Wah this chicken pox business is quite uncomfortable! 26th of august, feeling muscle aches and general malaise. Pumped myself up with 90mg of arcoxia and 100mg of volteran, felt better after that.. 27th of august, still feeling malaise with a bit of fever. pumped up 200mg celebrex, 250mg mefenamic acid and 1 g of paracetamol.. also worked.. 28th of august.. could actually go to work. at work small vesicles started popping out, and got diagnosed by a skin specialist that i had chicken pox. 28th of August, BBQ night.. could even have a BBQ in my house.. (thats another story) Next day all the vesicles broke out.. Bloody painful! There was no denying it!! It was chicken pox alright. For the next 2 days, I couldn't even touch the computer.. All i could do was eat acyclovir and atarax, and pop sedatives to sleep and get it over with. Parents also came down from KL to look after me (big baby) Today its getting a bit better.. slightly more comfortable.. but still not normal... more later

Sandisk Ultra II SD Plus USB 1GB card review

Bought this new SD plus USB card at Low Yat Plaza Still Relatively new in the market so the price is still about twice the price of Normal SD cards Here is a mini review and some rough specs. Running on an iPAQ HX2750 with Intel Xscale Bullverde PXA270 processor @ 624Mhz PlaysDIVX AVI with no noticable lag so far. (Stargate atlantis HDTV) Benchmark with TCPMP SD with USB Average speed 166.86% Benchmark Data Rate 1.5 Mbit/s Original Data Rate 914 kbit/s SD Transcend 80x Average speed 160.88% Benchmark Data Rate 1.6 Mbit/s Original Data Rate 985 kbit/s No Visible difference. Both played video well. Transfer of a 20mb avi file. Sandisk Ultra II SD with USB 1GB SD usb to iPAQ (read) 45 secs (0.44mb/sec) iPAQ to SD usb (write) 62 secs (0.32 mb/sec) Transcend 80x 1GB SD to iPAQ (read) 30 secs (0.67mb/sec) iPAQ to SD (write) 30 secs (0.67mb/sec) Summary: READ: Transcend 80x SD 1GB is 1.5 times faster than Sandisk SD USB 1GB WRITE: Transcend 80x SD 1GB is 2.1 times faster than Sandisk SD USB 1GB BUT i still like the USB capability of the Sandisk!
