2010 The year of Mac tablet so to speak

New York Times has posted an article titled “2010: The Year of the Tablet” which describes the 10-inch screen (Apple) tablet capable of streaming video, and 2 hours battery life with always on web connection. Well such battery life would drive you nuts, isn’t it?!

With the Apple special media event scheduled on 26th January, 2010, and the report of Mac developers being told to prepare for full screen apps, all points to a product release from Apple. Hopefully Steve Jobs will address this special product in person to stun the world (again).

May it be 7-inch or 10-inch Mac tablet, I hope this is as good as expected. Sure we’ll see people carrying the Mac tablet on public transit like now with iPhone all over the MTR & bus.

5-megapixel camera in the next iPhone

OmniVision Technologies has secured orders from Apple for 5-megapixel camera sensors destined for the next-generation iPhone reported by DigiTimes. That’s good news but not that exciting for the next iPhone. I would rather see more bug fix & enhancement in iPhone OS 4.0 myself.

The last restaurant of their kind

Went to 中央飯店 (Central Restaurant) that I haven’t been to for more than 10 years tonight. The dishes and even the price feel like the old days. Delicious big dishes of the good old Cantonese cuisine at a very very affordable price.

You can see their old school restaurant logo featuring one of their signature dish – 鹽焗雞 (roasted chicken with salt).

The dish is 糯米鴨 (deep fired duck with sticky rice stuffing). This is an old style cuisine that requires pre-ordering.
