up the firmware....

since the busy times began, i didnt have much chance to play around with the sony ps3 and the rest of the video system...... but last night i told myself i MUST update the firmware, which i did .... but that was only after i caught the european grand prix on tv.....

this afternoon i was able to make my way out on time and in the evening squeezed a little bit of time to play one blueray disc.... CASINO ROYALE.....

between the 2 craig bond movies, i like casino royale over the quantum of solace......

and that one name of the bad guy..... Le Chiffre and his blood-tearing eye...... is already a classic...... maybe we all are fans of poker deep inside.....

super wet wednesday..........

there was no post yesterday as i decided to take a break......... hehe.... sometimes there were multiple postings for one day so why not take a rest........... for me and for you.....

anyway i was trying to finish up some work at the office .....

another storm is brewing and lashing right now in the eastern part of singapore......... i suspect the whole island is raining but i cant confirm this......

football rants............

can u believe this..............? alex ferguson was making noises about ronaldo being targeted by referees ????? surely he was happy when ronaldo clearly dived and won a few penalties....... so why not make noises then but now........?

a player that dives should live and die by the DIVE........ good if he wins a penalty...... in the event he gets booked for diving, well that's part and parcel for diving ...... u win some u lose some..............

BD rant.......

amazon is offering, for a limited time and for limited titles, a one-for-one promotion............ get it while u can........ :)

and i hope sony can update ps3 to output uncompressed digital audio in bitstream format soon............. haha.....

lately the release of samsung BD-S1400 has added excitement into the local market...... and the offers at SITEX were very attractive.......... too bad i bought my ps3 a few weeks earlier.....

well, that's the price to pay for being an early adoptor..........

good news for BD....and saturday jalan jalan

was at audio house this evening.......the samsung BD-P1000 is now selling at S$799....

also saw a sharp BD player......hope to see more choices soon and looking forward to the hifi show in mid nov....

at 799, the samsung player is quite close to the price of a sony ps3....

prior to that, visited the omega speedmaster 50th anniversary exhibition held at ngee ann city civic plaza...........shd be interesting for omega speedie fans but i found it ok only........there were many speedmaster watches displayed, from the 50s, 60s and so on......

heard the ym2 is in town so went over to paragon.... saw both the YG and WG yachtmaster 2 at dickson......did not manage to see the price tags though......they also have blue wave dial DD, which is nice....

the milgauss is already in HK........so it in SG yet...??.....so far no news le
