			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meizu MiniOne M8 has a long history (in Internet World). It&#8217;s debut has caused an uproar over the world due to the unshameful copying of iPhone Crown Fish background and many similar icons. <a href="http://techielobang.com/blog/2008/11/05/meizu-minione-m8-is-ready-to-launch-in-end-november/" target="_blank">Read here for the story if you like</a>. Moving ahead, it is almost the end-November that Meizu&#8217;s CEO Jack Wong promised that it will be released. As I watch over the video, I noticed that Meizu M8 has quite successfully removed itself from the image of iPhone. In fact, if their innovation continues, I bet this Meizu M8 will be better than iPhone.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally, the cat is out of the bag. iPhone owners can rejoice to the news that their sparkling iPhone can finally send MMS.

<p><span id="more-267"></span></p>
<p>BTW, this is not a free software. You will need to purchase it. Below is the press release.</p>

<p>However, in my opinion, if the application can be done for the Swedish market, it can be done for all markets.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one of the weirdest phone that I come across. It has a two fold hinges that can open up the phone with 3 full screen. You will get the usual touch screen, the keyboard and the unusual screen that has some of the keys that is separated from the keyboard. BTW, it is medical phone that has a hotline button to activate emergency call numbers and it has also medical guide to aid a person to perform medical help immediately.</p>

<p>Watch the video after the break.</p>
<p><span id="more-250"></span></p>
<p>The phone will go to Thailand (pretty soon) and then UK (March/April 2009). The price is not cheap at about US$1000. Here&#8217;s another two more shot of the phone.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I seriously thinks that the designer of this battle uniform is a Halo fan. Look at their similarity. South Korea is developing new uniform and weapon for the new generation warfare.</p>
<p>In fact the weapon is already ready and it looks awesome. Firing 5.56mm calibre rounds and 20mm grenades from the same trigger. No need to move your arm to the next trigger For those who had handled such weapons, you should know how much time can be saved.</p>
<p><a href="http://techielobang.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/scifi2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-246" title="scifi2" src="http://techielobang.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/scifi2.jpg" alt="" width="460" height="272" /></a></p>
<p>Video after the break.</p>
<p><span id="more-245"></span></p>
<p>So, what do we have on the uniform. It has a multifunction bullet proof helmet with video transmitter, GPS display and voice recognition, a backpack with command/control and Friendly or foe identification systems. A BDU that protects you from nuclear, biological and chemical attacks.</p>
<p>The next thing is the rifle, XK11. It is very Halo-like and it is about 6.2 kg that has thermal imaging capability and very durable in different condition. Want to know more about this weapon? Watch the video below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear all,</p>
<p>I am terribly sorry that the site was down for a day due to some payment issue with the Host. It was purely a simple yet I took 24hrs to solve kind of issue.</p>
<p><span id="more-243"></span></p>
<p>BTW, TechieLobang is already ONE year old. Some of you may wonder why only so few posts for one year. The (painful) reason is because I had been suspended too many times due to CPU spiking. Finally, after some painful decision and to ease my load, I decided to refresh. It took me great pain to build up more than 1000 posts and to be removed overnight.</p>
<p>However, I promised that TechieLobang will be around for a long while. And I will try to focus more on local Singapore news.</p>
<p>I urge you to register yourself at the <a href="http://www.techielobang.com" target="_blank">this page</a> to get the latest information even before I post here. I hate spammers. I promised I will not send you email every time (even if you wanted to :)). I will only send you if I have some lobang (good stuffs) to share.</p>
<p>In recipocal, if you have interesting good techie news that wish to share (or you wish some information that TechieLobang should have, please <a href="mailto:joe@techielobang.com" target="_blank">email me</a>. Or you can use a very easy way to track me. That&#8217;s twitter.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/joeteh" target="_blank">http://www.twitter.com/joeteh</a></p>
<p>FYI. Every single post will be sent to twitter. So, get updated easily!!</p>
<p>OK. Enough of me talking.</p>
<p>I hope to see you inside</p>
