I was invited to the launch event by WOM World but due to work commitments and shortage of leave, I am unable to make it to the event at Hong Kong =(

At the event, Nokia Launches Nokia 700, Nokia 701 & Nokia 600 which is powered by Symbian Belle (successor to Symbian Anna).

I can’t seem to find Bluelounge Cableyoyo selling in Singapore, I got mine as part of the Bluelounge Notebook Kit (2 Cableyoyos is included) which I got it at Design Museum Shop for S$31.05.

I did a search on HardwareZone Forums and saw some posts saying they got it from iStudio. I went to a few iStudio shops around town and could not find it. If I happened to find it, I will update this post again with the location of the shop and the price.

Got the Bluelounge CableBox Mini for S$37.35 at the Design Museum Shop which is located at Red Dot Traffic.

Challenger also does sell the Bluelounge CableBox Mini and it is cheaper, for S$34.90 (after member’s discount is S$31.41) but they have only 3 colors available which are Pink, Blue and Yellow. I needed white to match my white Huawei Optical Network Terminal (ONT) and Huawei Residential Gateway (RG). Design Museum Shop does sell all colors of CableBox Mini.

Symbian Anna (Singapore Variant) will be released on 2nd September 2011 and you can download it via Ovi Suite (v3.1.1) on a PC or over-the-air (OTA) directly to your smartphone.

Singapore, 22 August 2011 – Symbian Anna – the latest software update for Symbian smartphones – is available for download from 2nd September 2011 onwards. Symbian Anna significantly enhances the user experience on the Nokia N8, Nokia C7, Nokia C6-01, and Nokia E7. A new user interface, virtual QWERTY keypad in portrait mode, enhanced Nokia Maps, better web browsing and stronger security are just a few of the improvements that people will be able to enjoy. Symbian Anna can be downloaded using the latest version of Ovi Suite (version 3.1.1) on a PC or over-the-air directly to your smartphone.

Got the Bluelounge POP from DG LifeStyle Shop located at VivoCity for S$18. The service from that shop is getting from bad to worst. If not because the Bluelounge POP is not sold elsewhere in Singapore, I would not be bothered getting from that shop.

The Bluelounge POP is essentially a cable winder that makes use of suction cup to attached itself to the back of your gadget as long as the surface at the back is smooth. Once it is attached, you can wind the wires of your headphone around it.

Got the Bluelounge CableDrop from Challenger at Funan for S$16.90 (after member’s discount is S$15.21). I left 1 more, Bluelounge Cableyoyo to complete my collection for Bluelounge cable management!

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with 3G (16GB) is now available in Singapore retailing for S$848 without contract.

Singapore, 19 August 2011 – Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, the global leader in Android mobile devices, has launched its sales of GALAXY Tab 10.1 in Singapore.

Just only last month HP announced the availability of TouchPad in Singapore (16GB: S$699) and today, they announced they are killing WebOS. Like WTF?

I wonder will they sell those existing TouchPads at a discount since it has EOLed, I don’t mind getting a 16GB one for less than S$200.

I always wanted to get a Logitech Harmony Remotes for my television and media player, but they are pretty expensive, finally they announced something more affordable which is the Logitech Harmony 200. It will be available in Singapore by early September 2011 for a recommended retail price of S$39. Hopefully just in time for Comex 2011 which is happening from 1st to 4th September 2011 at Suntect City.

I just checked the Harmony’s Supported Devices page and it supports my room television setup!
