Some shots from the admin office observation deck...
I made one round through all the exhibition booths which were fitted with high-tech LCD displays to showcase Maxis' new 3G service capabilities. Hot-looking promotion babes were sporting sexy outfits in green and white.
I decided to check out one booth which was featuring the Maxis portal's Game Zone. Gorgeous Christine showed me the capabilities of the 3G Motorola phone in her hands. As she tinkered with the device to download some cartoon clips for me, I couldn't help wondering about the possibility of me having a girlfriend like her. Anyway, one yellow looking SpongeBob popped up into view after all the time waiting for the buffering to complete. It's kinda cool. So I asked her if EPL was available too. Unfortunately no but no worries man. Demand will be great and supply will naturally fill the void. Her voice was so sultry all the time that I find it a little hard to concentrate on whatever that I was viewing then. Knowing myself, I was extra careful all the time whenever I held the mobile device in my hands as I was afraid of accidentally dropping it. Christine proceeded to show me the real-time traffic livecam service feature. After some buffering time again, I got to see the Ampang Park intersection. Cool, no traffic jam at all!

8.00 PM
Emcee of the day went right straight to the center of the hall. Also in green and white. You can tell that this is an extremely cool emcee when he performed some amusing gig that delighted the audience.

He then later called for couples to join a contest with a pair of Nokia 3G phone for the winning couple. There were enough sporting couples who took up the challenge.
Couple's Song Miming Contest
Contest was simple. Song will be played, couples will need to mime and dance to the tune of the song.

Videcam projected onto big screen. Cool!
Everyone seemed to like Indian dance songs. Dancing around the emcee as if he was a tree. At times, the emcee had to interrupt too during part of the routine when it was deemed to be too sexually explicit for general public viewing, such as when one overtly couple who decided to hug on stage. Hilarious. The winning couple was way way much better than the rest. The audience just loved it when the guy started with a John Travolta opening move.
Winners of the song miming contest. They won hands down.
Technology is cool to me but I still have the budget-sense to consider the usefullness of the some of the offerings available. Will just have to wait a little while longer for the economies of scale to kick in before even deciding to sign-up for the service.
PS:
I was supposed to fill in for a friend's extra ticket for War Of The Worlds. But as it turned out, my friend's friends was lacking one ticket in the end. Since I have watched WOTW and it's definitely not on my Must-Watch-Movie-Again list, I opted out. No problem man, all I needed to do was to find something else to while my time away with. Drifted over to Kinokuniya and eventually bought 2 business books for the office.
