Wright brothers, who later invented world’s first airplane.

So has any old master artist predicted sinkhole in Guatemala City? None I have thought of, had portended in their paintings for the recent damage left by Tropical storm “Agatha”. Perhaps, Salvador Dali could have possibly produce oil paintings in his surrealist work, showing some foretell signs of the opening of sinkhole.

An aerial view of the sinkhole was not edited or superimposed by Photoshop.

Absolutely not! That’s real bizarre! It looks so surreal and scary. Perfectly round and deep despite concrete and steel structures… almost as though it was photoshopped.
