<br />
It is interesting to note that instead of a standard laptop adaptor, Google & HP had chosen to charge the Chromebook via Micro USB port, a method common with the smartphone charging, which we think is wise, as the adaptor is heavy, pricy (if faulty) and you may just bring only 1 charger for all your gadget need - tablet, smartphone & Chromebook!<br />

<br />
It's too bad that most of the offices out there doesn't have any facility to give you a quick, short snap. And the bosses sure doesn't like it. But imagine this -- we always have been working late, rushing for deadlines, annoyed by forever-changing requirements from the clients, causing us to accumulate sleep deficit. And it should be payback time!<br />
<br />
Introducing OSTRICH PILLOW - a cool device that offers a micro environment in which to take a comfortable power nap (a shot sleep which is intended to quickly revitalize the sleeper). Have a power nap in the office, travelling or wherever you want with OSTRICH PILLOW.<br />

The big story this week is none other than Microsoft's latest product ... *drumroll pls*......the Microsoft Surface. This is Microsoft's latest gamble in winning back market share - be it tablet, sales or whatever. Its a tablet that's a unique expression of entertainment and creativity. A tablet that works and plays the way you want. A new type of computing. Surface.<br />
<br />
<b>So what's all the fuss about this iPad killer?</b><br />
<a name='more'></a>The key differentiator for these two giant product shall be Surface's "<b>Touch Cover</b>" - a protective cover-cum-keyboard. While the iPad has this virtual on-screen touch keyboard that covers half the screen whenever summoned, the Surface had cleverly attached a keyboard that doubles as protective cover which definitely increase your productivity while on the road.<br />
<br />
And not to mention, the Surface comes with a stand and VaporMg finishing casing!<br />

<br />
Gmail had been a wonderful email service to everyone when it was launched on 2004. With 1GB storage at that time, it trashed all other free email service provider such as Hotmail and Yahoo! mail.<br />
<br />
Almost eight year later, now Gmail brings email (or online conversation as what Gmail like to refer as) to another level with the introduction of free text messages (SMS) from Gmail to mobile phone.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">How to send Gmail SMS to any mobile phone (from Gmail):</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><ol style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><li>Enter your contact’s name in the ‘Search or invite friends’ box in Chat, and select <strong>Send SMS </strong>from the box of options that appears to the right of your contact’s name. Or, if you already have a Chat window open for this contact, just click <strong>Options</strong>, and select <strong>Send SMS</strong>.</li>
<li>In the dialog box, enter a phone number in the ‘Send SMS messages to this number’ field. This feature is only launched in selected countries. Click <a href="http://www.google.com/support/chat//bin/answer.py?answer=164876" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6611cc;" target="_blank">here</a> for the list of supported countries and operators. If you are not located in one of these countries you can still use it, but you won't see the SMS option in Chat until you enable it manually in the Chat settings page.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Save</strong>.</li>
<li>A Chat window appears. Just type your message as you would normally. When you hit <strong>Enter</strong>, the message will be sent to the phone number you entered.</li>
</ol><br />
If your contact replies, the text message response will appear as a reply in Chat. These conversations are stored in your Chat history just like regular chats (but keep in mind that you can’t go off the record while communicating via SMS).<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">SMS charges:</span></b> Google does not charge for using this service. However, mobile providers' standard charges will apply to any SMS messages sent from a mobile device to Google Chat. Please check your mobile provider's price plan for details.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>FAQ about Gmail SMS chat</b></span><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">How many free Gmail SMS available to each Gmail account?</span></b><br />
Initially, each Gmail account will be granted a credit of fifty (50) messages. Each time you send a message, your credit decreases by one. Every time you receive an SMS message in Chat (for example when a phone user replies to one of your messages) your credit increases by five, up to a maximum of 50. If your SMS credit goes down to zero at any point, it will increase back up to one 24 hours later. So, you won't ever be locked out of the system.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Tips: </span></b><i>When you Gmail SMS credit is low, you can always send a Gmail SMS to your own phone, and then reply to that message multiple times (your each reply increases your Gmail SMS by five).</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">How to Start or Stop Receiving SMS from Google Chat?</span></b><br />
If you receive an unwanted SMS message from Gmail Chat, you can block future messages from the sender. Just reply to the message with the word 'BLOCK'. If you change your mind about that sender, you can send a message with the phrase 'UNBLOCK' to the phone number from which the message was sent (the SMS messages sent from Gmail Chat have their own number associated with the sender's email account).<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">What are the supported mobile operators?</span></b><br />
As at the time of writing, Malaysia's supported mobile operators for Gmail SMS are DiGi and Maxis. For a list of updated <a href="http://support.google.com/chat//bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=164876&rd=1" target="_blank">mobile operator supported for Gmail SMS in Malaysia and worldwide, kindly refer here</a>.<br />
