It's hard to blog!

I find it hard to blog today. Opening blogger to do it is wasteful.
Using the office email is better --I have information spread out
between:

1. My Nokia N70's notes (w/c i barely open)
2. My multiple paper notebooks (w/c I also barely open)
3. Notepad texts like this one w/c I forget existed
4. Notebook.google.com (w/c was recently unblocked from the office)
5. Tumbler (w/c is now blocked from the office!)
6. I really need a way to blog quickly because once I think of
something, I tend to get overwhelmed quickly!

This is the curse of multitasking! Well, I know there's
http://www.Posterous.com - but without any adsense, for me-that is not
the platform for these thoughts.

10 Kinds of Filipinos who will buy the IPhone 3g when it comes out from Globe this 2008.

Let's think about it, who will be buying the iphone 3g?

1. All ad agencies will, for their photo shoots. Around 50-100.
2. All magazines will, same reason. This is around 30 pcs.
3. All CEOs of large companies will. Or it will be purchased for them by
the company or as a gift or
they will give it to their top employees/partners: Around 700.
4. All wives of top CEOs will. Around 200.
5. Style Concious Ad Agency personnel will. Around 400.
6. Rich Gays will. Specially those who control Philippine Show biz.
Around 300.
7. Most actors, singers and actresses will. And they will keep 1-2
phones as their backup. Like the rest
of the country. Around 400.
8. All Hi-earning Callcenter employees will. There are actually many of
these but still pale in
comparison with the number of people in their country. Around 1000.
9. Major studios will keep a copy for filming/movie appearances: 100
10.The regular employee who's deep into debt but it's deathly style
conscious she will get into debt

just to stay "in": 10,000.

There you have it Globe/Singtel/Apple: Your total Iphone 3G "early
adopter" sales is predicted to be:
15,000 people.
Let's see what that means:
15,000 x 3,500 /month = P 5,2500,000/month!
But they have to pay $ 200 for each of the phone.
15,000 x $ 200 = $ 3,000,000 = P 135,000,000 - for the first batch of
15,000 buyers of the Iphone 3G in

the Philippines.

Nice.
You will find that this will be an uncannily accurate prediction. Of
course, I said so. What ever I say,
is right! :) (That's a quote from Henry Ford, by the way).

Smart Telecoms July 2008 Retention plans (Loyalty) with 24 Months contract.

Tom Cruise's "Valkyrie" delayed again

Tom Cruise's World War II thriller "Valkyrie" has pushed back its release date to 2009, the second postponement for a production that has endured its share of headaches.

The MGM release has been moved from October 3 to February 13, coinciding with the U.S. Presidents Day holiday weekend. Last December, it was pulled from its original July 4 holiday weekend berth where it would have competed with the Angelina Jolie thriller "Wanted."

"When an opening became available for President's Day Weekend, we seized the opportunity," said MGM distribution president Clark Woods, referring to Universal's recent decision to pull "The Wolf Man" out of that slot and into April 3.

ADVERTISEMENT
"Valkyrie" is the true story of a German officer, played by Cruise, who tried to assassinate Hitler. The German government initially banned the production from shooting on location at the Berlin site where the plot was hatched and the conspirators executed. It later changed its mind after months of national debate that focused in part on Cruise's Scientology beliefs.

Some of the footage shot at the site was later damaged during processing, requiring re-shoots. Last August, 10 extras were injured when they fell off the back of a truck during shooting in Berlin.

The movie is being produced by MGM's United Artists banner, which Cruise runs with business partner Paula Wagner. UA's debut release under the new regime, the Cruise vehicle "Lions for Lambs," bombed at the box office last November.

Spy Hunters 2009

Adapted from the 1983 arcade game comes "Spy Hunter". Alex Decker, a former F-15 pilot is recruited to become a member of a government agency called International Espionage Services, or in the other words he was recruited to join an elite group called the Spy Hunters. Handling an experimental battle-car, the G-6155 Interceptor, with all varieties of weapons and gimmicks. Alex and his fellow Spy Hunters are assigned to defeat Daemon Curry, the evil president of a cartel called NOSTRA International, which has plans of wold domination.
