did it again! It seems every product they make is packed with “WOW” factors. I upgraded to the latest 3.0 firmware as it was released today, the downloading, backup and upgrading took awhile, but the end result was well worth the wait, in fact, my feels like a brand new phone!

One of the coolest new 3.0 feature by far is the “Find My ”. For subscribers, if you ever miss place your , you can use the web interface to see where you left it (cell tower triangulation?) and send a message and alarm to the phone so whoever pick it up can contact you… At the worst case, you can remotely wipe out all the data! That’s badass!

Well, I did a test, the triangulation took a minute or two, and the result was surprisingly accurate! My phone displayed the message and alarm I sent almost instantaneously. I didn’t have the guts to remote wipe my data, I will just take ’s words for it, I am sure it works. ;-)

Another year, another , and new to this year, the date 7/11 has gained another important recognition — ’s birthday! (you probably thought I was going to say launch huh? heehee)

First, let’s talk about the … no this is not our anniverary, which is 9/16; 7/11 has always been special to Vivian and me as it marks the first day we started dating back in 2002. That makes today the 6th year !! Woo-hoo! GO US! The long journey we had together led to our marriage, which we are still receiving wonderful blessings and wishes from friends around the world:

“看到你们俩已经喜结连理,乐得我差点跳起来,第一反应就是拨通了selina(蔡蔡)的电话:你还记得那个佳英么?他和VIV修成正果了哦~~真的太好了呢!”
– 寿寿 @ 2008.07.11

7/11 vs. 9/16, although we treasure both dates, Vivian and I have always favored 7/11 a bit more, since that was the date we set things in motion and tied our faiths together… and that’s the “real” we’ll be celebrating going forward. Surprised?

Six years, that’s a long time, 1/5 of my entire life so far! In the past six years, we have grown so much and a lot of things has happened. During the six years, I have changed my jobs three times and eventually we both left the corporate world and called ourselves “small business owners” (that’s another story entirely); we have adopted two cats, two dogs and four turtles; we have moved five times in total and lived on two continents… Only one thing remained constant — the faith we have in our relationship, we’re ready to celebrate the 7/11 together, in many many years to come… Love you bb!

Now, ’s birthday! Yup our Shiba is turning 1 today! First year has been rough for him, the poor thing was hit by a car, broke his right rare hip, but recovered, fully! He also had to endure more than a month wearing a cone around his head in order for his eye infection to heal, and that also healed very nicely. not only turned out to be a handsome little Shiba, he is a smart little fellow too! From sit, stay, roll, spin to high-5 and bark, he has a whole bag of treat to showoff (when he is in good mood, of course, afterall, he is a !)

Congratulation BaoBei!! (the name Vivian likes to call him) Happy Birthday!!!

Oh, one more thing, wondering how we are celebrating today? Well, we have been sitting here in line outside of the AT&T store since 4am for the new , consider it as a gift we give to each other… and we’ll probably wrap up the day with a traditional sushi meal like we do on every . ;-)
