Tech65 has Phoebe from Edelman, DK from Blog2U, and Sabrina helping Gavin from Fleishman & Hillard to thank, for inviting us to the Samsung AV Roadshow 2008 (and Mobile too, although that was discussed last episode), GT/CISCO collaboration press event, and the ultra-glam Scarlet event respectively. In this very berry extremely zomgwtfbbqkthxbye special episode, Farinelli, Daniel and NTT talk about what went on in these three events.

In the interest of keeping this episode from being an uber-dull run through of every darn item and its specs, we have skimmed through them to bring you the various products’ one outstanding feature. Should you wish to find out more about any product mentioned in this episode, please email farinelli[at]tech65[.]org and he will be glad to try to answer your question(s) with as much information as the press kits provide.

This week we have a special guest joining us, Nicole. She brings a feminine touch to an otherwise brutish and boorish show. We begin with a story of intrigue and mystery, something that even Hollywood could not imagine. A feisty little start up, Psystar is standing up to Apple, and SURPRISE it does exist and is actually shipping! We also talk about Samsung and their recently launched new phones, without leaving out the LURVE for our pals @ Nokia. As men we cannot help but be fascinated with speed and precision, and alas our wishes are granted with WD’s new Velociraptor Hard Drive.

Your Latin Lovers,
Julio, Francisco, Daniel, and Nicoletta.

Tech65.org is back! Here’s what you missed!

April 28th, 2008 by Daniel

Hi everyone!
Tech65.org is finally back online for SingNet users! We’ve put together a compilation of all the episodes of Channel65 and 65bits that you probably have missed just for you!

What Happened
If you are a SingNet user, we apologise for the downtime Tech65.org has been having the past few weeks. Something happened over at SingNet that prevented SingNet users from accessing the website unless you had set up your computer to manually connect to SingNet’s proxy server or DNS server. We have been working hard the past few weeks trying to figure out what was wrong, but after a phone call with SingNet, they finally fixed the connection at their side and brought the website back online. On behalf of the Tech65.org crew, I want to thank all of you for your patience, and thank SingNet for their assistance.

What you’ve missed:

The Fiat Cinquecento aka 500

April 19th, 2008 by Jerrick

Trying to get into the Boot

The Fiat 500 or in its original Italian, the Cinquecento is a beautiful example of modern engineering from an inspired original, the modern 500 is by no means a compromised or even cheap descendant of the Nuova 500. To put it in a more poetic form, whereas the Nuova 500 was designed to be practical, and functional first, much like your dressed down mother who raised you through two economic recessions and does not really see the point of getting anything for form. Whilst the modern 500 is your little sister, raised in the internet age, savvy, smart, with some money to spend, and she’s all about fashion, looks, but wants stuff to have all the luxuries. Jerrick, our intrepid editor attended the Singapore launch of the 500 and survived to tell the tale.

With all this love floating around, we’re sure you guys will want to feel safe whilst practicing all this free loving, and such safety comes easily with Gadget Track, software that you can use to track your PC down, when you lose your laptop all you have to do is activate it and the programme will try to phone home. You may also want to keep all those naughty, naked, sprawled out on that carpet pictures of your Macbook safe, with EasySafe. Which is simply a key to all your sensitive files.

With Love and Adoration
Farinelli, That guy you checked out last night, asked for his twitter, gmail, FB, Myspace etc. etc., and realised that he’s too hot for you anyway
NTT, that guy who checked you out last night, and you felt a familiar stirring in your… Thinkpad
Jerrick, You just want him coz he’s that extra special 65th bit
Kai-Yi, You know you want a guy who drives a Lamborghini in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
