  1. Movie:

    I bought the canon Legria200 for my daughter and son in law. I think it is excellent. It is card based (only) and excellent.

    Still:

    I recently bought a Canon Powershot SX120IS and love it. the SX20IS is even greater but then costs about 10k more. To me penlight cell operation is a must.


  2. Can you logout of this ID and click "Delete My Cookies" link at the bottom of page and then try with old ID?

    Thanks.

    I had tried earlier before cribbing with no success. Did it again and it worked. Now I will reset my password to a more humanly understandable one


  3. Quite unreliable. Let me illustrate

    1. My daughter was returning from the UK. Flight was late. So I sent her an sms (her Airtel lifetime number)hoping that by the ack I will know when the flight has landed. Delivery & Ack next day. I was quite surprised when she called, and we know.

    2. She had a Tata Indicom in Delhi - acks never came.

    3. My son has a Reliance (CDMA) in Manipal. Mail gets delivered fast, acks may take an hour.

    4. Reliance - BSNL totally random (I have both)


  4. I will take Nokia any day.

    Nokia maps is junk. I have a 5320 (5800 minus WiFi, and Video Calls and a few other bits). Nokia could never lock on to the GPS. Switched to Google Maps - no sweat. A friend in Chennai with a 5800 had same problem. Also, navigation etc. on Nokia is not free. We are sticking to Google Maps.

    Also, off topic -- some time back I got a sms regarding a free App to make the sensor into a spirit level / tiltometer. Have lost it. Any updates here.


  5. The only problem is that as usual BSNL will take ages to recognise these numbers. My daughter in Kolkata is 9088.... I cannot call her on BSNL - Please check the number you have dialled or This number does not exist. Always engaged on Fixed! No problems with Reliance. Also she can call with no problems.

    I raised the matter with a DGM level person when he was here, he could not dial on his mobile as well - result she got a call from him checking on the problem and then Zilch.

    So those getting these new numbers must make sure they have no BSNL callers!


  6. I have this mode3l for the past 4 months or so. Excellent machine.I simply love it and it does have a genuine 8+ hour battery life. I have bought a second one for my daughter-in-law.

    Firstly, it is Win 7 but 32 bit.

    The one I have is Core Solo. i.e. single core. I hear that Acer have gone dual core now, but have withdrawn the 3810 from the Indian Market.4810 and 5810 continue.


  7. I think BSNL has been reusing numbers for ages. This was why I kept on getting calls for the previous holder for quite some time.

    I am all for a three digit STD code followed by a 7 digit number, i.e. 10 digits in all. I am sure this will accommodate places like Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata etc. who all have two digit STD codes at the moment!


  8. As we know the manufacturers have agreed on a universal power connector for all mobiles. I understand that it is a sub-miniature D connector (similar to the USB connector on some brands).

    My questions are:

    1. Exact details of the connector / specifications?

    2. Which vendors / models already have these?

    3. When do these connectors become mandatory?


  9. Saw the advt in the TOI about a Samsung Handset for both Reliance & Tata. It mentione something like an OMH SIM card being used.

    What is this card? How does it differ from the RUIM card? Is it specific to Samsung? What is its availability and pricing?

    Does it indicate a trend that CDMA will become as open as GSM?
