yup. been using the retail version for quite some time now.

roughly 2-3 weeks.

no and yes.
i cant do phone impressions

they will also get the exclusive rights to tab 10.1 for 45 days.

i love that black air cond unit . here only have white air cond units

the htc sensation is truly a spectacular phone. very smooth indeed. solidly built with sturdy grip.
there is a slight delay in some applications but i'm sure that can be rectified easily. i have always stressed back to htc that the volume is of great importance. time and time again, its like cohesive repetition. i can only hope that this time they will listen.

Since it is nearing target date, i can provide you my short summarized version of the sgs2.




*edit, forgot to quote my own citation.

htc taiwan sent me another proto few days back. it is a barebone unit with zero defects. i'm yet to receive their spec sheets and the job sheet from them. once i receive the job sheet, it usually takes 14 days for me to clear a report for them. unfortunately this cannot be the case as labour day also falls on 2nd of may as a holiday. if i'm not mistaken 17th is also a holiday. wesak day i think.

so the earliest i can provide you hints is when i clear the job sheet. once i'm done with the job sheet, they will provide me a memorandum of understanding. inside the memorandum there are statements and clauses which i am to follow. So the information i can leak is usually based on what's written in the memorandum or by verbal agreement from the product manager.
once the mou has been signed, we can then ask further questions. however it is most unlikely we get our answers. Our standard Q&A session definitely consists of launch dates and pricing. 85% of the time they are reluctant to provide a satisfactory answer to our queries.

i do not open units unless i've received the job sheet. otherwise it stays unopened in my cupboard full of gadgets. it is because of this sense of responsibility of mine that they entrust me with prototype units. but they also hate me for not doing my job without a job sheet. i'm strictly by the book while buntutman is the total opposite. i guess that's why he has more units than i do. luckily i get to play around with the units he receives.

however, the units we both received are barebone units. we cannot tell you what sense 3.0 is like because it isnt there. we are both expecting a fully loaded unit by end of may. that is what we were told.

i work in a bank.

corporate banking aka merchant banking

more like forced upon

there isnt a lot of difference between the 2. both units i quoted as satisfactory performance.

just to let you know, i've only quoted satisfactory performance twice for samsung. the first was on the i900. not i9000 but i900.

can fix at lowyat plaza. i saw alot of handphone repair shop by pakistani and bangla.

i sold my spare unit to my friend for RM 1200. i had no idea there are people willing to buy this for RM 2800. That is just absolutely insane.

Disagree. The telco's whom were handed pre-beta units have the dates already set. That is to strategise the campaign launch, pre-reserve the advertising slots, preparation of banners and news clippings, launch of reviews and a small section of support. These usually require a period of 60 days. However, due to certain restrictions which i cannot disclose, they are only given a small amount of time for all these preparations. The period of time i'm talking about has always been under 40 days.

They know when exactly to launch. But "they" are only a handful of people related to product and packaging. So unless you have friends or relatives related to product and packaging, all other information pertaining to anyone else within the corporation is pretty much unreliable/inaccurate.

The only person who knows for sure about all these matters; inclusive of new phone launches, telco, dates, price, ties etc etc etc; is none other than the product manager of samsung. If you have some courage, your should seek the product manager of samsung.

Located at Plaza Sentral 7-8th floor i think. I remember the previous product manager, nice chap, Mr Lim CP. He's already moved on though.

any reason to be informed about petty things when you're at the top ?

@benny888 - i'm done reviewing the tab 10.1 and my verdict is, you should get it.

wow you guys are really gadget freaks. 2800 is not a joke. most of us don't even earn that much in a month.
