Since 'the geek shall inherit the earth', this geek is just waiting for his day to rule the world. In the meantime, he is a young Padawan for CNET Asia whilst toying with a myriad of fun stuff disguised as work and pretending to advise companies on tech business and new media strategies. His playmates range from startups, (un)Fortune 500s, to government organisations. And JUST in case you were wondering, this blog is NOT about to make this geek a politician like his Malaysian CNET counterpart.

    Samsung Singapore launched what seems to me as an extremely successful first bloggers’ event for the launch of their new phone, the Innov8 (i8510). I’ll let the pics do the talking:


    Daniel Goh of Samsung doing a showroom tour… we should have guessed he was gonna set us up, right?

    The Samsung Innov8 on sale!

    Some nice features presented :

    As the bloggers took it all in :

    I tried my hand at the phone again (tried it before) :

    My fav racing game on mobile, Asphat!

    We were put into a contest where each blogger had to come up with 3 photos in relation to the Innov8 and how it inspires us.

    Here’s some of the contest action :

    (My 3 ‘lazy’ photos about the Innov8. 3 new features that other phones don’t really have currently. 1. 8 megapixel camera  2. Asphat4!! Coz I completed Asphat3 you see  3. Shozu for social networking!)

    Mine was the first entry put up because 2 of the photos were taken from the powerpoint presentation. Hahaha… what to do, this is a geek you’re talking about here.

    I kinda liked molemole’s entry :

    Paddy showing off his iPhone app at the event, hur hur :

    This was the ‘printing station’ :

    Ice-angel’s winning entry (1 of 3 winners who walked away with the Innov8!) :

    Nadnut and her winning entry :

    Krisandro ’selling’ his entries to the judges :

    Pat Law explaining her entries :

    Rinaz’s winning entries :

    The final wall looks like this :

    Whatta great event, kudos to the Samsung team and to the Innov8! And of course, to all the bloggers present! (sorry I’ve gotta be awake in 3 hours I can’t name all of you! This is a pre-published post.)
