I’m not sure if this is the complete list but still you will be able to inquire about the things that you need (without the on queue girl talking on the other line).

Not everybody though is a fan of PCX but through them you will be able to get an idea how much you will your computer parts cost. As for their competitors such as Villman, Asianic, etc. they have a more user friendly website where you can call their branches directly.

I don’t want to be a pessimist nor an antagonist to the idea but whatever rates they propose, we can do nothing about it since mobile communications is becoming more of a necessity than luxury.

I’ve spent most of my days working with either a noontime show on the background or the evening news.  Burn the night away with prime time telenovelas or the regular Sky Cable movie channels. This last two months that has passed has been very hard and informative. It’s the late night discussions with family members and friends that keeps me going. I think I already have Gephyrophobia on heavy rains… want to get over it soon… I felt it when we crossed Pulilan bridge last Wednesday.

More stories to come this month

While writing this post I began to realize why some coffee shops with free WiFi access set their room temperature to 16 or so degrees… Unless you are really used to this temperature, you’d last for only an hour or so because of the bitter cold that numbs your palms. Funny how they only keep the electrical outlets inside the shop and yes the WiFi access extends to the a certain radius but some coffee shops does not offer an extension outlet. If you plan to stay for more than an hour on this coffee shop to work for an hour or two using your laptop either you bring a jacket or freeze to death. We marked the mobile experience here as “FAILED”. This coffee shop is just besides RoadHouse Grill in Boni Highstreet.

Krispy Kremes? Hmmn they do have free WiFi access and a lot of tables in and outside of the store but since it’s a family doughnut shop… It’s kinda hard to work on an environment with kids running around and screaming or horse playing LOL. It might work for some but not for me

Moving on we went to Starbucks just a few meters away. Airborne Access is available here in Bonifacio Highstreet so for those who has their Smart Airborne Access accounts activated (this also applies to those who has their AirBorne Access accounts using other systems)this is a good spot for you. I checked the download speed via SpeedTest.Net and got a download speed of 3.3 MBPS. Below is a screenshot of the results. Yay! 13 seconds for a 5MB MP3 astig di ba!? So there…

If you happen to know more free WiFi spots here in Manila please do not hesitate to post me a message. I still have a few drafts that still needs more information regarding WiFi access both free and post paid services. A list of them from your area will surely be helpful.

” On June 12, 2009, the AKO MISMO dog tags will be made available to the public for the very first time. The dog tags will be sold at P40 each; the proceeds of which will go to our beneficiary charity partners and to the socio-civic activities which we will be mounting nationwide. It is such an important event for us that we declared it the AKO MISMO DOG TAG DAY which will be held at the Bonifacio Global City Open Field in Taguig City.

The event will start at 2pm when we start selling the dog tags to the public. The dog tag will be your entrance ticket to the events of the day.

From 2PM onwards, you have the opportunity to mill around and check out the eleven charity booths we have set up, as well as other activity ! booths.

The charity booths will be distributing information about their respective causes and each of them will carry AKO MISMO T-shirts and lanyards specifically designed for the charity. People who wish to support a particular charity should simply make a purchase there and proceeds will go towards their charity of choice. Our beneficiary charity partners are Caritas Manila, UN Stand up Against Poverty, World Vision, Dynamic Teen Company, ERDA, UP PGH Cancer Institute Foundation, Gawad Kalinga, Cutis Laxa Benefit, PNP Badge of Honor Foundation, PLDT Smart Foundation and DDB Cares.

The venue will also have fun interactive booths: Henna Tattooing, Face Painting, Ako Kiss Mo booth, as well as photo and video booths. There will be food and beverage booths courtesy of McDonald’s and Pep! si.&nbsp ;

From 5 to 7PM, school bands and some up and coming professional bands will perform, interspersed with videos of the different charities and live sharing from their reps.

From 7 to 9PM, the main concert will take place featuring the hottest bands in the country: Bamboo, Pupil, The Dawn, Kamikaze, Kjwan, and Up Dharma Down. Ely will open with his hit song Sala but with lyrics specially written for Ako Mismo. There will be a special number with all the bands performing together to pay tribute to the late Philippine music icon Francis Magalona .

All registered members of Ako Mismo attending the event will get a chance to win one of five Lenovo laptops and other gadgets being given away that day. Those who have not registered yet can do so at the Ako Mismo booth. The raffle tickets are also available here. It will a have a portion that will be marked by each of the activity booths. Raffle winners who have at least three marks on their form (meaning they participated in three activities) will get limited edition premium dog tags.

The venue can accommodate 20,000 people at most. Please do come early as the gates will be closed once the venue is full.

Food and non-alcoholic drinks will be sold inside the venue, so there will be no food or drinks allowed upon entrance. For security reasons, people will be frisked at the entrance to check against illegal drugs and dangerous weapons.

We look forward to your participation at the AKO MISMO DOG TAG DAY. Thank you for your continued support. ”

This was the email I received from them . This made things a little clearer since people thought that this was a campaign to attract the attention of the masses and Ako Mismo was used for the 2010 Presidential elections but who knows? It’s the concert that matters LOL . I made no changes on the email that they’ve sent. If you are interested register to their website. I may not be watching the concert itself but the dog tags look cool hehe.
