Emperor’s no clothes (Singapore)

So I was at another of these online media outreach sessions where a phone company is showing off its up-coming phone. I am already jaded with this stuff. Most of the agency staff and the actual company staff use the phone that cannot be mentioned” as their main phone and we are supposed to believe their superlative claims about their brand. Sometimes I feel that a lot of modern business works on this facade.

Also, it looks like anytime they will figure out what my actual blog readers are and I will be kicked out. So I am going to stop the rant, and go on listening to how this phone will destroy everyone else. I do like the colours of this phone.
