Grab your umbrella, it is Rihanna this time!

This year has been a wonderful year fro English pop fans within Singapore and Malaysia. First, it was the MTV Asia Awards, held in Genting early August, then coincided by SINGfest in Singapore. Shortly after, we have Avril Lavigne rocking the stage at both shores. Now, it was announced that Midas Promotions is bring Rihanna to town!

I have miserably missed the Avril Lavigne concert both in KL and SG, and hope the history did not repeat for Rihanna, the current pop princess who has managed to top the charts with most of her hits lately. Imagine watching the young talented star perform live for hits such as Umbrella, Don't Stop The Music, Disturbia, Take A Bow to name a few from her latest album or even Pon De Replay, Unfaithful and S.O.S. I bet the performance would be rendered with great visual affects, stunning outfit and refreshing remixes to give the all-so-familiar songs a new beat and feel. Would be great if she could perform the new hit, Live Your Life, which she is featured with T.I.......

Check out more about her concert news from the link below. Rumour has it that her "best friend" Chris Brown will also be invited to join her in the tour. That would be a big bonus and surprise!

Mamma Mia!~ with Nokia's 5800 Xpressmusic officially announced, iPhone's doomsday is counted.......

Last Friday was a reason to rejoy for all Nokia fans. The much rumoured, much-awaited, much-coveted touch screen phone was finally unvieled by Nokia and is expected to be available by the end of the year. It has been touted as the rival to Apple's (stupid) iPhone. Check out the link below to learn how "stupid" iPhone is when compared to Nokia's 5800.

"What Nokia 5800 has, iPhone doesn’t- Indiatimes Infotech"

The Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic device packs more functionality and practicality at a much lower price tag and less restriction in terms of sharing media, which makes it a true gem and separates itself from other touch screen phones (especially iPhone) with its amazing multimedia handling prowess.

However, functionality and price tag aside, I gotta kow-tow to the unique interface that iPhone offers which gives it an extra shine and the buzz about the apparently lousy device. Other than that, I don't see why others won't like Nokia's version of touch screen phone. At first glance, I might say, everything has been well thought of. Yes, some might complaint that the camera MP is lacking behind but I think Nokia has stretched the limits by packing as much as possible with the affordable price tag to make it competitive.

Another secret weapon which has generated much hype these days is the "COMES WITH MUSIC" service. While it is not at its full force yet, the potential is endless. With almost 5 million songs in the library for the user to choose from during the one year complimentary unlimited download license, audiophiles will be rejoiced to download the songs without burning a hole on their pocket!

Hmm... now, it keep me wonder if Nokia plan to add in any touch screen phone in their N series or E series line-up?
