I’ve been tinkering around w/ the N80 for a couple of days now, & the thing that really impresses me the most about the unit, is the VOICE COMMAND feature. On the first try after resetting the Voice Adaptations, the unit was immediately 100% accurate right away in terms of following the voice commands, [...]
‘Other Fights’
* The results of most of the fights of this UFC event were not really that exciting, lots of decision wins, no submission wins & few Knock Outs.

Here’s one mainly neat, but doubfully very useful trick you can do w/ your 3G celphone: Viewing traffic intersection cameras.
First, this currently is available for FREE to Smart subscribers. Not sure if Globe is offering a similar service. Am using a post-paid plan, so not sure also if it works w/ pre-paid [...]
