Gadget lust is something of a phenomenon nowadays as proven by Apple's Iphone 4 recent launch quite recently by our local telcos and soon the much anticipated Ipad. Hard to say which is what and why but is pretty much like buying the "lifestyle" instead of just the product.  The were people who queued up at "ungodly" hours just to get their hands on this "magical" device.

It's amazing how strong the brand loyalty is. The widely discussed Iphone 4's "AntennaGate" issue has not deterred the "die-hard" fans from buying it. Even when they knew that Apple is coming out with the "white" Iphone 4 that is supposed to fix the current antena design defect. This scenario reminds me of a law called the Diffusion of Innovation. According to this law, we all sit at the different timescale such as the innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority and laggards (the last ones to adopt anything, in fact the reason why these sets of people buy dial-tone phones is because they couldn't find the rotary phones anymore).  I guess it safe to say that those who bought the Iphone 4  are in the 1st and 2nd categories.

But I digressed.

What a Raya week... I hope everyone enjoyed your Aidilfitri break. I'm pretty sure there were dramas when all the siblings congregate and met each other in both fashionable and unfashionable manner.  Either way, good, bad, regretful or memorable moments happening around us are just part and parcel of life. Lets forgive, forget and move on. Yeap move on...

After a week long marathon of stuffing the ketupat, lemang, rendang, sate, kuah kacang, laksa, mee kari and the list goes on and on, its time to burn the calories stocks and reduce the spare tire.

Dear CAs, Friends and Followers,

Wishing all of you Salam Aidilfitri and Maaf Zahir Batin. For those driving back to your hometowns, please remember to drive safe and have a pleasant journey.

We wish you a safe and enjoyable celebration. Just remember not to over-whack the lemang, ketupat and rendang and practice "eating safe" as well.

Here's a "classic" Raya song during the 80s. I don't know if it is just me but I find that majority of the new raya songs fail to lift the raya spirit and ambience.  Retro rules!



Have Fun and Selamat Hari Raya!

Dear CAs and friends,
