Saturday 4 December 2010 @ 12:38 pm

I come across this video shot by Nokia N8 and was very impressed with the video quality. The objects like trees are correctly and sharply focused at close-up. You gotta view the video at 720p to see how clear and astonishing it is.

After viewing it, I was wondering how could possibly such high quality video be produced by a smartphone. It turns out that some tweaks were needed and the creator of this video revealed his tricks in the following video :-

Nokia N8 : Connect to Sony NEX3 dSLR Camera Using USB On-The-Go

Wednesday 24 November 2010 @ 1:33 am

I’ve always been looking for a way to connect a phone and a camera without the need of a PC for instant sharing and backup. Finally, I found my answer 2 days ago when I had a crazy thought to connect my Nokia N8 to Sony NEX3 dSLR camera using USB On-The-Go.

Nokia N8 : Connect To Sony NEX3 dSLR Camera Using USB OnTheGo

Nokia N8 has a cool feature called USB On-The-Go, which enables the user to connect the phone to USB storage devices such as thumb drive, mobile phone, etc. So, I thought why not try to connect the N8 to my camera and see if they recognize each other. To my surprise, both devices connected without a problem and the N8 was able to read all files in the camera.

I love to travel and one of the problems I always have while traveling is to worry that my camera will run out of storage space. With the USB On-The-Go feature of Nokia N8, I don’t have to worry about this problem anymore because I can now backup my photos from Sony NEX3 to the phone’s 16GB storage (expandable to 48GB) without the need of a PC or laptop.

On top of that, I can instantly share any photo in my camera across the Internet via Twitter, Flickr or Facebook directly from the storage of the camera as well! How often after you snapped an amazing picture with your digital camera but found out that you can’t tweet it from the digital camera? Now you can, using Nokia N8!

Watch the video below to see it in action :-

Firefox Mobile is exclusively available for Maemo devices only at the moment, making Nokia N900 one of the first few devices to have the honour to run it. Besides, Opera Mobile runs smoothly on N900 as well, all thanks to the huge virtual memory the device has.

Beware Of Maybank2U.com Phishing Email

Wednesday 7 July 2010 @ 1:07 pm

I’ve been receiving a lot of phishing emails sent from Maybank2U.com asking the users to secure the account by clicking a link in the email. See the screen shot of the phishing email below :-

Maybank2U Phishing Email

The email looks very suspicious when I first received it :-

  • 1. The title has obvious spelling mistake.
  • 2. The email was sent from an unknown source outside Malaysia.
  • 3. The link to secure your account looks legit when you hover your mouse over the link.
  • In fact, the link is actually pointing to franchiyhancevic.biz (phishing website)

The Whois Record of Maybank2U.com does not have any information about Malayan Banking Berhad. However, the link Maybank2U.com is pointing to Maybank2U.com.my though.
