    Reliance offering 4mbps Unlimited without FUP for 1100?

    Bit the bullet and requested an upgrade to Thunder Zoom 699 plan i.e. 2mbps. Took a day longer than the promised 48 hours but the upgrade was completed as of midnight on the 31st. Pleased to say that the speeds are actually more than advertised and the ping seems to have improved significantly...

    Nexus 4 official: Android 4.2, Snapdragon S4 Pro, 4.7-inch 1280 x 768 display

    25k for the 8gb version would really suck! LG has a chance here to really rake in the moolah if they release it on par with US/Google pricing. Hope they take it. Even a 1-2k premium would be ok considering that it will have warranty.

    Partition shrink screwed Windows boot..

    Hi, I installed Windows 8 on a blank 1TB HDD 2 days ago (UEFI boot on GPT hdd, single 1TB partition). Once everything was setup I shrunk the partition to 100gb using EaseUS Partition Manager. This totally screwed up the Windows 8 bootloader. It refuses to boot into Win 8. I have tries using...

    Reliance offering 4mbps Unlimited without FUP for 1100?

    One of their salespeople came to my door today regarding these plans. Was pleasantly surprised to hear about the new plans, especially the 2mbps for Rs. 700. I'm currently on the Rs. 649 plan (600kbps day, 1mbps night) and no FUP. An extra Rs 50 for twice the speed seems too good to pass up. My...

    Storage Solutions OCZ Vertex 4 @ 8k! Good deal?

    Hi. Received this in the mail earlier today: Is the 128GB Vertex 4 a good buy? I was planning to buy the Crucial m4 128, but write speeds on the OCZ look to be significantly faster. Most of the reviews out currently are for the 256GB+ versions. What about the retailer? Has anyone here...

    31-40k Mac Mini, RAM, Warranty

    Thanks for the reply. The answer is no. Nothing graphics-intensive at all. The developers need it to test plugins on OS X. As such, I don't think the SSD is a necessity, though I will keep this in mind. On another note, is Mac-certified RAM available in India?

    Yeah, I had checked the Buffalo site too, although the product you listed is not the same series as the one on BTP. Yeah, ICICI works too, but it's not an option for me. But thanks for the tip.
