Been a while since I ranted on Mobile Phones but wait, I saw a whole page advertisement at the back of Straits Times main paper today by Nokia advertising three products that is from Nokia’s branch of “music phones” with their music editions of phones (the other branch being the “internet edition” phones): the N70 Music Edition, N73 Music Edition and N91 8GB.

Nokia seem to be liking to bundle “special editions” of their phones these days. Among all these, I’d say N70 Music Edition is probably not worth getting. N73 is good for its camera while N91 is good for its Wi-Fi and the huge 8GB hard drive. But alas, I think it would be better off getting N95 next time when it’s released for the same price.

Starhub has unveiled its 100 mbps broadband service yesterday, albeit at a pretty bad time, but nonetheless being the first provider to bring 100 mbps to consumers in Singapore. They’ve also upgraded their existing customers speed.

I’ve been using Singnet ever since I’ve started getting an internet connection. I wonder why I still stuck with them even after so much has happened. They ought to learn a few things from their rivals. Instead of overpricing their subscriptions and coming up with new connections that are faster and cheaper , why not take the starhub route and upgrade existing customers’ speed? Imagine how many happy customers that would make! Or are they only concerned about their profits? Look around any local forums and you can see a lot of Singnet users complaining.

In other news, someone has hacked his way Nokia Lifeblog to enable for Wordpress. Since I haven’t exactly found any mobile blogging application to my tastes, I guess I will try this out for a while.

P.S.: I was typing this post when my internet connection went down again and I couldn’t access the site. For those of you who have the same problem, proxy servers will save your life.
