YES, finally after 3 years Blizzard announced Starcraft 2 at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational in Seoul, South Korea on 19th may 2007, we can finally see it in stores on the 27th July 2010!

Starcraft II will consist of 3 games, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty (Terran Missions), StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm (Zerg Missions) and Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void (Protoss Missions), this is Blizzard way of milking more money from us. But regardless, I am getting all 3! Now I am left undecided whether to get the Mac version or the Windows version.

Received my copy of Super Street Fighter IV thanks to Ian from Microsoft!

Press Release:

It seems that SingTel have already begun preparing MicroSIM for users. Accordingly to the user “MorpheusV” who posted in this thread, Looks like SingTel has started saling MicroSIM, states that when he sign up for SingTel’s 7.2Mbps 2 years contract, it comes with a Huawei E5832 and the sales person told him that the SIM card of the plan would be MicroSIM.

Did a mini interview by Kenny Chee of My Paper (我报) regarding EpiCentre taking pre-order for iPad. I have negative views on this as EpiCentre did not do a great job last year when they handle the pre-order for iPhone 3GS and end up those who pre-order with them got it later than SingTel customers. It will be fine if you pre-order the iPad WiFi version but for the iPad 3G + WiFi version, there might be a chance that it will be given to telecos first.

my paper (我报) is Singapore’s first free chinese newspaper, launched on 1 June 2006, is designed for bilingual, young adults aged 20-40, who have been exposed to Western and Chinese cultures and want their voices to be heard.

It is said that the Apple next generation iPhone aka “iPhone HD” was lost/dropped in a bar by Grey Powell, who is an Apple Software Engineer working on the iPhone Baseband Software. The iPhone was later found by someone else. Gizmodo rumored to have paid US$5,000 for the prototype and did a dissect of it. The iPhone is not bootable because Apple remotely killed the phone assuming immediately the phone was reported lost by its employee. No I wonder how many heads is going to roll.

I have mirrored the pictures from Gizmodo into Flicker:

Finally! Their Content Aware Fill is amazing!

BTW, Adobe Creative Suite 4 was announced on the 23rd September 2008.

Sorry for the late news, but when I was in Hong Kong, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 was launched in Singapore and SingTel customers are the first one to get it. I hope they will bring in iPad next =D

The RRP for the Xperia X10 is S$1,088 (without contract).
