mySQL msSQL syntax
Written by techieDan on February 13, 2008 – 12:39 ammySQL and msSQL has a similar SQL syntax but not the same. To have a grasp of what does this mean, let’s have an exercise to get 10 rows from a table with mySQL.
select * from [tablename] limit 10
Now if you were to run this sql query above on msSQL server you’ll either get a wrong sql query or query not able to compute. So alternative for msSQL is by entering this query instead.
select top 10 * from [tablename]
Simple?? Yes, that’s all there is to it. To those that need further questions answered, there are bound to be helpful people posting or me trying to help people out.

G810 Samsung Wifi GPS
Written by techieDan on February 9, 2008 – 11:24 amI am a ardent Samsung fan after like 5 years++ using Nokia as my leading brand for cellphones. Well this sudden change was due to the design and a sudden change of the old style nokia feel. Comparing to the Nokia N95, Samsung came up with the G810 as a challenger to that model.
Few words to say though, G810 has great specs for such a phone but in terms of time, it has fallen short due to the time it takes to unveil it’s new phone. Currently only available to the market in Europe, it will take some time before it hits the Asian market. Here are the specifications for the Samsung G810.

It’ll take some time for the G810 to challenge Nokia, but until then if you’re into PDA phone and can afford it, get the Samsung I900 though!

Narrow Power Plug
Written by techieDan on February 3, 2008 – 1:44 pmFor someone who’s into technical stuffs, making sure my wires are hidden and at hard to reach places is definitely a must. I have to squeezed my hand thru the back to get to them.

Just be careful when handling with electricity.
