Codenamed Feisty Fawn, this version is a major improvement over the previous version. Even a newbie in Linux will be able to use it without much difficulties. Best of all, all applications in the OS are open sourced so you don't even need to pay for the softwares!
Oh, and not to mention the eye candy effect which can rival Windows Vista Aero effects at a lower hardware requirement.

So i decided enough is enough. After doing some quick research, i decided to get the Linksys WRT54GL router. Why this router you may ask? Although it is already a damn old model, it is a proven hackable router which many network enthusiasts sweared by it. At first wanna get the older WRT54G which is cheaper but the latest hardware revision do not allow third party firmware anymore.
Rode down to Sim Lim and started hunting for it. To my surprise, even WRT54GL is a difficult hunt. Most of the shops no longer carry that model. I almost gave up and in for the second option which is Planex brand, but i decided to try my luck on the last level.
To my delight i finally found the router and when i got it set up, i checked on the net and decided to flash it with DD-WRT firmware.
Now, my $90+ router had just revealed $1000 worth of features found in professional routers

No more bringing around that fragile paper slip that might just get torn anytime.
Being a curious animal, i went to the canteen and bought watever to try it out. The drink is pretty sweet with some taste of tea. Something i won't drink very often. No, it's watever......no it's Watever.... Argh! It's WATEVER!
Alas, just hours before meeting them up, I suddenly felt that my bike can shift gears the GP style. I don't even have to clutch in at all (in fact i can't even control the clutch at all. Stopped the bike, made a call to Norman, and tried his advise by kicking the gear up to second gear from neutral to release the suspected stuck clutch plates. After several failed attempts, Norman told me it's better to tow the bike to his shop for inspection rather than damaging the bike further.
By evening, Norman made a call to me and told me the cause of the breakdown: a snapped clutch lever rod. Norman explained this is due to wear and tear since it's more than 6 years old. Luckily no other damages had been made. Pic of the snapped rod will be posted once i got my hands on it. Think of the brighter side, this shit happened when i'm in Singapore, not JB. Lucky bastard.
In my case, my phone starts to go crazy by keep going into auto shutoff. It happens so frequently that it hampered my daily use. I tried hard reset (*#7370*) but still getting the same problem. My dear keep urging me to change but no! The keypad of this phone is way too good to let go, not even the N95 (sorry N95 owners) keypad can surpass the feel. So i try one last ditch to see if i can recover the phone. I for one will avoid the service centre at all cost, so i reflashed the phone firmware using the Nokia Software Updater. Thanks Nokia for finally releasing firmware flasher. After reflashing the phone, i installed back the usual apps and monitor the phone till this moment i'm typing this post. No more auto shutoffs. Guess this fixed the issue once and for all.
So in future if you encounter problems like mine, and hard reset don't seems to solve it, try this method. The service centre will probably do the same thing anyway except i can't use my phone for 10 mins compared to 5 days in service centre.
