IPad Pre-Order April 3 Available in the Philippines.. Sadly not yet. I checked the ipad apple store to have my ipad pre ordered or reserved but apparently its only available in ALL States in the US and not available anywhere else.

Just like thousands who receive the ‘ipad coming april 3′ email, expect that many will be searching for more information about it – specs, features, availability etc.. Like i said, here? Not available…

Got my own iPhone 3GS yesterday. This is the unit that comes with the Gflex 800 plan with a cash out of Php30,400. There is a 24-month lock in period for any plan with Globe (and with Smart for in that matter). Also, I enroll my account with the “Super Surfing” promo. According to the Globe personel, that promo was initially offered for the Blackberry plan for Php2,000. Now the Super Surfing plan for Globe Philippines is also available for the Iphone and lowered the monthly fee at Php1,200.

Anyway, like I said I instantly got my iPhone 3GS from Globe SM Fairview yesterday. I say instant because I went there, gave my application form and docs, they went inside their office and brought me the unit.

This is actually my third application for the iPhone plan. The first one was in Megamall. I was strolling in Cyberzone and tried the test unit from Globe (after submitting my clearance papers to my previous employer). I was impressed with the ‘Maps’ and Youtube feature that I enlist myself. I was pretty excited then and was looking forward for the call from Globe… but it didn’t come.

Second application was in SM Marilao. This was during the time when I was preparing the requirements for my new employer. Still, it felt like I was waiting forever for the call. That’s why when we did the grocery for the first part of February, I thought of bringing photocopy of payslips, billing statement, and IDs.. (but they just took my ITR and photocopy of my HSBC credit card).

Anyway, here’s my current application installed on the iPhone:

If my memory severs me right, those applications that are not free are the following:

• Text Twist 2 – $1.99 – Word game
• Hootsuite – $1.99 – Twitter application

I’m not sure if I need to jailbreak this or use winpwn since I am quite satisfied when installing application in it.

Wireless Security and Spy Camera – in Full Color – 1.2Ghz Frequency. Yesterday, I bought this wireless spy cam over the internet (but payment is through BPI bank deposit). I am thinking of putting this right either outside the house or in the garage with the car.

This Tiny Security TV Cam has a built-in 1.2GHz transmitter with a range of more than 50 meters for transmitting images and sound to a TV or monitor. This little spy camera is sold in the USA for hefty dollars (100US$), here, we offer super-value price of P1900. This security and spy cam wirelessly transmits LIVE COLOR video to any TV or VCR in your home. Crisp, clear video shows you what’s happening – WIRELESSLY!

The buzz is all over the internet! Good thing I checked my Google Alerts for “Stephen King“! Apparently there are negotiation and they have been working on a possible sequel for Stephen King’s 1977 hit, “The Shinning“!

Here’s the some ‘spoilers’ or initial plan for the sequel..

“Danny is now 40 years old and living in upstate New York, where he works as the equivalent of an orderly at a hospice for the terminally ill. Danny’s real job is to visit with patients who are just about to pass on to the other side, and to help them make that journey with the aid of his mysterious powers. Danny also has a sideline in betting on the horses, a trick he learned from his buddy Dick Hallorann.”

Also the initial title for the sequel is called “Doctor Sleep”.

Here’s what Stephen King supposed to be thinking or that give him the idea of the sequel for The Shinning….

“Seems King was wondering whatever happened to Danny Torrance of The Shining, who when readers last saw him was recovering from his ordeal at the Overlook Hotel at a resort in Maine with fellow survivors Wendy Torrance and chef Dick Halloran (who dies in the Kubrick film version),” the Torontoist reports. “King remarked that though he ended his 1977 novel on a positive note, the Overlook was bound to have left young Danny with a lifetime’s worth of emotional scars. What Danny made of those traumatic experiences, and with the psychic powers that saved him from his father at the Overlook, is a question that King believes might make a damn fine sequel.”

All you Stephen King fans, let’s all wait for further news shall we?

I was having problem getting the video and pictures of us walking around the perya this afternoon, so I decided to blog something else. :)

I was checking my other, forgotten email and found out that Lifehouse has a new album with “Halfway Gone” is one of the single. Here’s the MTV of the song plus lyrics… Enjoy.. I’m enjoying it at the moment.. wonder when will I buy the CD.

Halfway Gone Lyrics

You were always hard to hold
So letting go aint easy
Im hanging on but growing cold
While my mind is leaving

Talk, talk is cheap
Give me a word you can keep
Cause youre halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin feelin this way
Cause Im halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone
You got one foot out the door
And choking on the other
Always think theres something more
Its just around the corner

Talk, talk is cheap
Give me a word you can keep
Cause Im halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone

If you want me out, then Im on my way
And Im feelin, feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in, but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Now Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone
Dont take too long, dont take too long
Cause Im on my way
If you take too long
Cause Im halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin Im feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone

If you want me out, then Im on my way
And Im feelin , feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in, but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Cause Im halfway gone, and Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Cause Im halfway gone, yeah Im halfway gone
