This IT Show was really big at Singapore Expo and it was shown in the news as well like it might be one of the best IT Shows out there of this year. It might be large that it consumed like 1-3 hours of explorations and information and product gathering. For me, I don’t buy stuffs from the IT Shows by the way but here were some of the updates.
There were some car cameras that were similar to normal cameras and the cameras in your smart devices. Also, there were DVD players for the cars that feature GPS as well that can be useful. I might have discovered on the net that even the PSP can be used as the GPS as well but you will need some GPS related hardware and app you want so that you can hook your PSP on the car deck or something. It may be great but it can attract like a huge amount of laziness or something.
Plus, there were even more Android TV devices that provide even more useful purposes such as having a Karaoke on the Android TV for instance. How do you like that when you turn your home into another modern technology powered Karaoke room with the Android TV device. You can play games on that but I recommend using the actual Android device which is the smartphone/tablet one.
And of course, the Surface and Surface Pro were in this IT Show. Too bad that I still couldn’t see the Surface RT at Challenger at Tampines though but I was told that it could be found in Challenger elsewhere. The Touch Cover was kind of weird like a freaking toy or something but it served as a reminder of a dual-screen Acer laptop with the virtual keyboard at the bottom screen. Think of that laptop as the larger HD Nintendo DS system. But I told that person that there were some presumed technical problems haunting that laptop that I was given a Type Cover which was already better, right?
Lastly, the Pioneer booth. They surely had mixed modern technology with the DJing equipment. The only place to buy their DJ products is at Sim Lim Square which might be unfortunate to me anyway as I think that place is seriously vulnerable to scams or something. The least expensive one cost $100+.
Other discoveries included the interesting gaming computers, some IT *abes promoting their products as well as the ISP booths which were pretty large. For gaming computers, there were some cool features on one of those gaming laptops such as the secondary monitor on the right side of the keyboard that featured touch-screen ability. You can activate other features as well as to disable certain keyboard shortcut features like trying to prevent any irritation while you play games. There was a Samsung gaming laptop known as Samsung Series 7 Gaming laptop that has four freaking modes and one of them is the Gaming mode. The wallpaper and screensaver were damn cool looking but it could be extra better if the interface is looking futuristic as well, not the freaking default Windows 7 interface anyway. Also, the version 8 of Parallels Desktop had some sort of bonus. If you bought it under Windows 8 bundle, you will get the full version of Windows 8 as the Guest OS installed but that will mean extra cost compared to buying Parallels Desktop alone.
Unfortunately, as I went back home, it was already raining but I bravely dashed through the rain to the bus stop while getting drenched. That hurt my ears but I couldn’t get the water drops out of them as if I had learnt a bunch of retarded tips in public areas like that. Maybe I should take superior tips and tricks next time.
