    Monitors Please suggest Wireless Keyboard & Mouse for Gaming (on LCD TV)

    ^^ Thx. Got the MK250 and it works fine with no issues in terms of range/obstructions for my purpose. Only issue I've noticed during a short period of use is that the mouse pointer doesn't move for about a second or so, but that was while using it over a crinkly leather sofa :ashamed:

    Price updates from S.P. Road (Bangalore)

    @madcrazyboys: I used to buy stuff from Jainex when he setup shop a few years back. In fact, most of my Seagate 300/320 GB PATA HDDs were from him as he used to give real good pricing. Then he started selling aat prices closer to the others, but no negative experiences though!

    Scythe | Fans | Coolers | Others

    Bad batch is possible for the fans, but fan controller also :huh:. Personally I'm skeptical about Scythe now. This I certainly agree on :)

    Scythe | Fans | Coolers | Others

    Phoenix (and others), apologies if I sound like a spoil sport, but the 1900 RPM version of the Slip Stream fans should be avoided. I've had 4 out of 4 go bad from a lot I got last year. Similarly, I got two Kaze Masters and while I haven't used the second one yet, the first one has been letting...

    phoenix, ravi apologies for a late response. I got mine from Amazon / BH Photo Video through someone coming from the US. It's a Hoya HMC UV Filter (46mm) costing about USD 20 + S&H. I have no idea what filters (god ones) are available locally though :-( Be aware that uncoated (cheap) filters...

    Price updates from S.P. Road (Bangalore)

    Folks can also try out Ragupathi Infotech opposite Luciya Hotel on OTC Road (around the corner from SP Road entrance). He gives some good prices in general, but you can always check it out to see how much of a difference is there from the other guys.

    Re: Lynx-India - Brand Introduction [ Ovann Headsets ] Amarbir, leaving aside the vibration feature, how does the OV T99 compare to Microsoft's Lifechat LX3000 (which is a USB-only model) in terms of sound quality?

    My Camera!!

    Congrats phoenix! There's so much to discover with the FZ35 that it'll take up your time for quite a while :) Been doing some 720p video with mine and coming from an olde Canon Powershot G2 (320x160 video), this one's quality is mind blowing. Also got a Canon SD780is for my Dad so will be...

    canon sx20IS opinions needed

    FZ35 does fantastic in-camera correction of purple fringing (JPEGs only) while the SX20 doesn't do any such thing. In shots with hi-contrast edges, this makes a lot of difference. Plus the FZ35 can record in RAW mode as well as zoom the lens in video mode if that's important to you. The Canon...

    digital camera

    Don't go for the SX1 just becaue of it's Full HD video capability! It has a major issue (as do most other CMOS sensor based cams) of giving a "jello effect" while panning horizontally. Google for sample videos and you'll know what that looks like. And Full HD video will really eat up your...
