I have just finished my 80-pages thesis, done with the printing and submitted  2 weeks ago..

The printing part was quite a hassle as I had to print 5 books which means approximately more than 400-pages, plus the table of contents and whats not..

My thesis contained colour pages in about half of a book and to print out some good quality colour pages is quite a hassle with normal home printer..

With the HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series B110, I can print lab-quality photos, everyday documents and web content on the fly, without using a PC!

I have actually thought about this wireless concept for a printer, not sure if it’s available in the market..Now I know it does..

With the limited space I have in my room, now I can print from anywhere, anytime, with any device..

Now I can print with the printer in another room by using HP ePrint..It can be shared from multiple PCs by using integrated wireless connection..

A simple one-touch button and it’s ready to print wirelessly even directly from a smartphone, using HP mobile printing apps..

With HP ePrint and integrated wireless combined with affordable individual inks I can easily produce impressive photos anytime anywhere! :D

Even without a PC, I can print from the web using the HP TouchSmart frame..Just use the colour display with an HP TouchSmart frame to print photos and make copies, scans and photo reprints..

It fits the tagline “If you can email it, you can print it” very much..

With ENERGY STAR qualified, it saves energy and conserve paper by easily printing multiple pages on both sides of a sheet of paper in one go, unlike any old conventional home printer..

HP is also introducing its new HP Ink Advantage System where one can print high-quality documents with ultra low-cost, high-capacity Original HP Inks. Enjoy up to 600 pages per black cartridge, for only RM27..

It’s ultra low-cost printing nowadays..No more expensive cartridge for your printer..

Blackberry Torch 9800 Maxis10 Review – Overview

Posted on by

Time flies and it’s been 2 weeks since I got the Blackberry Torch 9800 under the Maxis10 programme and my review will come to an end with this post of an overview of the BB Torch 9800..

I’m going to do a slight comparison with iPhone, not technically but how I choose my smartphones, and some other not-so-big technical glitch about this BB Torch 9800..

First of all, let’s go to the size of it..


*Taken from Blackberry.com*

Height (closed) – 4.37 in / 111 mm
Height (open) – 5.83 in / 148 mm
Width – 2.44 in / 62 mm
Depth – 0.57 in / 14.6 mm
Weight – 5.68 oz / 161.1g

Well save your time from the measuring tape or ruler..The size of BB Torch 9800 when it’s closed is almost the same size as Bold2, just slightly longer by about 1-2 mm..

Although it’s a slider phone, the thickness is just exactly the same as Bold2..If you have no problem with Bold2, you got no problem with Torch 9800 at all..

The weight feels slightly heavier than Bold2 due to its solid casing on the slider..

When it comes to the keypad, it’s quite flattened as compared to Bold and Curve..One need some time to get used to it and I’ve achieved that in about 2 days..


*Flat keypad body*

Not to mention it might be a bit small for people with big thumbs..

After showing you the camera quality, here I’m going to show you the new operating system (OS) which is integrated into the Blackberry Torch 9800, the BlackBerry OS 6..

There are 5 significant new features that I can really see in this OS 6, which are..

- Home screen personalization
- Social feed
- New media player
- Faster and richer web-browsing with tabbed browsing
- Universal/Global search

I’ve recorded a video to show you the all-new experience of the OS 6 but I’m really sorry for the second-half of the video..

The focus-point was out of focus when I shot that video hence the blurry screen on the Torch 9800..

While I’m trying to shoot a better video for future improvement, please bear with this video first and here we go..
