This year’s prices are quite a bit higher, due to the fluctuation in exchange rates. It is however, interesting to note that the iPhone 5c is only retailing at $318 at the lite plan (the plan most Singaporeans will pick), while the iPhone 5s is […]

The overhyped “competitor” that never was
Posted June 7th, 2013 by Ryu at 10:16 pm in Samsung. 0 CommentsI usually try not to write much about non-Apple news here, but this is a classic “I told you so” scenario. Upon earlier reports that the Samsung flagship phone, the Galaxy S4, is not selling too well in local (and many foreign) markets, today we have Wall Street finally telling us exactly that. Samsung’s stock […]

Posted June 3rd, 2013 by Ryu at 8:34 am in Uncategorized. 1 CommentHell man, I hope I don’t get a cease and desist for this. Got really sick of the default “universe/galaxy”-style wallpapers introduced since Leopard, and extracted some old wallpapers from pre-Leopard Mac OS Xes. Am currently rocking this setup. Here are all the default Aqua Blue and Aqua Graphite Mac OS X wallpapers from the […]

My podcast (listening) journey, 2013 edition
Posted June 1st, 2013 by Ryu at 2:32 pm in Editorial and Podcasts. 0 CommentsChanged a few things around the site. Contemplated going with a completely new theme, but decided that the effort will not be worth my time, especially as I really like the current layout. Quite some time back, I wrote about how I discovered 5by5 studios, and how switching to it (from the deteriorating TWiT network) […]
There is no longer a Mac community in Singapore
Posted June 1st, 2013 by Ryu at 2:14 pm in MUGS. 2 CommentsAnd it shows. The grand total attendance, of the Mac User Group Singapore (MUGS) meet-up recently, is ONE. That is despite MUGS having over 200 members, and having the event details casted out on every form of social media I could think of. This is enough reason for me to tell myself to just move […]
Colours on the upcoming iPhone 5S? A look at Apple’s current iPhone strategy
Posted May 27th, 2013 by Ryu at 2:10 am in iPhone 4S, iPhone 5S and iPhone 6. 1 CommentFirst and foremost, I am willing to believe, that the news of the coloured iPhone 5S/6 this year is real – even before the recent spat of reports, a little bird from the Far East gave me the heads-up on the coloured iPhones. The same sweet chirpy told me about production trial runs of metallic […]
