Assorted thing.. Apple and VoIP
Since MatMat is not here, I've got more time to sit in front of computer 
, but it is not in a healthy way. I now usually sleep at 5-6am, then wake up at 4-5pm, and outside this period, I am glued into the seat! Afterall, many things have been happened after MatMat went to Swiss.
First of all, Apple's new iMac. Honestly, I don't really care their new ipod, they have been like pushing iPod for many years, pretty much ignored our Mac user. I know they are going to switch to Intel CPU very soon and no point to release any big update. But I NEED a new laptop/notebook very soon, I am moving back to Hong Kong, I can't bring my PowerMac and Apple Display with me! I was hopping they would update the PowerBook, as it is overdue already! On the other hand, they don't update the Mac Mini, some lucky people will receive a "better than advertisement" spec Mac Mini, but I am usually unlucky and get the old stock. No way I would buy a Mac Mini in this period.
Oh, come back to topic. iMac, I particularly like their new Front Row software, its intuitive is much better than Media Centre and very user oriented, the embed camera is just a gimmick to push more sales, I am not really interested in that. But thinner, more powerful and most important, bundled with good software, thumb up to Apple!
And while I am reading the ""live"" news update from Apple that night, I was playing with my HKBN's 2B once again. This time, someone mentioned about they can access the b21.hkbntel.net web page, then I feel dumb, I tested so many hosts and why don't I try the basic port 80! Shame on me, then I load up my PC's HKBN client and do the packet sniffing again, this time, to my wonder, it works! I have no idea why, probably I am just lucky!
Anyway, got all the info I need and found I only missing the Authentication header, and I added "Auth" to always. Yap, it work on my Mac. I tried to call a few Hong Kong local hotlines, it works, very clear, very good quality! The next step is getting it to work in Sipura adapter, no problem! Work right away when all parameters in! Will talk more about it later!
