Ps3 Poker 2_20a

30 Dec

Although many people may choose to play their poker at a live casino or in a top 10 online casinos, the major video game consoles are intent on providing options for those who want to enjoy poker through the convenience of their own video game system.

The Alcatel OT-355D Dual-Sim Phone

21 Dec

It’s the time of the year again when we get ourselves new phones.  But while others are probably deciding whether to get an Android phone, an iPhone 4, or a BlackBerry, I wanted an inexpensive dual-sim phone.

I have nothing against pricey state-of-the-art mobile phones.  It’s just that my need for a mobile phone is  limited to calling and sending text messages that a mid-end or a high-end phone automatically becomes an extravagance.

That Stuck iPod Touch Home Button

20 Dec

A couple of months ago, I agonized over a stuck iPod Touch home button.  It was  a nightmare, I tell you.  I love my 1st gen iPod Touch to pieces and a stuck home button means a ruined iPod Touch experience.

The list of cant’s is endless if your home button is jammed.

I researched on how to fix it myself but the possible solutions involved applying solvents like alcohol to the area surrounding the home button, dropping the iPod Touch a couple of times, and even taking it apart.  There’s no way I’d do any of the three recommended fixes.

The soundest advice I read in one of the forums inhabited by iPod Touch enthusiasts is to bring to an authorized service center.
