Laughing Means A Lot To Me

iriver recently revealed the new ebook product, Cover Story. It's a wonderful and exact name. 'Coz this time the Story comes with a cover to protect the screen.

I got a real one in hand. It feels, especially the paging key on the left. As it shows on the photo, the long bar on the left is the paging key. It also takes the responsibility of going back to previous function view and going back home by clicking the bottom or top of it. There is a menu key on the top side of Cover Story and a power key at the bottom. Volume +/- key is placed on the left side of it. The best design should be the cover. If you think the cover is not convenient to take along, you are wrong. It can be attached to the backside with by magnetism. The long hole on the cover just leaves the speaker on the back of Cover Story in the air.

Touch screen, G-sensor, is the new feature. With G-sensor, you can use left or right hand to handle the ebook based on your habit. Memo function is enhanced too. Set the auto memo function to on, when you draw the stylus pen out, the meme pad pops up and is ready to draw any thing on.

Compare with Story I tried before, the Cover Story feels like lighter, which in fact is not true. But it's really very handy. Though iPad catches most people's eyes, this kind of ebook product is still attractive. Reasons?

• Lighter, smaller, handy
• Eye-protected e-ink screen
• Long battery life
• Cheaper

I would consider it if it's under $350.

When domino was releasing in Korea, I hope I could one day stands a group of this little ones a line. Now it comes true. See? Good wishes always come true. That's the power of my will.

It's been released for a few months. I just got a real one on hand. Generally it's same with previous version. But when operating, the eyes appear. It reminds me the theme song of the famous game Final Fantasy VIII: Eyes On Me. This time maybe we can say Eyes On Mplayer. Really cute.

I just know how the icons in Mac OS work. 1st, The resolution is higher than Windows, as high as 512x512; 2nd, there are several different size of images in the icon file (format: .icns). That's why the icons look so nice, even when zooming. I just tried to make one by myself. I drew iriver E10 with Fireworks and converted it to icon for Mac OS use. Click the image above to download it.

iriver is pushing new products hard this year. On July 29th, SPINN released via(Korean). With new operation concept, SPINN has a rolling stick which controls the menu. Have not got full information about it so far. It looks nice, stylish. It has vivid AMOLED screen, 480x272 resolution, which will be perfect for watching video. It also supports Flash Lite 2.1, text, Bluetooth... Not just looks good, it's powerful from inside. A worth-waiting portable media player.

Joanne wrote a nice poem for me.

人生一朝如陽雪,
盡化春水軟紅塵,
天涯若是有緣處,
山水陌路自故人.

I love it. I'm sure we will meet again.

Though I will stay for a couple of days to help, this is it. It will be a new beginning.

iriver released new product again. This time, with the theme of Live, the product is named Lplayer via(Korean). The MV is from Muse, Knights Of Cydonia: Live At Wembley Stadium 2007.

I found the full version here, the official Muse Youtube channel. Sounds great and a lot of comments shown that the audiences love it. I'm kind of love it too~

After one weekend hard work, it's on board. I can say it's on half way now. I was pushing and pushing, now it's time for a little rest. Pepz helped to take the photos, which were easy to handle. After all I'm not a real designer, I just tried my best. Hope all these can be of some help for the children who lost family, have been hurt, or can not go to school after the earthquake.

It's monday morning, 6 o'clock. Sun rises and I go to sleep.

Finally, it can be started. I proposed the plan the day right after the earthquake and got internal approval right away. But due to the authorization contract, further approval from Disney is needed... After a few days, thanks to Mr. Cheung, he granted approval directly which is in fact needed comment for the legal department. And thanks to Michael, he gave a lot of help and comment. I'm trying my best to push this forward.
