    Nokia Lumia 800 - Heavy Pricing ?

    wow.. a titan with 4.7" screen for 20k, that's a steal; just go for it. On topic, the lumia just launched. I remember whenever a new galaxy series phone launches, it's upwards of 30k and drops down. The same will happen here. For all those who want USB storage mode and try out other "geeky"...

    Marketplace access through Zune (on PC) is not possible for india. Just use marketplace enabler and launch zune through that. Download WP7 MarketPlace Enabler 1.0 Free - Access the MarketPlace from anywhere in the world via your Zune software - Softpedia

    Bing maps for bangalore is good but it doesn't have directions enabled if you keep India as the locale, I advise that you install gmaps and use it for all your map search. Bing maps just sucks at finding POI for India.

    Nokia Lumia 800 Pre Orders Open

    There has been an update to the Lumia 800, which does improve a bit on the camera side and the battery life. Also WP design is not to follow the android way or even the old WM6.x way, where the file system, registry was exposed and letting the user customize it the way they want. WP wants...

    Marketplace has been launched India since Mango took off.. I have been using it on my phone ever since then. Can you check if you have set the region to India in your LIVE id in https://account.live.com/SummaryPage.aspx

    the change log would have said that.. see if your version is 7740, that has the exchange 2003 bug fixed. Also HTC has been enabled internet sharing on their phones, you might have got that as well.

    Then you need to keep your phone region as US, and your computer's locale as US, then it works fine. The only problem is when you try to buy apps/games, you need a card with US address :)

    how many days does it take to close bsnl broadband account?

    What crossx said. After 1 week, they will give you a call and ask you to return the equipment in case you rented it. Return the modem with accessories and the splitter as well.

    Yes, marketplace is available in india. You need to have a Live ID registered for India to use it. However, I haven't been able to access marketplace through Zune when the region is set to India on my PC, I just launch marketplace enabler to do that.

    Nokia are having a demo application which runs on symbian OS to show how the Nokia 800 phones work, you can always use that to get the feel of it.

    Use the marketplace enabler to launch Zune on PC, it will have marketplace enabled. For ringtones, take any of your MP3, and add "RINGTONE" to the GENRE tag, and it will appear in your ringtone list. Make sure the length of the mp3 is less than 40 seconds.
