Tools and toys that companied my life and my work:

Canon PS S3-IS

Canon PS S3 IS

I’m always a Canon fans, ever since I owned a classic EOS-300 bought by my Dad some years ago. Since then, my choose is always circling around this Japanese brand. S3 is by far my all time favorite. 6 MP semi SLR camera, light, and compact, equipped with 12x optical zoom - image stabilized lens, and capable of super macro (zero distance macro). Taking a picture has never been so easy with this camera, wide, macro, tele, you name it. I wont recommend this camera for sport or high speed photography, but for other purposes, this is definitely my pick. For a tag price of around USD250, this camera is leading choice for everyone.

Laptop

BenQ S41

I don’t have any fav brands for a laptop. For the last 6 years or so I’ve tried many types of Laptop, from the heavy 3kg Asus, medium Acer and, the latest one BenQ Joybook S41. S41 is definitely fits my needs. Light (2kg), and powerful (Centrino Core 2), it can be used for every day to needs. Editing picture, listening to music, playing DVD and my biggest hobby playing PC games, thats because this laptop is installed with Nvidia power 8600mx graphic chips, more powerful than your average working PC and much more powerful than embedded graphic chip used by any other laptops. For about USD1200 this laptop is worth to try.

Mobile Phone

Samsung SGH Z720

Of every mobile that I ever owned, I love my Z720 the most. Its dark purple (close to black) exterior is very elegant, it’s slim design added a sense of luxury to it, and the smooth sliding mechanism complete the overall perfection of its physical appearances. But what I loved the most from this mobile is its technological trait. Equipped with 3MP camera, MP3 player the delicious 3.5 HSDPA connection, makes this mobile an ultimate choice for internet lovers like me. Bundled with a USB cable, I can connect to the internet pretty much anytime and anywhere, wither browse the net directly from my mobile, or (my fav) connect it to my laptop and functioned as a modem. It has a huge, nice and crystal clear display, and I can open Office and PDF files conevienntly at anytime. Provided that I have unlimited bandwidth, I can connect to my Google or Yahoo email anytime.
