    Review Anyone heard about www.akosha.com ?

    The thread is in the wrong place for sure. Anyway, I have used Akosha and was not terribly impressed. In the end the problem got resolved with letters etc. I wrote myself, and the draft they gave me for the consumer petition was very poorly written and replete with grammatical mistakes etc. I...

    Any advantages of a wireless modem+router over a wireless router and separate modem?

    ^ @babhishek: Any reasons why? @groove: Buffalo's stock firmware is good, but DD-WRT is much better e.g. it automatically logs the amount of data used every month etc. that can be handy. Plus it's a LOT more user friendly. Any feedback as to whether it helps improve online gaming to have a...

    Any advantages of a wireless modem+router over a wireless router and separate modem?

    Currently I have the a D-link modem and a Buffalo wireless router. I have been thinking about getting another router to extend the WiFi coverage in my house using WDS. Looking around I found a decent Buffalo modem+router at a decent price. But the drawback is that it doesn't have DD-WRT (as...

    Android phone having best camera in 10-15K budget

    Hello all, am looking for a phone for a (female) relative who basically is not looking for anything fancy, but it must be an android (2.3 or higher) phone and must have a great camera. Battery life is not too important but should last the day with moderate usage. Questions:- 1. Q: Budget...

    laptop with 8hr battery

    In case anyone else is looking for something similar, Samsung seems to have just released a new model in their 3 series: np350u2b-a0ain. I saw it in Nehru Place and it's awesome. Super light and great specs - Core i5, 4GB RAM, 1TB hdd, 8+ hours battery life, 12.5" screen. Price is still iffy...

    laptop with 8hr battery

    Look at Samsung. I checked out a couple of models at their showroom, and they really give you bang for your buck. Will give you great battery life too. Of course the Thinkpad x220 kicks their ass, but it's also twice the price (literally). If you can afford the x220, go for it with your eyes...

    Any suggestions for a 12-13" NON-netbook laptop around 30-35k?

    ^78K is a bit beyond my budget!! (and to be honest, I would rather buy the x220 and pimp it out with a 24-hour battery for that cost!) As I said, I am looking to spend about 30-35k, maybe a bit more. Also, I don't need an i7. Even i5 is slightly more than for my needs, but I would rather get...

    Any suggestions for a 12-13" NON-netbook laptop around 30-35k?

    Hey, thanks for your suggestions. My thing is that the couple of time I have ordered refurbished products, I had issues, and so not really looking forward to going down that way. Added to that we've generally had too many issues with tech products in the recent past, so really want piece of...

    Any suggestions for a 12-13" NON-netbook laptop around 30-35k?

    Thanks for the suggestions! In an ideal world with no budget constraints ( ) I would go for the Lenovo Thinkpad X220. But since that is not an option....! What do you think about this?: http://www.samsung.c...tail&returnurl= I have never used a Samsung laptop before, but a similar model...

    Any suggestions for a 12-13" NON-netbook laptop around 30-35k?

    No, but preferably. Am willing to consider lesser options. Battery life is "up to 3 hours" - deal breaker! :-(
