When I first got my Nokia N82 about 2 years ago, it was the best and greatest little gadget around. It has a 5 megapixel camera, A-GPS, Maps, Games and a fantastic Music Player. The one thing that I was not impressed with was its ability to play online video from sites such as youtube.com. It was slow and most time I was not able to watch any flash videos. I lived with this for a while. The web was filling up with alot of video sites. Video was the in thing. Now you can find instruction videos on computer software, repairing PC, tutorials on 3D animation and many many more things. I installed a few flash players on the phone, but none of them gave a friendly experience.

Then came ‘Skyfire’ from skyfire.com. The ultimate browser for the mobile device. What a fantastic little browser this proved to be. The browser is free. You can watch video from almost any site have pages rendered like they appear on a regular PC. I was delighted to install this on my Nokia phone. I also work on my Windows Mobile based iPAQ. If you have a mobile device head on over to skyfire.com and check out this browser.

Apple has just release their new iPad and ‘it’s that simple’. I have been a iPod Touch user for more than a year now, and for me the iPad looks just like an over-sized iPod Touch. The most attractive thing about the release of this product is the price. Apple announced that the starting price is just $499. Now that is great value for those who don’t already own an iPod Touch or iPhone. The functions all look the sames as what Apple users are used to, but the applications look a bit more polished.

Whereas the iPod could fit into you pocket nicely, the iPad would require you to carry it around in a case or bag. I see using this device on the move would not be as convenient as the iPhone or iPod Touch. But then again it is much better than carrying a laptop around. The iPad is a great boost for those who are on Facebook or other Social Networking Site most of the time.

There are different models of iPads. Check Apples specifications page for the details. The iPad has a microphone unlike the early iPod Touch models and also has Bluetooth and Wifi capability.

For me the whole idea of this product is for entertainment and to sell more digital downloads like music, video, ebooks and games. This is business after all. We have to wait and see how much impact this product will make with the consumers. Anyway let us know you take on the pad. If you have some time watch the video below.

In recent months the Malaysian Government has encouraged Malaysians to develop in the field of IT, 3D Animation, Digital Cartoon Making and other Multimedia related fields. The computer has been a powerful tool in boosting the entertainment industry. As you may have seen, the latest movies all feature some form of special effects done on computers.

Those who develop skills in the field of computer animation can develop graphics for moving pictures, cartoons and visuals for instructions. Simulations and visualisation is possible with the powerful graphical capability of computers.

I wanted to bring to your attention a software package that I have been using for the past 10 years for 3D Animation. This package is Truespace from a company called Caligari. They started making animation software in the days of the Commodore Amiga. Over time the animation software has been adapted to work with Windows based PC that most of us use today.

You now have the opportunity to get into 3D Animation by using this worderful software. The cost to you is $0. Yes you can download it now for free. Please surf over to www.caliagri.com and get your download now. I don’t know how long this download will there. Once you have downloaded the software, install it, then head over to www.youtube.com and type in ‘Truespace’ into the search and watch some of the instruction videos on how to make models and animated them using Truespace.

Have fun. Yet your hand wet with Multimedia skills.
