    Storage Solutions Support for Intel SSD in India

    I bought a 120 GB Intel 320 SSD retail pack from amazon.com. I installed it on my desktop and loaded the OS. It was working fine for a couple of days, then it just stopped working. There is just a blank screen. The drive does show up in the BIOS, but doesn't boot. I tried repairing the OS by...

    The Samsung Tab Thread

    With the price reduction, I think the tab is quite a bargain. I am very seriously considering selling my Galaxy S and getting a tab. Of course, I will not be able to use it as my primary phone, so will use a Nokia for that. I am planning to borrow it from a friend and try it for a week before I...

    Airtel DTH moving to new satellite - Lot more channels including new HD channels

    Does anyone know how long they will retain the old satellite? My flat is west facing and our apartment does not allow for individual dishes on the roof (that was one of the reasons that I went for Airtel). Do I have the option of continuing with the current satellite or else I have to sell the...

    Ipod touch battery replacement

    Yeah, but I'm hoping that I can get someone to replace it for 1-1.5 K. While it is far too slow by modern standards, it still makes for a good gaming device to give to children. Anyone that can help?

    Ipod touch battery replacement

    I have a 3 year old 1G ipod touch that has slowly seen a decrease in battery life and now hardly lasts for 20 minutes. I went to the Imagine store to check the Apple battery replacement program. Not only does it cost a bomb (4300 rupees), but there was a small dent on the ipod which they said...

    Samsung Galaxy S2 Pictured

    Beware of buying a Samsung phone. They lose interest once their next phone comes along. Omnia HD i890 and Galaxy S owners know what I am talking about.

    The Samsung Galaxy S thread

    After seeing the crappy Airtel 3G plans, I moved my BSNL SIM to the Galaxy S. Unfortunately for me, BSNL's signal is not the strongest in my office, so it is constantly switching from 3.5 to 3G to EDGE as I move around the building. This is taking a toll on the battery life, I used to end up...

    The Samsung Galaxy S thread

    Second that, I was initially very sceptical about updating with Odin as I didn't have the time to spare to research and fix things in case things went wrong, but I finally took the plunge yesterday. As long as you have the 3 button download mode working, you won't cause any permanent damage and...

    Airtel IPTV - It roxxxx!!!!!

    Airtel iptv is launched in Bangalore and they were making a big splash over the weekend. They held a roadshow in my apartment. Impressions - Picture Quality is fairly good - I had heard that the lag is very bad, but I could not see it in practice. Channel changes were quite fast (1-2 sec), a...

    Concerning Nokia N 85 Body/Casing

    If you go to authorized nokia care, you will get fleeced. I was quoted over 2K for my n82's keypad cover where the paint had chipped off. I would check SP Road in Bangalore (or the equivalent market in Delhi) for alternatives

    The Samsung Galaxy S thread

    I had quite a scare updating the SGS to Froyo last night. I had rooted and installed the OCLF previously, but for some reason, it was not giving me the option to uninstall the lag fix through the app. So, I though, what the hell and de-rooted the app. Hooked the phone up to Kies, it detected...

    Poll on Nokia N8

    I think Nokia has taken a short sighted approach and crippled it in a number of ways 1. Processor : A 680 MHz processor is definitely not good enough for a flagship phone in 2010. Atleast, if it was based on the A8 architecture (like what was used in the N900), it would have been acceptable...

    Samsung Wave or Netbook..........

    Unfortunately, if you wait for Adam, you will keep waiting. Doesn't seem to have a firm date for release. I'd say that if your primary use is movies/games, an ipod touch is a better option than wave. It's got a bigger screen and is far superior to the wave for gaming. A netbook may be more...
