Now I am not much of a shopper generally, nowhere near as good a shopper as Nga, who I observed in combat in Vietnam -- she knows how to get a good deal. Like some other men, shopping fills me with a sense of anxiety and dread -- especially shopping for something I don't really understand. I always got girlfriends to help me buy cellphones in Japan, and the one that I did buy for myself, one stark sunny cold Christmas Day in Akihabara, was pink. Why did I buy a pink phone? Because I panicked, and just picked up the first thing I saw, hoping rather forlornly, that pink didn't mean feminine in my new adopted home country of Japan (of course, it did, and it still does.) If I had done the hard comparisons, shopped around, thought about it, I would have bought something completely different. At least something with a more masculine color! But I am a hunter, not a gatherer, and when I enter a shop or mall or department store, I think of nothing but getting out of there as fast as possible. I am there for the quick kill. And when it comes to shopping, shopping for mobile phones (or cell phones, or hand phones, or whatever you want to call them) is the hardest, most tedious kind of shopping imaginable, because the plans are so complicated, and there are so many pro's and cons to weigh. At least in Japan I am a little used to the cell phone (keitai system), but outside of Japan, in countries like Singapore and Vietnam and The Philippines and India, I am a complete novice. On top of that, shopping for someone else is also that much more difficult than shopping for yourself, because you risk the extra burden of shame if you should blunder. I was only going to be in Singapore one short day en route to Vietnam as part of the Obsessive Love and the Rolling of the Dice, and I didn't know the city particularly well. If I had my way I would have spent the day soaking up the souks in Kampung Glam, or hanging with my feathered friends at Jurong Park. But Nga wanted me to find out how much the Nokia 6300 or 6230i models costed in Singapore, and presumably to buy one of them on her behalf. So I had to do it. One motivator: if I bought her a phone, I would be able to talk to her on it. And that might help usovercome the inevitable loneliness, caused by living in a long-distance relationship, in totally different countries. But once I got to Singapore I found that everything was more expensive than I had anticipated, and I started to worry, that I didn't have enough money to buy the phone.
Another traveller averse to shopping and in particular, shopping for electronics, Nick on Bali Blog, wrote: "Today I took my friend Fauzi's advice and went to Toa Payoh to look at cell phones. I'm not a gadget person and don't care about ringtones, video clips or playing games. For me its purely a device to save time.
"Toa Payoh is an area of cheap housing, in high rise blocks, I know because I was here in 1984. [Short story: Arriving in Singapore late at night by bus from Malaysia, I was an inexperienced backpacker alone in a totally new environment. Still I had my tent and was determined to use it. Walking past a downtown park around midnight looking for a good spot to plant the thing, a local Indian, Mr Balasubramanian, told me it was impossible to camp in Singapore, due to the local laws and lack of space. Impossbile is not a word in my vocabulary, so I told him not to worry, I'd keep looking. Realizing I'd be arrested, he invited me to stay at his house in Toa Payoh...]
"Okay so Toa Payoh is a place with a local market area of small shops selling the usual array of gadgets and things that people want, including electrical bits and pieces. In short I needed a phone with good coverage worldwide, a camera, internet access and a built in GPS. Staff at one small shop recommended a Nokia Navigator. The guy helped install my old SIM card, load the address book, install a new 2GB memory card, case etc. Total cost including Sing tax was $785 Sing (US$515), a chunk of which I'll get back at the airport by showing the Customs I'm leaving with the device. So far the thing seems to works pretty good, just have to remember to pick it up everytime I put it down and try not to drop it in the toilet..."
 u s e d + h a n d p h o n e s I MET A NICE GIRL IN HO CHI MINH CITY VIETNAM, AND WE GOT TO KNOW EACH OTHER ON THE NET, AND EVENTUALLY, LUST TURNED TO LOVE, OF THE OBSESSIVE KIND. I was en route to another dose of tropical romance when, in the old trade center of Singapore, Nga asked me to pick up a cell phone for her there. This immediately threw me into a spin, because shopping is not my forte, especially shopping for cell phones, or hand phones as they called in Singapore (and the surrounding Malay world.) I didn't know Singapore that well, and I would only be staying in the city about 30 hours, before my flight to HCMC. As it turned out, finding the phone Nga wanted wasn't really the problem, I saw it on sale all over the place -- the problem was cash flow. And my particular, localised lack of it, and my fears that it would run out if I wasn't more careful. More on that later. First, if you are new to Singapore, or are a Singaporean looking for a handphone, where do you buy them? It should be said, that every residential area of Singapore has a few mobile phone shops -- even the area where I ended up staying, near the East Coast Parkway. Nick above recommended Toa Payoh, where Blazing the Used Handphone Specialist has six branches. Now used cellphones (or handphones, using the local lingo) may well be a Singaporean thing -- I have never heard or seen of them in Japan. Japanese people would never recycle an item as intimate as a cellphone -- that would be like buying used underwear. The legendary Danny Choo, on his way to conquering Japan, has written: "In Singapore, people change their phones all the time, usually within one or 2 years or even a few months! That is why there are lot of 2nd hand phone shops around the neighborhood that will greatly buy your phone and resell it." If you want to buy or sell a used handphone online, here are some Singapore centric sites: DikDekDikDek proclaims itself as the used handphone and gaming specialist of Singapore. If you want to trade in your handphone for cash, you can see the value of your model, here. At the time of writing, a used Nokia 1100 can earn you $25 (Singapore dollars), while a Motorola A1200 can make you $170. If you happen to have an O2 ZINC model, you can offload it at DikDek, for $400. LocantoLocanto is a free classifieds site where Singaporeans can offload their used handphones, as well as musical instruments, watercraft, toys and clothes and so on. The last time I checked, there was a brand new Apple iPhone 16GB going for $200, an unlocked Nokia N96 for $300, and a Samsung Armani G800 also for $300. If you see something you want to buy, just click on a link and you will be presented with a page of information including the seller's email address, and a map pinpointing their geographical location. If you have a phone you want to sell, you can post a free classified ad.

In 1952 SAS was the first airline in the world to introduce Tourist Class, a discounted ticket with certain conditions. The entire airline industry later followed suit. At the beginning of the 1980s it launched a new service concept for business travel, SAS EuroClass, and received the coveted Airline of the Year Award in 1984.
Today, SAS develops products and services based on the watchwords of simplicity, choice and care. Emphasis is placed on providing travel service on the customer's own terms. One indication of how much this is appreciated by customers is the fact that the SAS frequent flyer programme, EuroBonus, was voted best in the world in a ballot of some 84,000 frequent travellers worldwide for the third consecutive year in 1999.
With 21 million passengers a year SAS is one of the largest airlines in Europe and the 15th largest in the world. Each day SAS operates more than 1,000 flights. SAS was founded in the spirit of international cooperation. This same spirit was applied in May 1997 when SAS founded Star Alliance together with Air Canada, Lufthansa, United Airlines and Thai Airways International, offering convenient connections throughout an integrated global traffic system.

It's a tiny island of plants surrounded by a sea of carpet right in the middle of the departure terminal. For something less serene, let's wander upstairs and take in a free movie..." These writers have said it all, and better than I can say it myself. Changi Airport is cool. I can't wait until I make it down to the Singaporean island again, and enjoy a long layover at the airport. "Royal Bruneifs FFP, Royal Skies, has two elite categories above basic: Silver and Gold. It is one of few programs allowing members 100 percent of miles even for discounted Economy flights. Royal Skies frequent flyers get 125 percent of miles for discounted Business fares. Full-fare Business earns 150 percent. Qantasfs Frequent Flyer has a minimum points guarantee: members earn at least 1,000 points on Economy, and at least 1,250 on Business or First. Singapore Airlinesf KrisFlyer warns that certain categories of economy class tickets gare ineligible for mileage accrualh. "China Airlines Dynasty Flyer members donft earn mileage for tickets sold at discounts of 50 percent or more. Free, infant, barter, charter, excess baggage, airline and travel industry discount tickets donft earn miles either. Always check with the airline or travel agent whether your flight will accrue miles..."
6 -- A sports bar with a complicated payment system, which seems to involve the manager having to validate every purchase, and the signing of paperwork. This frequently results in the staff forgetting to give change to customers, and customers getting angry and storming off to find another bar (of which there are many, thankfully!) Anyway, you get the picture: it is one kick-ass airport, consistently voted the best in the world. You could spend the day in there, and still find things to do. Maybe start the day with a swim in the pool, a massage, check out the science museum, and then catch a cheesy movie in the cinema. By this time it is lunchtime so you could order some of of the huge cheese dosas and mango juice they serve in one of the Indian restaurants, or perhaps a round of sushi. Since it is now afternoon it is okay to start drinking, so I would hit the bars for a chance to meet fellow travellers waiting for their planes, or to watch a bit of TV (there are special viewing lounges set aside for CNN or BBC or the Discovery Channel, for example, as well as sports areas where you can watch boxing or the golf.) There are options all round, and plenty of beverages to be consumed. c h a n g i + a i r p o r t ULTIMATELY IT WAS BAD TIMING AND JUMPY NERVES, RATHER THAN A LACK OF CASH, WHICH PREVENTED ME FROM BUYING NGA'S PHONE. We just couldn't hook up, electronically. We just kept missing each other. After finding that Nokia she wanted near the Malay Cultural Village I went to an Internet cafe downtown and emailed her the price, saying I would await her instructions before purchasing. I mean, I didn't want to make a buy that she didn't want, especially with money so tight. check out Ho John Lee's blog. Unlike me, Ho John Lee has actually stayed in the transit airport (not my style -- I am more likely to be found sleeping outside on the concourse with plugs stuffed in my ears!) Ho John Lee says: Sony Style: Changi International Airport, Terminal 3.This is said to be the first retail outlet of its kind (in other words, a Sony retail outlet in an airport) in the world, and it is part of the whole swag of world firsts, which has recently being netted by Singapore's Changi Airport. The products at this airside shop have been selected according to a suitably travel related theme: if you are passing through, expect to find VAOI laptops, computer accessories, Cyber-shot digital cameras, Handycam, Playstation, Walkman audio equipment and Sony Ericsson mobile phones.
Vertu: Changi International Airport, Terminal 3. There is an important distinction between air miles or points, and gtierh or gstatush miles or points. Most FFPs work along similar principles. Air miles or points (earned by flying or buying services from FFP partners) make up the gcurrencyh you need to redeem tickets. Tier or status miles, on the other hand, collected through actually flying, allow you to progress to higher membership levels within your programme. The higher your level, the more benefits you get (typical perks include extra baggage allowance, dedicated check-in, the use of airport lounges, priority waiting lists, priority for upgrades and so on). Several programmes have three elite tiers above basic, although some, such as Malaysia Airlines and Thai Airways International, manage quite well with two. Members of Cathay Pacificfs FFP, Marco Polo Club, earn gClub Milesh that are used to determine their membership tier (20 club sectors or 30,000 miles for Silver, 40 sectors or 60,000 miles for Gold and 80 sectors or 120,000 miles for Diamond). All Marco Polo club members are also enrolled in the Asia Miles program (www.asiamiles.com), and it is Asia Miles that can be redeemed for flights or other awards. Here is where it becomes potentially confusing: Marco Polo members can also earn Club Miles when flying with other OneWorld partner airlines, while Asia Miles can also be earned when flying with Cathayfs 17 Asia Miles airline partners. Similarly, Qantas Frequent Flyer gstatush credits are separate from frequent flyer points. The number of status credits you earn is determined by cabin class and distance flown – the more credits you earn, the sooner you can achieve a higher status. Qantas Frequent Flyer, with Bronze (entry level), Silver, Gold and Platinum cards, is the largest FFP in the Australian region, with over four million members. Partner airlines include OneWorld alliance members such as Cathay Pacific and British Airways. AIR CHINA
"Use of the terminal 1 transit hotel gym, showers, and swimming pool are included in the room charge, but can also be purchased separately. The transit hotel gym has a fairly new Precor treadmill (was finally replaced this spring), a stationary cycle, and a few weight machines, and a rack of dumbbells. The shared gym showers are much nicer than the ones in the rooms. They're equipped with glass doors and soap dispensers, while the ones in the rooms have just a curtain, with a drain in the floor (so the whole bathroom floor gets wet), and little packets of soap (which are hard to open). s h o p + l i s t ONE OF THE OUTSTANDING ASPECTS OF CHANGI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS THE ABUNDANCE OF HIGH TECH GIZMOS WHICH CAN BE USED FREELY (AND FOR FREE) BY PASSENGERS. The e-hub on the second floor of the Transit Lounge, for example, VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) capability, or IP phone technology. In other words, you can simply touch the screen to: make a free local phone call (international calls can be paid for by credit card), send free SMS to your friends, send free e-mails with video and/or voice, send free e-cards with your photo, print your personalised luggage tags, read the latest news and so on. 3G Handphone Shop: 1 Maritime Square, #01-32 Harbour Front Centre, Singapore.n o k i a + e x p e r i e n c e CHANCE ENCOUNTER WITH SINGAPORE AIRPORT'S RESIDENT MAD BORN AGAIN XTIAN, AUGUST 2003: NOKIA CONCEPT STORES: Parkway Parade #B1-30/31/32; Suntec City #02-56/58/60; Causeway Point #03-24/25/26; Century Square #04-07/08; Wisma Atria #03-29/30/31.NOKIA SHOPS: #01-47 The Central; Level 1 K8 Funan DigitaLife Mall; #02-38 Great World City; #04-17 NTUC Hougang Mall; #02-21 Jurong Point; 53 Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 #01-27 AMK Hub; #02-30 Bishan Junction 8; #03-18 Tiong Bahru; #02-09 Vivo City CENTRAL: 3 Mobile @ Best Denki VivoCity #02-07; #05/01 Ngee Ann City Podium AWF Communications #01-26 People's Park Center CitiLink Group #02-92 Suntec City Mall; #02-001Q elife@Suntec Computation and Communication #01-45 Tiong Bahru Plaza Eng Ho Bee #02-12 Sim Lim Tower G-Force Network #03-20 Raffles City; #B2-63 Plaza Singapura; Hai Chew Electronics #01-53/54 Sim Lim Square Max Handphone and Electronic #01-81 People's Park Complex Max Yes #05-K30 Funan IT Mall Mohamed Mustafa & Samsuddin Co 145 Syed Alwi Road Mustafa Centre RoyalPlus Pacific #02-28 Sim Lim Tower; #04-24 Sim Lim Square Star 5 Technologies #02-001D elife@Suntec Tele-station VivoCity #01-23 EAST: 3 Mobile #01-02A Tampines Mart; Blk 211 New Upper Changi Road #01-747 Bedok Central; #05-22 Century Square 3 Mobile @ Best Denki #04-04/05 Century Square; #02-33 Parkway Parade Complex; ATLAS Telecom Blk 83 Marine Parade Central #01-556; Centel Corp #01-08 East Point CitiLink Group 315 Geylang Rd; G-Force Network #02-341 Loyang Point GSMLink Blk 214 Bedok North Street 1 #01-177; H2Hub Blk 208 Bedok Central 1 #01-679; Handphone Shop Blk 211 New Upper Changi Road #01-747 J-Force 810 Geylang Road #01-01 City Plaza OnLine Mobile Blk 201D Tampines Street 21 #01-1113 Planet Telecoms #05-05 Century Square Computation and Communcation #B1-15 White Sands Shopping Centre NORTH: 3 Mobile Blk 186 #01-426 Toa Payoh Central Arrow Communication Blk 163 Ang Mo Kio Ave 4 #01-412; Blk 709 Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 #01-2595 Best Denki #03-02 Junction 8 CitiLink Group Blk 103 Yishun Ring Road #01-51 Comms Equipments Blk 805 Hougang Central #01-114 G-Force Network #04-3B Bishan Junction 8 Handphone Shop Hougang Point Festival Market #01-05 i-Talk Blk 183 Toa Payoh Central #01-262 Jim Communications Blk 727 Ang Mo Kio Ave 6 # 01-4250 Mobile World Blk 809 Hougang Central #01-172 Multi-Channels Marketing #01-57 Hougang Point Novel Communications #01-19 Punggol Plaza OnLine Mobile Blk 846 Yishun Ring Road #01-3631 Planet Telecoms Blk 183 Toa Payoh Central #01-278; #B1-09 North Point; Block 713 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6 #01-4054 Sunday Telecommunications Pte Ltd Blk 186 Toa Payoh Central #01-438 V2 Communications #01-06 Thomson Plaza Novel Communications #B1-07 North Point WEST: 3 Mobile Blk 449 Clementi Ave 3 #01-263; Blk 727 Clementi West St 2 #01-240; #L2-16 IMM Building; Blk 501 Jurong West Street 51 #01-271 3 Mobile @ Best Denki #02-14/15/22/23 IMM Building Apple Telecom #02-02 Lot 1 Shopper's Mall Comms Equipments Blk 132 Jurong East St 13 #01-281 G-Force Network #03-11 West Mall; #01-15A Jurong Entertainment Centre Handphone Shop #01-47 Taman Jurong Shopping Centre J Com #02-37 Bukit Panjang Plaza Planet Telecoms #01-21 Jurong Entertainment Centre POD Blk 495 Jurong West Street 41 #01-114

The W900i is a high quality fully specified music player, phone, and imaging device capable of super-fast downloads of all types of multimedia – music, video and graphics. With the inception of the W900i, Sony Ericsson now boasts a collection of three fully functional Walkman phones with unique features that appeal to different consumers in the market. The two Walkman phones launched earlier this year include the award-winning W800i and the fun-filled W550i that offers a game console experience. gThe W900i, along with the rest of the Walkman phone family, will establish a new lifestyle habit of enjoying superb quality music and video and a full internet web experience on the move, from a single mobile device,h says Jack Tan, Branch Manager, Sony Ericsson Singapore. gIn our first UMTS Walkman phone, we have combined fast download speeds with superb sound quality and crystal clear 30-frames-a-second video recording and play-back in a really simple and easy to use device. The W900i will not only appeal as a music phone - its superb communications, multimedia and imaging functionality will appeal to all those wanting a true multimedia capable device. This is truly the perfect Christmas gift for your loved one who wants the latest mobile gadget with a stylish design and extensive features for work and play.h Music transfer and download One of the most appealing features of the W900i is how easy it is to import, transfer, play and manage music files. Tracks can be imported from a variety of sources, either over-the-air direct to the phone if it supports an available operator music download service, or via a PC. Transferring digital music files from a PC to the phone is a simple edrag and dropf and the W900i is also fully compatible with user-copied content from all leading music management software packages. The W900ifs large internal 470MB user free memory provides space for between 120 and 240 songs. The storage capacity can be easily increased by inserting a Memory Stick PRO Duo, which is currently available in retail outlets at up to 2GB, providing space for up to 1,000 tracks. Music files can be stored in all the key formats: MP3, AAC or AAC+, MIDI, WAV and XMF. Functionality and design The versatile swivel design makes it easy to multi-task between the W900ifs many functions, a feature which gives the phone an advantage over dedicated music players. The direct music buttons get the user swiftly into the Walkman player where it is possible to scroll through play lists, artists or individual songs. Users who do not want to miss calls while they are listening to music will love the fact that the phonefs ringtone cuts into the audio and pauses the track while the user takes the call. The phone swivels open automatically with the lightest of touches, revealing a large keypad. Virtually all functions can be performed with the phone closed - users can read messages or search through their music library without opening the phone. Imaging and multimedia More than a fully featured music player, the W900i is a highly advanced imaging and multimedia device with broadband-fast download speeds; smooth, responsive browse capabilities; and a large, 2.2 inch QVGA 262K TFT screen, one of the brightest ever seen on a mobile phone. The 2 Megapixel, autofocus camera with LED flash- or picture-light, is perfect for capturing priceless moments. Sony Ericssonfs dual fronted design, allows the camera to be operated with both hands in a horizontal position for maximum stability. The camera also shoots video at up to 30fps (frames per second), double the speed of most conventional imaging phones and the playback quality threshold for television. With the supplied Adobe PC software, pictures and videos can be easily imported to a PC as soon as the phone is connected using the fast USB connection. They can then be edited, printed and shared using the easy-to-use and powerful Adobe software, and videos can be played back using Apple QuickTime Player. As an entertainment device, the W900i exploits the UMTS-delivered capabilities to the full, delivering fast and smooth download and browsing of video, games, sound and graphics. The high performance 3D Java gaming engine is put to the test with the embedded Asphalt Urban GT 3D from Gameloft, where users can experience the thrills of extreme racing at the wheel of the ultimate sports cars. Accessories The W900i is the first Sony Ericsson phone to be supplied with a Stereo Portable Handsfree HPM-80 with remote control, allowing the user to operate the Walkman player without removing it from their pocket. A USB cable and Disc2Phone PC software for transfer and management of music files are also included in the box. The W900i is now available in stores island-wide at the following recommended retail prices: With a standard two-year mobile plan -S$1,098 Without plan - S$1,198 Best Denki Co., Ltd.

SO, I FAILED IN MY MISSION TO BUY NGA A HANDYPHONE IN SINGAPORE -- I HOPE SHE FORGIVES ME SOMEDAY. To make matters worse, as I was retiring late that night at my hotel near Malay Village, setting my keitai alarm to get me up at 5am or something so I could make my early morning flight, the unthinkable occurred -- my keitai died. Maybe I overexerted it with all that texting Nga during the day, and taking photos around town. Maybe it was just getting old or perhaps the battery powered juuden recharger I bought from a Tokyo convenience store in 2006 didn't work any more -- whatever. My phone was out for the count, and it was only Day One. I seared with regret at the realization I wouldn't be able to take any photos in Vietnam -- my phone being my camera too (not a particularly powerful one, however, being only 1.9 megapixel). In the end, one chilly evening in
