Fabulista Says: Goodbye

Tried to write a farewell letter to my current colleagues to day...
"Hey all, I'll be leaving soon and it is sad for me because I have really enjoyed my time here. I will miss a lot of people here that have become good friends. I could mention names but I think (hope) you know who you are.

I'm writing this email from the windowsill outside of my cubical because someone liked me so much that they felt it necessary to grab my chair before it got cold (It's probably an "in memory of" type of thing). But I know they will miss me as much as I will miss them. (There goes my monitor now) I know it's tough to keep in touch (well, my favorite pen is gone now) but (oops, now my power strip is making it's way to another cube) I hope we cross paths again in the future. (I really didn't need that calendar anymore).

I'm leaving because it's time to go back home. (Pardon me, If I drop off before I finish this email, it's because someone took my laptop power supply yesterday and my battery is getting low) Thank you all, for the times you have helped me out when I needed it. (There goes my coffee cup, and stapler). And I sure hope I help each of you in some small way while I was here. (I don't understand why nobody is taking any of my Steeler stuff)
 
I sincerely wish everyone the best and may we meet again.


I hate good bye messa"

Fabulista Techs: On Mobiles

Motorola's sends out its Aura - Remember the last time you purchased a phone because it possessed 700+ individual components, a stainless steel housing or a front plate that takes a fortnight to create?

Motorola is hoping you would start caring about that kind of minutiae right about now. The admittedly gorgeous AURA (previously coined V70) is the world's first handset with a 16-million color circular display, and aside from making / receiving calls with the utmost clarity, it also boasts a Swiss-made main bearing, 62-carat sapphire crystal lens, a 2-megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, microUSB port, quad-band GSM connectivity, a microSD card slot, multimedia player and up to 7.3-hours of talk time (400-hours in standby).

The 4.97-ounce handset is available exclusively from the MOTO STORE for USD1,999.99, with pre-orders shipping out beginning December 4th.

Who's in?


Nokia keeps N-Touch - According to Nokia India’s Devinder Kishore, “We will have lot of touchscreen phones coming up, including an N-series device very soon.” This is some pretty good news in light of the warm reception of the XpressMusic 5800. The N96 model number is already spoken for, so this new one might come to market as an N97 due in early 2009.

We had also seen some pipe dreams of an E-series communicator concept with a touchscreen, so it sounds like it’s on Nokia’s mind these days. The XpressMusic 5800 will likely pave the way and help them work out the kinks of the S60 Touch OS before Nokia starts porting it to new devices. With the advent of the touchscreen 5800 and the N96, some tech over enthusiast have kindly assisted Nokia with a possible proto-type of the new N-Touch.

N-Touche moi?
