Comex IT fair coverage, from launches and store openings to fairground hauls.
XMI, the Singapore company behind the award-winning X-mini Capsule Speaker, has unveiled its latest and largest speaker, the X-mini CLEAR, a custom 2.1 audio system. It launches in November 2014 for S$299, with a special pre-order price.
The Asus RT-AC87U is the world's first AC2400-class dual-band 802.11ac wireless router with a four-by-four antenna configuration, and the first to use multi-user MIMO. It delivers 1.7334Gbit/s on 5GHz and 600Mbit/s on 2.4GHz, for a combined 2.334Gbit/s.
I got the Logitech Harmony 300 for S$49 at Comex 2011 last week. It's a universal remote that controls up to four devices, such as your TV, cable box, Xbox 360, and media player. I'd planned on the Harmony 200.
I bought the D-Link DNS-320 (S$109) and two Western Digital 3.5-inch Caviar Black 1TB drives at S$115 each, at Comex 2011. Despite a bad experience with the DNS-323, I went D-Link again, since this is for my mom's office.
At HP's Booth 8428 Direct Counter, the 16GB and 32GB HP TouchPads sell for S$118 and S$188 respectively, before GST, during the first two days of Comex 2011, 1st to 2nd September. Just 100 units of each are available daily.
Here are the IT fair dates in Singapore for 2009: IT Show in March, PC Show in June, Comex in September and Sitex in November, all held at Suntec City. Handy for planning gadget purchases around the year.
Comex 2008 ran at Suntec City Convention Centre from 28th to 31st August. I hooted plenty, including Canon colour and black ink for my mom's MX700 printer, plus a D-Link DNS-323 and a Wall-E pickup for myself.
It's been a while since I blogged about my personal life, and I haven't watched a movie in over a month; my last was The Dark Knight in KL. I've also just finished my first week of school.
