Cellular Tower Study Debunks Radiation Myth

the industry surely works extra hard to prove that it is just a myth that the radiation are harmful to our bodies.

sundirect really is a worst service when is comes to customer service. they made a satellite change and broadcast a message as to contact them as they will send an engineer for disc reallignment

but iam contqctiong them from 2 months, every time they create a call request number and mention as will be contaxcted in 3 days, but no one reallybothers to come. i paid 2 months of charity money for sun direct......

still my issue is not sorted, if any one thinks that its cheap, yes you are right, but if u have issues with service, remeber the initial amount you pay is wasted, they willl not help....service really is freeaky... better to throw the dish in in a ditch

We just got D2H a week back. They said we would get all channels free for the next 3 months. But Ten cricket doesn't show ! There's just a bar on the channel asking to subscribe. Are all channels not free in the starting 3 months ?

Don't know what speeds you get in your region.
But, I think in terms of speed, Reliance beats all others.
From, What I have experienced on my and my friends' mobile
Aircel - 10-12KB/s
Airtel - 25-26KB/s
Reliance - 34-35KB/s (nearly 44-45KB/s when you are around their headquarters :P )
And in Reliance you get 2.5GB of usage @ Rs.99 ( CC told me its 3GB :confuse: )

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy 3 i5801 mobile. This is my first Samsung mobile, I was a Nokia fanboy, but the sluggish Symbian OS made me think again when I was planning for a new mobile. As you all know, Android powered devices have a very bad battery life. So I was thinking about buying a spare battery for my phone. I was browsing through the Samsung website to find out whether there is a battery charger for charging spare batteries ( My Dad had a Samsung SGH-X820 which had a spare battery as well as spare battery charger made by Samsung). I know there are chinese chargers available which can charge any mobile battery (popularly known as 'Kekda Charger' in Mumbai), but I don't trust these products as it may damage the battery easily.

There were many models of battery chargers available on their Indian website, viz. BCH180, ABCC700, ABCC720, BCH535 and BCH292, but the space under 'Supported phones' were blank. Therefore I used their 'Contact us' link to put a query. After two days I got a reply from Samsung telling me to visit the nearest Authorized Service Centre to clear this query. I can't understand why do I need to visit Service Center for such a simple query. So I called up Samsung Customer Care on their toll free number. I explained them everything and they transferred the line to the so called 'Technical Department'. They guy who answered my call was amazed to hear about this. I think he was hearing about this for the first time. He also told me to visit Service Centre for this query. Finally I asked them the telephone number of the Service Centre, and called them up. As expected, they said they have never heard about any battery chargers available by Samsung. They don't even have the battery of this phone available with them. My query still remains....

So my experience with Samsung Customer Care was not so good. Their website too is not updated. The people handling the customer care doesn't have enough information for this simple query. Hope that they will enhance the quality of services rendered by them, and also update their website.

umm..met one of the contractors in greater noida who is is executing the project for Jaypee..as per him it will be pretty tough to finish it on time..he was complaining abt on-site inspections and insistence on work practices that dont suit india viz. compulsory helmets..acc to him it was impossible for labour to carry tashla's of cement on their heads with helmet's on

I think they do pay these charges to music companies.
I think thats why they charge Rs.15 or so per song

Local ISPs do give cheaper net but if you have problem in connection after 8PM or so, you HAVE to wait till next morning till 11AM or so to register a complaint and 1-2hrs. after that to rectify your problem.

Okay found that T-Mobile software use *99***2# *99***3# and *99***4# to connect .
Try to connect from T-Mobile software first, then after connection is successfully made, check the number it used for making connection from dialup properties.
and use that number in Mobile Connect. it will connect.


I'm posting my observation as it is coming to me. But at least connection is made :P

Unfortunately I was then with BSNL and now with Airtel!!

Happy New Year 2011 from my side too..... :)

This channel is free to air and available in chennai with out any set-top box or dth. The AV quality is awesome. I watched Transporter in 5.1 surround sound exp. Hope they air it freely.

I always wonder why Dish TV has such a confusing Regional ala-carte package for its customers....

I am a subscriber for Dish TV South Platinum...and really face difficulty when I have to choose all those channels from the ala-carte packages...



For a subsciber from Kerala, who prefers Malayalam Channels, why they have Malayalam 1 and Malayalam 2 packages...and they both have Telugu Channels included in that..sounds really funny...wonder maybe the guys sitting at Dish TV don't know about the languages....same is the case with other South Indian Languages....

Why they can't club all Malayalam Channels in one package and offer....so if somebody from Tamil as the base package wants to opt for Malayalam, he will get both Tamil and Malayalam complete channels at an extra cost....now its confusing between Tamil 1, Tamil 2, Malayalam 1, Malayalam 2.....wonder they will keep on increasing the numbers... :o

In spite of several mails to Dish TV Customer Care....I never got any positive reply from them....except those friendly automated replies from their system......:wall:
