When Smart relaunched its mobile payment platform and dubbed it as “bagong pambayad ng bayan,” I thought it’s the best time to have my old, beaten, and recently misplaced Smart Money card replaced.
I have been using Smart Money to pay (via mobile-to mobile transfer) for goods I buy on ebay and to sell cellphone load to my friends and officemates.
A friendly customer care representative at Shangri-La mall assisted me in placing my replacement request, and I received my new Smart Money card after around a week. The first thing I noticed was that it didn’t look like the one being advertised, and it had a MasterCard Electronic logo instead of MasterCard. The last two digits of my Smart Money account number also changed.

Makapalm’s mobile version is now powered by Carrington Mobile for WordPress. To add Admob advertisements on its mobile site, I edited three files under the carrington mobile theme folder:
- /posts/posts-default.php for ad on the homepage
- /single/single-default.php for ad on individual blog posts
- /pages/pages-default.php for ad on pages

While we in Asia have yet to hear about Palm Pre’s availability here, its maker has introduced the second webOS phone — the Palm Pixi.
An update on Palm’s official blog introduced the Pixi:
“All the power of Palm webOS — including multitasking activity cards, Palm Synergy, intuitive notifications, and universal search — will soon be available in a striking new form factor. Palm Pixi — due on the Sprint network in time for the holidays — is Palm’s thinnest phone ever.”
This appears to be the same device previously called Palm EOS, Castle, Pixie, Mini Pre, Palm Pre Mini, and Pre Lite.
