Especially if I am sitting. Their bags will bash your head, knock against your knees, heck some of them will even rest the heavy suckers on your lap pretending of ignorance when you stare at their face. It's as if they are punishing you. "Hey you got a seat. So you don't mind me resting my heavy bags on you."<br /><br /><br /><br />There is only one thing worse than a big swinger. It's a <span style="font-weight: bold;">my-butt-wants-a-share-of-your-seat </span>person. Don't get me started on that one...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16711912-115467123991752222?l=wifian.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GilaChesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14478596350967034213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16711912.post-1147362386300407482006-05-11T08:43:00.000-07:002006-05-11T08:46:26.380-07:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/87494081@N00/144600601/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/51/144600601_997111633d.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/87494081@N00/144600601/">Pow</a> <br /> Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/87494081@N00/">mywifian</a>. </span></div>I'm back after so long !!!!<br /><br />This is a test post.

(around <span style="font-weight: bold;">USD 30</span>)<br /><br />One pleasant surprise was that it wasn't 2nd hand. The seller passed me <span style="font-weight: bold;">brand new</span> unopened package.<br /><br />I already pre-downloaded the driver to my iPAQ so could immediately start test typing on it.<br /><br />So far my experience with it is pretty good. Can type almost as fast as on a desktop keyboard.<br /><br />The only exception is the numeric keys need to be pressed in combination with a special function key. No problem. I can get used to that.<br /><br />One bonus was that the keyboard also worked for my <span style="font-weight: bold;">Nokia 7650</span> handphone. I could type in text messages into any application on the phone with a downloaded symbian driver.<br /><br />One good thing I noticed is that I can now press <span style="font-weight: bold;">ALT-TAB</span> combination to switch to other program (<span style="font-style: italic;">multitasking</span>) - just like on a desktop Windows PC.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16711912-112719314732595232?l=wifian.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GilaChesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14478596350967034213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16711912.post-1126879159566683812005-09-16T06:55:00.000-07:002005-09-16T06:59:19.570-07:00I am entering this text using the 'stylus plus poking the on-screen keyboard'.<br /><br />Terribly slow and inefficient.
