Revellers attack cops at Gurney Drive

PENANG: The New Year Eve celebration at Gurney Drive turned unruly again when a group of revellers attacked the police with empty cans.
At least 15 people were arrested at the scene for hurling spray cans at police on their patrol rounds. Another three people were arrested for setting up makeshift stalls to sell artificial snow.
The incident, which took place 15 minutes before New Year, sparked off when police were called in to control a situation after an alleged fight had broken out at the site near Gurney Plaza.
When police arrived, the unruly crowd started to behave rowdily and hurled empty spray cans of artificial snow at the police.
Some of the cans hit the police and their motorcycles. The boos and verbal abuses hurled at the police only made things worse.
The problems apparently began after a group of cyclists, comprising mostly teenagers, were sprayed with artificial snow when they passed Gurney Plaza.
Two of them even had their bicycles snatched before the revellers standing on both rows sprayed the bicycles with artificial snow.
Police nearby were called in to control the crowd.
George Town OCPD Asst Comm Azam Abd Hamid said the people were arrested for vandalism and mischief.
“We have brought them back to Patani Road police station for further investigation. They have caused public disorder,” he said.

Imitate (Pirate) Nokia N95 Phone From China

China manufacturer technology is good, and I feel respect to their engineers! This is the first "real and workable" pirate Nokia mobile phone I seen, and it really work, with imitate to Nokia Symbian phone software graphical user interface.

See the first photo I captured with my lousy Panasonic DMC-LS2 macro mode, I think you should be able to tell this is Nokia N95. Pay attention to the N95 LCD display, the standby screen is Nokia latest standby interface where you could use the directional navigation pad to browse between the shortcut icon of SMS, Bluetooth, WAP, Calendar and etc.




Third photo, with the N95 keypad slide out!! Wow, again, are you able to tell is this N95 or pirate N95? Watch carefully the icon of the main menu, the design is "almost" identical to Nokia style, but not as detail and well-design per original Nokia N95.


Rear view of the pirate N95, it got camera with white LED flash, awesome?


Side view of the imitate N95, it got camera quick snap shortcut button and volume button. Oh no, now I realize I forget to snap another side of the N95 where it got flash memory card slot, USB connector for link to PC, and 3.5mm headphone female connector.







I tested and it got bluetooth feature. The camera is working too, I took a few photos with it, the quality of the photo is okay!


The intention of this photo is to show you the quality of the LCD display. Not bad, the color is 16-bit and backlight is good too. The menu icons are non-animated static photo only. I suspect they modify from the Symbian S40 firmware, because the icon and functionality is almost identical to S40 firmware.


Another close view of the "16-bit color" LCD display again. When display high complexity tone color, it a bit of washout. Anyway, it not as serious as photo show below, actually it just little washout and if not pay attention may be can't realize it at all.


Okay, that all the photos I took for this imitate Nokia N95. My bro's friend said it sell for RM650+ (bulk purchase may reduce price), and "imported" from China. If you interested, mmmm, I'll advice you don't buy it, the functionality is pretty okay, with all the multimedia (video, photo, music, camera, game and etc), bluetooth, SMS, MMS, WAP, Calendar and multi-language support. The quality is below par, the keypad tactile feedback is so so (and feel like won't last long), and the plastic quality is pretty bad. If you really want to own N95 (with minus Wifi and GPS features) with limited budget, then this is the best product for you. :P
