After the launching of the 3S center for CSL, we were then whiskered away to a cafe in Megamall Pinang itself and it’s called Life.

Upon entering the cafe, drinks were already ready and the food slowly rolled out.

As we were enjoying the food, the CSL employees came by and passed us some demo units to play around.

We were shown their new line up which consisted of CSL phones decorated with Swarovski!

Probably i shouldn’t end the sentence before this with an exclamation mark as i have no desire for blings let alone jewelry, LOL. Nevertheless, it was refreshing to see a bunch of phones with a different physical outlook rather than the usual sore-eyed candybar phone in the market.

Before i go in any further, in general all 4 phones have similar key features like:

- dual sim

- apps for social media, like twitter, facebook, messengers

-microSD card expansion.

The first model that came to my table was the Princess 9200 and the first thing you would realized how the Swarovski is blinging all the where. The girls around me immediately went, “woooooooo, so the bling and nice box!”

Yeah the phone comes in this cool looking box that girls could use to store their extra make up set, etc.

Equipped with:

- dual sim

- BB Messenger

- Push Mail

- Opera Mini

- Facebook/Twitter/ Skype

Menstrual calendar (it’s a women’s phone after all)

- supports GPRS /WAP / MMS /EDGE

- 2.0 Megapixels camera

Now now, 2.0megapixels might be little for some of you out there but this is why CSL had 4 different phones for this series. Different phones have a different target group.Saying that, the price of this phone is RM299. Talk about affordability.

We then were given Sophie which was primarily aimed to those who would love to own a touch screen CSL Phone. Sophie G16, immediately caught the attention of Angeline and Emily for some reason (probably because of the phones that they are using which i will not mention here).

Equipped with the same features as the Princess model, there are some added features on Sophie such as:

- WiFi connectivity

- 3.2 Megapixels camera

All that for a mere RM399.

So if you always wanted a phone with touch functions and decorated with Swarovski crystals, Sophie would be ideal for you.

The final 2 phones of the Swarovski line up by CSL were rather briefly played around with as the girls just wouldn’t allow me to do so.

CSL Emma DS900, would be the typical candybar phone that most people love using.

Identical features as the Princess model except that the screen is slightly smaller, 2.2″. Princess has a 2.4″ screen.

CSL Emma DS900 is priced at RM299.

Finally the one that swivels around and acts as a mirror for the ladies …

CSL SHE 9300.

Probably now you get what i meant by Swivel and it becomes a mirror.

Identical features to the Princess model except for one thing …. it has a mirror lol.

Priced at RM399.

The ladies , Emily and Angeline with the Swarovski decorated CSL phones.

So what was there for me or for the guys?

CSL Mi 350.

It’s the 1st Dual Sim Android phone and it’s equipped with a 5 megapixels camera, a 3.5″ LCD screen as well as WiFi Connectivity.

Yes it supports 3G connection but only the 1st sim card. The 2nd sim card will be on the standard GSM quad bands and GPRS, which i think is good enough. Wouldn’t make sense to have both on 3G as usually the 2nd sim would be for calls only.

One thing about the screen is that it’s capacitive and it’s smooth as butter when i had the chance to push the icons or pages around.

It has a built in memory of 512MB ROM and 512MB RAM, expandable on the MicroSD card. GPS and AGPS comes standard.

Standby time on 3G connection would be up to 380 hours and talk time is up to 140 hours. Of course if you are not on 3G it would have a better standby and talk time.

Finally, i know you might be wondering which version of android is it on. It’s 2.2.

So with all that packed in a phone by CSL called the Switch Dual Mi350, how much do you think it is?

Nope you are wrong (that’s if you really don’t know and is honestly guessing).

RM699.

Now you can own and android phone for less than Rm700. How’s that

With the growing appetite of owning a Smart Phone, let alone a normal handphone, brands these days are differentiated by 1 common question where a customer will ask before purchasing …

“Eh warranty how ar? and where is the service center?”.

2 weeks ago i was invited to the official launch of CSL’s 3S Center which is located at Megamall Penang and boy oh boy the crowd that was already there was ridiculous.

Frankly i was clueless on what was the agenda on that day and i only knew that the center was opening. Little did i know that, there were also selling certain CSL models at a special price. This ultimately made a line right in front of the CSL 3S Store.

The first person in line which his proud new toy/gadget/phone, depending how you see it.

Proudly making his order and patiently awaits for the crew to key in his details.

The 3S center had a wide range of CSL phones on demo where customers had the chance to use as well feel the phone before purchasing. This is key in any businesses, demo units.

This was one funny clown. He took random people’s Rm 1 and changed it to RM50.

Yeap he actually allowed them to keep the RM 50!

I wonder where can i find him lol

One ….. two …… threeeeee.

All the top people which are involved in CSL as well as the 3S Center were there to officially launch the outlet.

So if you have any inquiry regarding CSL devices, look no further and head over to Megamall Penang. In case Megamall Penang doesn’t ring a bell in your head, the map below should help you locate it

The nearest casino for me would be at least 4 hours away from Penang which is Genting Highlands or 8 hours away which is in Singapore. Nevertheless, once in a while a trip would be planned to experience the casino thrills that are usually seen on the televisions.

The idea of driving or even taking a bus to experience such thrills is definitely tiring especially on the weekends. So what happens if you can make do with traveling but still have the same thrills?

All that from a click of your finger.

Have you checked out the new method of booking your flight tickets for Malaysia Airlines? If you haven’t heard already, head over to …

http://flymas.mobi

Upon visiting the site, you would realize that it’s optimized for mobile phones especially iphones, androids and other touch screen devices like Nokia 5800, etc.

-

-

-

The interface is actually straight forward and you can start off immediately by selecting ‘Book Flight’. You will be directed to the next page where you would choose your destination and travel dates. One thing I realized is that the travel dates are kinda limited. I am not sure if they will extend it to later dates but the current ones are still good enough for me. In my case here, I was checking out the price to fly to Shanghai.

-

-

I like how information is displayed, short and to the point. Simply select the time of your outbound flight and followed by the inbound flight.

-

-

-

Then the next page will show a summary of what you have selected including the total ticket price while includes the tax and fees. Once you are done filling up the form to purchase, you would need to enter your credit card details for payment.

… and you are DONE !

-

-

-

-

Back to the main page, I would suggest you to have a quick glance at Deals and Offers, just to be double or even triple sure that you are not missing out any great offers. Currently there are Christmas offers.

-

For convenience sake, there’s also ‘Flight Status’, ‘Baggage Tracer’ and more importantly in my case “Check In”. I generally hate queuing up just to get my boarding pass though I have no luggage to check in. So having this feature helps me eliminate one step.

-

-

To make it easier for me to access FlyMas.Mobi, I created a homescreen shortcut for easier access. If you are on the iPhone/iPod Touch, simply hit the plus button at the bottom of the screen when you are at the main page of flymas.mobi …

… and voila.

-

-

Comparing to AirAsia’s mobile portal, it simply shows why FlyMas is easier to navigate and more user friendly. I have flown with both airlines and I can honestly tell you that AirAsia’s mobile portal is at times a pain in the neck. FlyMas.mobi seems to have a lot of potential especially with touch screen phone users on the rise.

-

-

-

I am sure some of you must be wondering what about non-touch screen users, well I am happy to say that on my e71, FlyMas.Mobi is as user-friendly as how you would use on a touchscreen phone.

So why wait, head over and get your flight tickets !

-

-

flymas.mobi – as easy as 1, 2, 3 !

I have seen this shirt whenever i passed Ogawa and i always joked with Dolphin, if i can only get one of those shirt, LOL. Here PinkPau too got into the frenzy and tried one out at the Ogawa Outlet.

Anyway how many of you have tried a massaging chair, besides the ones at the airport ? I for one never trusted sitting on one especially after feeling my bones being ripped off by the el-cheopos in the airport when i tried a few years back. So when Ogawa had a blogger session a couple of weeks ago, i had the chance to try out their products. You definitely get for what you pay for.

For starters you don’t feel like you are sitting on a chair filled with sharp edges.

As we were ushered to the Ogawa outlet in Pavillion, RedMummy and Nicole got on to the Smart Mate. It as visible that the 2 ladies were enjoying their massage thru out the short session. Imagine having worked in those high heels the whole day and the next thing you know you have your Smart Mate gently massaging those feet

The guys too tried out and i overheard some of them saying, “Woahhh having this and watching football would be damn good”. LMAO.

There were basically 2 models that were highlighted to us. One is the Smart Mate and the other was the SmartAire.

SmartAire was slightly different looking from the rest. It looks highly sophisticated from the way it looks to the way it functions. In this case, Huay Bin and Nicole were trying out before the SmartAire positioned itself for Zero Gravity.

So what’s Zero Gravity about ?

Inspired by Nasa’s space shuttle seats, the Zero Gravity is the ergonomically correct resting position which removes the pressure of gravity on the spine to near to near zero.

By reclining with feet higher than the heart, with a torso to leg angle of 126 degrees -/+ 7, astronauts are able to safely distribute the pressure of takeoff across their bodies. This Zero Gravity angle helps to maintain the proper S-curve alignment of the spine, in which pressure is most evenly distributed. At Zero Gravity, the spine is able to relax, muscle tension is relieved and circulation is improved.

*The facts above are credited to the findings of NASA doctors and scientists. Zero Gravity refers to the position assumed by the massage chair when activated. The Zero Gravity angle refers to the position when the torso is properly angled, with the thighs and lower legs positioned above the heart.

This is the one of the main features of the SmartAire.

Wingz experiencing zero gravity Everyone who tried SmartAire did say it was definitely something different.

Wingz shows why you should try Zero Gravity, hahahaha. PinkPau, Nicole were trying to get him to pose for the camera and Wingz suddenly gave the peace sign, HAHAHAHA.

As the rest of us waited for our turn with SmartAire and SmartMate, we tried other Ogawa products.

Lady Gaga ? PinkPau trying out EyeTune

Suddenly more Lady Gagas appeared, LMAO

Cindy, Lady Gaga-ing.

Actually SmartAire and SmarMate reminded me of a certain chair at home where my dad would sit and me and my three siblings would massage his hands and legs. Yes manually massage, lol and the chair is just a normal chair. We used to do this everyday but as one  by one left the ‘bird’s nest’, my dad was only left with my youngest brother. So probably getting him a SmartAire would be ideal for his upcoming birthday

To know more about SmartMate and SmartAire, do drop by at any Ogawa Outlets or simply click at Ogawa World

Just when i thought the blog advertising war will only be between Nuffnang and Advertlets, GrabMyAds came along and today i found out there’s a fourth one, Nufflets.com. I know i am considered quite slow in getting the news but nevertheless, better late than never. If you have time to spare, hop over to ShadowFox’s entry on Nufflets. It was really interesting reading how Nuffnang and Advertlets actually built their own AD server engines and Nufflets on the other hand, got themselves a licensed one.

Having Nufflets join the blog advertising war makes the whole competition healthy. Just like football or F1, you wouldn’t want to see one or two teams dominating the field.

While exploring Nufflets.com, i found out that Nabil Feisal is the co-founder. Not that i know him personally but i remembered many moons back when i wrote a small complain on Advertlets, the person who replied my mail was Nabil Feisal himself

Now with a new player in the field, all i can say is welcome and this would be great for bloggers

Happy blogging !

P/S: After months of using both Nuffnang and Advertlets, i decided to drop Advertlets and stick with Nuffnang. Self preference
