Nilgiris (in Bangalore) sells flaxseeds. I read somewhere that flaxseed is used by bodybuilders as a good source of omega-3.

The wireless setup is for my laptop. I need to work from home on occasion and I don't have another computer table in my bedroom (where my desktop PC is kept) to keep my laptop on. I have a study table in my other bedroom and plan to use it with my laptop.

I'm thinking of switching from my Beetel 220BX to a to wireless modem. I'd contacted the Airtel service person in my area who mentioned that Airtel provides a Beetel 440 something. What I want to know is, does this modem come with a USB connection to PC. I ask this because the ethernet port on...

I've been having problems with my Airtel Broadband 384 kbps connection since Monday. The connection was intermittent i.e. web pages would load sometimes and then the link would fail. The link would restore itself after some time. I called up customer care who sent a guy over. The guy claimed...

I guess everyone is pissed off to some extent with this move of Sania's. Sania was a sort of youth icon. Marrying a pakistani is akin to sleeping with the enemy :bleh:. Was this a love marriage or an arranged one? I don't see the point of an arranged marriage to Shoaib. So many indian men she...

Any chance that a PCI (not PCI Express) version of a USB3.0 controller card will be made available?

Congrats :D. A wise purchase indeed. Just my opinion but some jap companies eg: JVC, Onkyo have really got sound figured out.

Re: need dslr within 30k Oops..I meant that one cannot capture video on a DSLR easily like in a point and shoot camera. Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought that most entry level DSLRs don't have a video function. I meant I don't know what brand is good in DSLRs i.e. which brand to go for...

Re: need dslr within 30k AFAIK, the major shortcomings of a DSLR are live view and image stabilization. Most entry level DSLRs don't support Live View and hence cannot shoot video and also, they do not come with image stabilized kit lenses. I remember some earlier posts on this forum also where...

I would guess that SE has already lost a lot of customers because of their fast port fiasco, M2 and now trying to segment their users into camera and walkman branded phones. Some of the things I actually like about SE holding on to vs Nokia is their relatively small and simple form factor for...

Folks, I recently got my marriage degree :brevet: and my wife (who is a doctor btw) moved in with a ton of medical books. I'm barely able to move around in my living room. However, she has graciously agreed to dispose of some of her old books. But I'm not able to find a store that takes back...

Re: Honda City 1.5S MT Damaged by Linkway Honda Service Centre If this is brought to Honda India's notice, Linkway could face a penalty. From what I've heard, the japs take these issues very seriously and Honda and Toyota penalize their dealers for any quality or service deviations. It is...

Just want to to let working folks who claim tax benefit on phone and broadband bills know that with retrospective effect, tax benefits on phone and broadband are withdrawn by the govt. So, for this year, we won't be getting any tax benefit on those 1K+ broadband bills that we are paying for...

I think the petrol Ritz ZXi with K-series engine for economy can be considered(although personally, I really don't like it's looks). It's a maruti so you have the benefit of a good service network and maybe slightly reduced pricing. I don't know if the Swift with K-series engine is avbl yet...

How does Yash sound? (It's my neighbours' kid's name :) and they're very happy with it).

While I appreciate the beauty of such a monument, I cannot help but think about the obscene amount of money and exploitation of labour that goes into such projects in the middle east...not to mention the power requirements to sustain operations for such monolithic structures. And if you see the...

I was recently on the lookout for a laptop for my brother. On browsing the Dell wesbite, I couldn't help but feel like I was at a Pizza joint. Every add on costs extra. It's like, do you want extra crispiness with your screen :P ..for only 2K? I'm beginning to feel that Dell is not VFM from an...

I have 25L Venus and Racold heaters in my and my father's house. The heating element is of 2kW for 25L. Venus takes twice the time to heat water (18-20 min) vs the Racold heaters(10-12 min). Overall, I've not had any problem with my Venus water heaters but I feel that overall, Racold is better...

I started with Wilkinson sword in my early days. I found it quite good. Then used some displsoble razors. They were not so good. My uncle then introduced me to Mach3 and since then, I've never looked back. Mach3 razors are really good. They are long lasting and are much less abrasive than other...

Folks, as the title says, can we have a sticky thread that has details of the mAh rating for all mobile phones. Members can post actual model no. and mAh rating of the battery of their mobile phones so that there is no confusion with values as is often seen on the net. Often, data such as this...
