A good and cheap netbook?

Posted: 28 Jan 2012 01:14 PM PST

a 20K laptop is unlikely to give you 5-6 hours of battery life. this is what netbooks are for... low processing units that deliver long battery life.

I already have a Sony Bravia, looking for a change now! I know it sounded silly but certainly I don't want another Bravia. :p

LG Spectrum

When I reviewed the Nitro, I called it the best LTE phone available on AT&T, and the Spectrum is every bit as good on paper: 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor, 1GB of RAM, a 4.5-inch IPS display, LTE connectivity, and an 8-megapixel camera.

Man. LG's Android UI looks so bad compared to native Android ICS. :|


Sony Xperia S

Still, their loss is connectivity's gain, as the Ericsson-branded (for now, at least) phone packs quad-band GSM / EDGE, 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 UMTS and HSPA, RFID, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, 802.11 WiFi b/g/n and GPS. ANT+ is also included,

In related news, thanks to a post on the company's Facebook wall we know that the unit will be clad in an "anti-stain shell," -- hinting at a similar nano-coating to what we've seen on the Droid Razr. We've also heard rumors of a fast-charging mode that'll provide an hour's usage with just ten minutes of cable-time.

Airtel Broadband Freak Show #airtelbroadbandsucks

2mbps plans as minimum before FUP does not really change anything if they are going to stick with FUPs ranging between 3GB and 150GB. 3GB costs around 650 bucks for god sake.

----------

just had another major annoyance with the FUP message.

i opened up around 15 links from a web page and closed it.

noticed after a while that around 5 of those pages ended up getting redirected to the FUP message.

and since the link was changed, i lost the original target. :|


Samsung Galaxy Nexus launch and pricing in India (Rumors for now)

Posted: 28 Jan 2012 12:07 PM PST

none at the moment. nexus s is running nicely with ICS. there is a lag here and there. but i can live with it for a couple of months at least.

if anyone here is still interested in a nexus s running official ics build and is willing to offer me a good deal :D i might be interested in selling it off! ;)


Best Data card to use while travelling to Rajasthan & Hyderabad

Posted: 28 Jan 2012 11:49 AM PST

BSNL 3G is available all India .Not to worry. data Roaming free and no extra charge. If you recharge a 3G prepaid data pack, it will debit from that and not from main balance.
Foe rajasthan and AP even idea 3G is ok.
if you get a sim, you can use in your phone too.
Huawei Data cards are the best.
If you buy operater branded {like Aircel,Airtel etc) data card, it will be locked.
you can buy in ebay or other online stores Huawei E173, E1750 etc models around rs 1250-1500,(unlocked )
after you land here, ask here some one will give ebay /online store link to buy the data card.
Net cafe's are there every where .rs 20-40/hour if you can not get sim.
