Nokia E72 is a NOT for business
In: Technology
17 Apr 2010I am hugely disappointed with my Nokia E72. This device is anything but a business phone as Nokia claims. The worst piece of software on the phone? – Email!! The WiFi connectivity sucks! The stupid phone keeps asking me to choose an access point every five minutes! Can’t you remember my preferred Access point damn [...]
Read this entry on Digital Inspiration – Microsoft will show a screento its users in EU to chose a different browser than IE! WTF! Why in the world should a company be forced to advertise its competitors’s products on its own product? And that too in a hard core capitalist economy! Rival browser makers are [...]

Just launched 2pl.us – a URL shortening service. Why one more URL shortener? Agree URL shorteners are dime a dozen. But we felt there was a need for one more. And 2plus has some unique benefits to offer. Since its the latest one, there are one and two letter aliases available for grabs while most [...]

27 Jan 2009I am planning a trip to Delhi, Agra, Simla, and Manali in February. Around Feb 14 – my second wedding anniversary. We had decided to go by our own and not thorough any tour operator. I have booked all the hotels, train, plane tickets online. Sites like TripAdvisor and IndiaMike Travel Forum helped me a [...]
iPhone in India, is it for you?
In: India|Technology
22 Aug 2008Indian bloggers can’t have enough of the iPhone! Every blog that I’ve been reading regularly is talking about it and crying fowl over its pricing. iPhone is priced at 31K and 36K for 8Gb and 16Gb versions respectively. Apparently iPhone costs the most in India. People have been asking who’s going to buy it? iPhone [...]
Firefox 3 is out – downlaod now!
In: Technology|Web 2.0
18 Jun 2008Just saw that Firefox 3 is out. I tried to access Mozilla.com and firefox.com but it seems down because of the heavy traffic. I managed to download it from Downlaod.com. Download Firefox 3. The installation was fast, it checked my existing add-ons for compatibility and downloaded the updated versions of ones that were not compatible. [...]

It’s been a couple of days since I am using this new notebook of mine and here’s a little review of its performance so far. Standard specifications: Processor: AMD Turion 64 X2 [...]
I installed Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise on a computer today and then tried to install D-Link DWL G122 USB WiFi adapter with the drivers that came with the adapter. It didn’t work. Searching for a driver on D-Link’s site turned futile because D-Link has since discontinued the product. Some search on Google and I [...]
