Isaiah's Tech

Expansys has the Nokia N97 up for $1,075 USD and they also say that it's scheduled for a June 23, 2009 launch date. The price is not as expensive as i thought it would be. I was projecting a number around $1,200 USD, so i guess that's good. Although it is still expensive, especially for me since i'm Canadian (Hooray for CAD). This phone has a 5MP camera and could have Skype pre-installed. But, i'm not exactly sure because some phone companies are complaining to Nokia about bundling their phones with Skype. They don't think it's necessary and all that mumbo-jumbo. They probably also complained about their revenue going down, since Skype-to-Skype calls are free. Whatever.

The HTC Touch Diamond 2 that was unveiled at MWC 2009 will be launching in Q2 (around April 17, to be exact) in Europe. This phone will sadly be running WinMo 6.1 Professional, has a 3.2-inch screen with HTC's TouchFLO 3D UI and also packs a 5MP camera. The phone will start out at 400 ($564 USD) when it touches down in Europe. There is no word on a US release.

"I'll buy anything that's shiny and made by Apple." That is almost an exact quote from Onion News Network's MacBook Wheel Parody. And it's true. With the new rumoured release of new Apple desktops, starting on March 24, someone in the comments already said, "Either way it sounds like my credit card will be getting a new charge." Personally, i think that everything Apple makes [like Sony] is overpriced. Damn, sorry i can't afford Apple products, but even if i could, i still wouldn't get an Apple desktop. The design is nice, but that's just about it. It's a showboat desktop PC.

Chris Brown and Rihanna are back together. All abusive men can rejoice once again. And everyone can call Rihanna an idiot for taking back CB. I think it's stupid on Rihanna's part and she will probably lose some of her "fans." But, she doesn't really care. Chris Brown and Rihanna are happy to be together, no matter how many times he beats her, so let them be. It's a Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston story all over again, all they're missing is the drugs. Anyways, this story really shocked me because even Rihanna's dad had good words to say about the event. The event meaning Chris Brown and Rihanna getting back together. Rihanna's dad spoke out and said, "I love my daughter with whatever road she takes. I'm behind her win or lose. I will be supportive. If that's the road she wants to choose, I'm behind her." -1 for Rihanna.
