Finally! I did it, now I can post anything on the go. This is one of the first things that I want to do when we were in wordpress.com but due to the restrictions we couldn’t. But now after moving to Godaddy (thanks 9K2HN for the help!) it’s possible! but there is one thing I want get rid of, my signature which will show that I’m sending using BB service! Its annoying.. Does anyone know how to stop it from appearing?!

Today i was checking Apple store, both the 8GB and 16GB models are “Currently Unavailable”. There’s no indication of whether this is merely a case of stock mis-management or a sign that a new iPhone is fast approaching. Hope this is a new indication of the new 3G iPhone Bs still im in love with my Curve

Finally my Blackberry 8320 arrived! I received it today from USWS (BTW They SUCK! from the time they moved to their new location everything got messed up!) Before i got it, I went to Zain and subscribed with them, It costs KD14 for local usage with 1 GB download, if you exceed it you’ll be charged 2 fils for each MegaByte, which means every GB will cost you KD2). The international package is 28kd a month.

Whats comes in the box:
- Blackberry 8320.
- USB cable.
- Charger.
- Hands free.
- CD & manuals.

I ordered a charging pod which looks so sexy! Its coated with chrome, I really love it!
Just for the record, I bought mine for only KD125 and ZAIN are selling the older model of this BB the one without wifi for KD238 and its out of stock now. What a rip off! I’ve also installed the arabic fonts and now I’m able to read Arabic messages and websites.
over all i’m giving it 4.5/5 (due to its perfect functions!). It keeps you busy all the time

Amazon today introduced TextBuyIt, a new service that lets you use text messages to find and buy products sold on Amazon.com. Simply send a text message to “AMAZON” (262966) with the name of the product, search term or a UPC or ISBN code, and Amazon replies with the product or products that match the search, along with prices. To buy an item, customers simply reply to the text message by entering the unique single digit number next to the item they want. Customers will then receive a short phone call from Amazon with the final details of their order and asking them to confirm or cancel the purchase.When customers choose to purchase something for the first time using TextBuyIt, they will be asked for their e-mail address and shipping ZIP code they use for their Amazon.com account. With this information, Amazon uses customers’ default settings for payment method, shipping address and shipping speed, including 2-Day shipping for Amazon Prime members. (I’m Still unsure whether international orders are accepted or not).

Since i got married my internet shopping habbit increased by 400%. Me and my wife order from everything from socks to earrings! Kel shay kel shay! Walah walahnaa 3alla ghorfat el tabdeeel bel ma7alat! So we faced a problem in the past 1.5 year that whenever any site asks us to contact them by phone (and most of them provice 1-800-xxx-xxxx contact number) the problem with these numbers is that you can’t call them from outside the US. So the ONLY solution is Skype, Yes from skype you can call 1-800 even if you are out side the US.

So i went directly to Amazon and ordered Linksys iPhone.

Whats in the Box:
- Base station.
- iPhone head set.
- 2 chargers “1 for the head set and one for base station”.
- Ethernet cable.
- Manual.
- Head set battery.
Now let me go through their Pros and Cons:
Pros.
- It capable of holding the land line and Skype simultaneously.
- The head set base is separated from the base station.
- NOW i can call Apple and Amazon by simple touches! “walla fashla takhayelaw aloo gowa amazon!!!”
.
Cons.
- Low quality build material.
- The two chargers designed for the US electricity, So you need an adapter to run them in Kuwait.
Final Score 3 out 5 “Due to low build quality & lack of multi voltage chargers.
Thanks to the biggest skype fan, 9K2HN, for telling me about it.

I’m sick again. Not more than a month ago I was sick with inflamed tonsils (lowaz), fever and a flu. and now, its all back again with a vengeance.
I’m not answering my phone since yesterday coz i’m having difficulty speaking. so I’ve been sending sms’s after each miscall saying “i can’t talk coz i’m sick and my tonsils (bal3eemy warma) are inflamed at the moment. we talk later”
As weird as it may sound, i find whoever calls me after reading that sms is weirder! I mean, I told you I can’t answer! why are you calling me back?? what should I do to get through to you
I know! I should either come after you (when I get better inshallah) and hunt you down OR I pray that a wall falls and You just happen to be under it.

Yesterday Ali sent me these pictures and it shows that Al-Oula are now offering us the opportunity to look for and buy mobiles while we’re filling up our cars. Just like Mark said, I too hope to see mini markets in Al-Oula stations soon.

Thank you Ali.

So go ahead, send photos, pictures or video clips to your friends and relatives from your phone to your hearts content. This onetime offer is only till March 15th so go ahead and enjoy the Zain MMS experience.”

It will be held in Barcelona, from the 11th to the 14th of February 2008. If u dont know what 3GSM is, Then its basically and mainly a mobile-industry show where all the main brands show off their new mobiles and technologies, such like Nokia, Sony Ericsson.. ect. So if ur thinking of buying a new mobile, just wait a couple of days to see if ur interested in the new phones, and if not then you can go ahead and purchased ur lame mobile

A week ago i upgraded my subscription to 7.2 Mbps and ive noticed that my download rate doesnt exceed 50kb/s with my Merlin XU870, turned out that my card just support up to 3.6Mbps. So i went to Zain branch yesterday and bought the Zain router.

Whats in the box:
- Zain Router.
- Charger.
- Ethernet cable.
- USB cable.
- Manual.

You can see it above its pretty small.

Now it gives me around 130 kb/s when downloading, i know its still not that fast for “7.2 mbps” bs emkafeny esara7aaa
And for the price it cost me KD100.
