Experiment Failed

Having toiled with the old BlackBerry Z10 for the past week, I was beginning to realise how doomed the system was. It came as no surprise that even BlackBerry themselves had given up on the operating system, jumped ship and gone all Android.

At the end the reason was pretty obvious. The operating system was slow and antiquated with poor third party support and bad battery life.

I hope that the new Priv would carry the pluses of the old models. The excellent email service if not the poor software implementation, the best software keyboard on any platform and the slick high quality hardware.

The Priv would be hitting this shores next week and I for once would be eager to try it. If the quality was there, I wouldn't mind buying one. But the rumour has it that it was going to be expensive. Well into the iPhone category.

It would be a tough ask, but I would be willing to try. But for the moment, goodbye Z10. Goodbye BlackBerry OS 10.

Ironically, this entry was typed using the Z10 excellent keyboard ...

The Force at Mid Valley 

Another two weeks before the release of all release coming to the cinema for the year. Star Wars would be back and at the moment the adverts were everywhere. Some clever, some tacky but it seemed to be a celebration coming. Just hope that the movie would not disappoint.

Mid Valley Megamall hosted a life-sized X-Wing at one of the side foyer. It cost money to enter and snap pictures at but the buzz was certainly. There was hardly a queue when I visited since it was mid week right after work. I could imagine that the line would be long at weekends.

Well. Two more weeks and counting...

A Bit Different

Since getting the furnitures over, the living room appeared a bit more congested. And for the first time, I felt like being the Lord of the Manor when I had my breakfast this morning.

There was still plenty of work needed to be done with the apartment but certainly the move had kick started us into gear. Definitely there would be more decorating to come and the place would start to resemble a full house.

Anita had been kept busy still with paperwork and all. She had an appointment with the lawyers earlier as well as a buyer for the old MPV coming over to have a look. Still waiting for an offer though.

Movers Were In

Anita certainly has had a busy day. She had to organise the transfer of some of the stuffs from Cemerlang House and parked some of the heavy furniture at the apartment. That took some doing and tonight it was finally done.

She was having some rest at the moment. Deservedly so. The main living area still pooled pretty bare as we left it so for the upcoming kenduri. We put the new and the old dining tables at the same corner while the corridors were almost filled.

Some of the old kitchen utensils and chinas were also brought over, now needing some cleaning. It had to be done this week as we would be away to Fraser's Hill Next week and our maid going on her Xmas break back home.

No rest again for Anita tomorrow while I would be on call.

Getting Them to Bed

‎We had to move some of the stuffs from our Taman Cemerlang house tomorrow. That house was going to be sold soon and we were just finalising the paperwork. The stuffs need to be moved out, some into storage while the rest into the apartment. Now that where the problem came. We didn't know how to arrange those stuffs.

But before we can do all that, I had to get the boys to bed early as they had to travel with Anita to their grandparents place while Anita do the arrangements for the movers. It was going to be a long day for her.

We wanted to get the moving done within this week as our maid would be back to the Philippines for Xmas from next Monday. We also planned to have a small kenduri sometime later in December for Idlan's khatam. And of course, we would be away to Fraser's Hill next week as well.

Time to get moving!
