Nothing to say much, check the image below:

I have been feeling the need of a business PDA for the last couple months, but couldn’t find one that would balance both my desire of functionality and the budget constraint. I wanted to keep my schedule handy, arrange my daily tasks properly, listen to music on the go, browse internet and read emails, use standard phone functionalities and take occasional photos - a lot to ask from a PDA. With all these features combined, the available PDAs in the market was hitting 50K BDT in price - something way over my budget. So, I was a bit disappointed.

Then a few weeks back, one of my junior friends Abir, knocked me in IM and asked whether I am interested in buying a PDA that has not been used much and in great condition. He mentioned that it has camera, phone, and PDA functions - so I didn’t hesitate much and asked for the model he had - it was i-mate™ PDA2k. After a quick review over the internet, i realized that its the perfect combination I was looking for! I asked for the price and for a surprising 20K BDT, i got that beautiful piece in my hand today!

For the technology lovers, here goes the spec from the manufacturer:

• Platform - Windows Mobile™ Pocket PC 2003 Phone Edition Software (GSM/GPRS).
• Display - 3.5”, Transflective TFT-LCD 240 x 320 pixels, 64K Color
• Processor - Intel XScale, 400 MHz
• Memory - 64/128 MB ROM/RAM
• Internal antenna, Quad-band, GSM/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900
• GPRS class B, multi-slot class 10; Codec - AMR/EFR/FR/HR
• Bluetooth, Integrated WLAN 802.11b
• Camera -Color CMOS VGA (640×480) camera/ flash light
• Keyboard- Integrated 39-key QWERTY keyboard
• Infrared - IrDA SIR/ USB slave 1.1
• Expansion- MMC/SDIO

I have high hope that it will be serving me with the functions i desire most !

Although its a bit late to post a "happy new year" entry, I want to thank all the visitors who paid a visit to my blog last year and wish you a Happy New Year ahead. It’s been a great year with many ups & downs in my life, alas my short term memory won’t allow me to write a post like Hasin. Nevertheless, I am finally enjoying a planned life with time for my job, my company, my family and most important - myself !!!

Last year I set a number of goals - some were achieved and some were not. This year, I want to pressurize myself a bit by keeping those goals public in my blog. This will push me to walk in the right path as people will often ask about them and many of them won’t accept excuses. So, here goes my public commitment for 2008:

• I will start my Masters in Business Administration (MBA)
• I will sit (and will hopefully pass!) the Zend Certified Engineer (ZCE) exam for PHP5
• I will write at least 4 posts per month (48 in the year - a lot considering my track record!)
• I will be working with a number of libraries in Orchid framework
• I will release at least one Facebook App (personally, not from my job!)

And yeah, I’ve changed the blog theme, thanks goes to Dezinerfolio - i was looking for a dark theme for a long time. I did some modification to their theme, and added a pagination like them. Hope you guys enjoy it more. Drop me a line if you have any ideas, suggestions, views, complaints - anything!

I would like to let you all know that we’ve just launched the new website of Right Brain Solution Ltd.. I would like to personally thank all our friends, families, associates, and well-wishers - for all their support and patience.

Please have a look at the site and let us know your views, comments, ideas, criticism - anything that you would like to share with us.

Thank you all!

I am going to take some of my time out from my regular job as CTO of Right Brain Solution Ltd. and will work at Trippert, Inc. as Development Manager, starting from this month. My primary responsibilities will include software development and project management on various company projects.

I am very excited about working with Trippert as many of the developers there are known to me and I highly regard their work. Also, teaming up again with Hasin is a great thing (we worked together before in Somewhere in… and Pageflakes). I hope to enjoy this journey a lot !

Cheers!
