IPad 2 - Part One

I shall post my thoughts and feelings about the lastest IPad 2 before the release in Singapore and also another after the release. The second generation of IPad claims to be thinner, lighter and faster than the first generation. I've asked afew friends of mine who own an IPad on how do they feel about it. They all mentioned on how fast their IPad 1 is. Infact, an apple device will be able to play flash games and watch flash videos with a help of an app caled "Alwaysonpc". The application cost USD$24.99 (Estimated). I know it isn't cheap, but enabling your idevices to have access to flash player, its certainly worth it to me. A friend of mine uses his first generation IPad to access his habbo and facebook games with "Alwaysonpc" and he claims that its 100% no lag. IPad 2 have a build in dual core A5 processor which is twice the processor of IPad 1. I can't imagine the speed of IPad 2! Apple also claims that IPad 2 have super fast graphics so that gamers can have a super smooth game play experience. All these spects make me feel that the second generation of IPad is alot better than IPad 1 and I feel like buying it. :P I guess I'll have to take my time to save up. I can predict that the moment IPad 2 is being release in Singapore somewhere this/next week, the stock will be out within hours of its launch. And the new stock will only be in after months. Now, lets wait patiently for the second generation of the apple IPad to be released in Singapore and see if the IPad 2 is as good as apple claims to be. So, seeya in the next post :P

Change of Handphone Policy

I am please to hear that our principle reviewed our many years of debate on the handphone policy and decided to make a change for it. Weeks ago during an assembly, she spoke to us about the advantages and disadvantages of using handphone in school. She than allowed us to bring our phones to school, but not allowed to use/display it. Currently, we are only allowed to use our handphones after school in the "Yelow Box" at the foyer. I find that kind of weird because imagine your parents are calling you when you are in the canteen, you have to run all the way to the foyer just to pick up the call. I suggest that the school may review on this policy again and change the rule such that we are allowed to use our handphones anywhere after school, as long as no teaching is going on. Don;t you agree with me that this would mae life easier for students?
