    Is the Canon G12 a good buy?

    @adder Thanks a lot for the detailed information on the NEX status in India. I was looking for some details exactly as you've mentioned. @BF1983 Thanks for the update. Hehe...you're right about waiting for the perfect device :P. I am definitely going to factor the NEX in my purchase decision...

    Is the Canon G12 a good buy?

    I read up on the Nikon P7000 and it seems to be a significant evolution from the P5000 and the P6000. (Nikon point and shoots have generally not been up to the mark unlike their DSLRs. However, the P7000 does look promising.) The G12 however seems to have better lineage i.e. it seems to have...

    Is the Canon G12 a good buy?

    Folks, I've been thinking of purchasing the newly released Canon G12. I was initially thinking about purchasing m4/3 due to the larger sensors (I'd opened a thread about it some time back below) http://www.techenclave.com/general-portables/panasonic-g1-a-good-buy-177536.html but on reading...

    Car & Bike Toyota Etios Sedan @ Rs 4.96 Lakhs

    If you check out the photos of this car on Team-BHP, you will see that the interior quality looks severely compromised. Japanese brands are known only for reliability and never for Value For Money. Between Honda and Toyota, Honda offers more VFM(if you can call it that). Toyota is just too...

    Car & Bike Time to change my ride !

    You can ignore the Micra and the Polo. They are 3 cylinder engines designed for fuel efficiency. The missing cylinder makes a lot of difference when performance is concerned :P. You can look at the Ritz and the Swift with the K-Series engine. Both I believe give you a peak power output of 84...

    Laptops New Dell XPS Looks Fugly. What do you think ?

    Dell to me was always primarily into business laptops. Guess they've simply lost the concept behind XPS that they started with in the 1st place. Looks like a Macbook wannabe.

    Car & Bike Punto Vs. I20 .. PLZ HELP...

    Did you test drive the Figo? IMO, you can get the petrol Figo Titanium in that budget. The Figo has decent rear legroom and to me, seemed like a better car than the i20. I test drove both recently. I found the i20's rear legroom and front visibility poor. Of course, the gizmos are many in the...

    Storage Solutions New 160gb HDD showing 128gb available space.... help please?

    It might be a BIOS limitation. IIRC, Seagate had some software to work around such problems but it needs to be installed before using the HDD.

    Panasonic G1 a good buy?

    Yes, I saw some comparisons on the net that seem to indicate that the G1 with lens is not pocketable. Maybe the GF1 is what I'm looking for. Agree but what is your opinion of going for such a camera instead of an expensive compact? The EP1 for example would surely give better pictures with the...

    Lenovo® G560 (0679-99U) --> Is it a good buy?

    +1. I don't know why Lenovo just doesn't give up on this Fn key idea and move it somewhere else. It's really hard to remember this when one switches between laptops. Otherwise, the build quality of a Lenovo is quite good. We use Lenovo T410 at our office for our business use.

    Panasonic G1 a good buy?

    Folks, the Panasonic G1 (and the Olympus PEN EP1) is available at jjmehta .com , Digital Camera , Digital SLR , Video Camera , Apple iPod , Sandisk Pendrive available all over India for around 22K. Given that its a micro 4/3 sensor based camera, Im guessing that its picture quality is way...

    Iomega Prestige Compact 1TB Portable HDD

    Got myself an Iomega Prestige Compact 1TB portable (2.5 inch) HDD :D. I purchased it from Computer Shop at Curzon Complex, Brigade Road, Bangalore for Rs 6.4K. I also saw a Ruby Red coloured Iomega 1TB portable from the eGO Series. But the asking price was 7.4K. The eGO series has 1.3m drop...

    Car & Bike i10 vs Beat vs Ritz..confused..please help!

    I think you can rule out the Beat. It has a cramped back seat and poor rear visibility. (To me, it feels more adept to be a two seater like the A-Star but that's just my opinion.) I don't know much about the Ritz as I've sat in it a long time ago and I did not like it then. The i10 has a nice...

    New DELTAPAGE website interface

    I've been observing their website over the years. Their prices always seemed higher than market value to me. It could've been that they did not update their website frequently but I always got the feeling that they took their time. In my experience, the pricelist at Computer Warehouse Online -...

    12" netbook advice needed

    I'd avoid getting the mini if I were you. My experience with HP products is that they are a> overpriced for what they offer and b> prone to failure due poor quality, rickety laptop assembly. (I don't think HP does any kind of study on how their products are put together and why their...

    Storage Solutions 1 TB Optical Disk By TDK!!

    Require advice on LG GX300 Dual Sim Mobile

    Good to know that you're happy with your purchase :D. Btw, wha't the capacity of the battery. How's the call quality? Now, get a nice cheap SIM2, call from SIM2 and receive on SIM1. That way, your mobile number does not change when folks try to reach you on SIM1 and you can call them back cheap...

    Require advice on LG GX300 Dual Sim Mobile

    @saurabhnarula - Thanks for the update but I did not get what 35 and 26 means. I've put off my purchase decision for a while until some better options in dual sim phones become available. I wanted to opt for a dual sim to take advantage of the call offers available from service providers...
