Airtel launches IPTV with HD Channels...experience?

Posted: 10 Oct 2013 02:24 AM PDT

Airtel has launched the IPTV with HD Channels just last month however the biggest setback / disappointment is that the existing customers cannot subscribe to the HD Channels. The scheme is only available for new acquisitions...which is really sad. The cost of a new HD IPTV set top box along with a free wife router is Rs 3500 (installation charges) and the HD plan will cost Rs 599/month (though there are only 12 HD channels at this time...hope they add more soon.)

 

I was forced to cancel by earlier IPTV + broadband connection and took a new HD IPTV + broadband connection. Received a HD STB (obviously much different than my earlier STB). The picture and sound quality is much better....I guess thanks to the new better STB and HDMI output. The STB menu / interface is really good (not like the old one) and it very responsive and fast (unlike the earlier IPTV which was very sluggish.)

 

Overall if you really want HD channels along with HDMI output then it is worth the trouble to disconnecting your existing connection and buying a new one for Rs3500/-.....else stick to your existing connection.

Buying Nexus 5 - what are my options ?

Posted: 10 Oct 2013 02:09 AM PDT

Well I know it's not announced yet but anyway, I'll be buying one as soon as it comes out. 

 

How to buy it if it doesn't launch in india?

 

From what I know here are my options ;-

 

1 - Ask a US friend to buy it for you and then ship it to you. (without him coming to india)

2 - Buy it from services like iShopInternational.

3 - Buy it with using proxy services and get it here - long process.

 

I have understood the 2nd and 3rd option and it's process but don't know the first process and how it works?

 

First thing is - how to even send him the cash? I have only debit card here with me with NEFT, will that work? There are services like western union but I don't know how that works. Let me know how to send him cash and don't get charged much, minimum charges please.

 

Ok, Say I have a friend who is willing to pay for the device at play store, then he uses fedex , etc courier companies to send the phone here. Will I be charged less money by this option ? I also have heard if someone gift wraps the item and sends it to you , no custom charges will be there... is that true? 

 

I haven't really ordered something from outside india, So I don't know.

Lenovo to acquire HTC?

Posted: 09 Oct 2013 10:43 PM PDT

http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/lenovo-in-talks-to-acquire-htc-report-429995?pfrom=home-otherstories


Lenovo's been rumoured to be in talks for quite some time with a number of smartphone makers, including BlackBerry, for an acquisition deal. 
 
However, it's now also being reported that the Chinese device maker, which had acquired the consumer hardware business of IBM, is in talks with ailing smartphone maker HTC for acquiring the Taiwanese handset manufacturer's mobile business.
 
Lenovo and HTC have been in confidential discussions since August according to a report by AndroidBeat, that cites Taiwanese publication Apple Daily as a source.
 
The report mentions that Lenovo intends to acquire HTC's brand, similar to the acquisition of IBM's ThinkPad brand. It adds that the specific terms of the deal are not known as the valuation could change. However, it does state that the buyout could be announced and concluded during the first half of 2014.

The Tomorrow People

Posted: 09 Oct 2013 07:10 PM PDT



 

 

are the next evolutionary leap of mankind, a generation of humans born with paranormal abilities — the Tomorrow People. Stephen Jameson stands at the crossroads between the world we know and the shifting world of the future. Up until a year ago, Stephen was a "normal" teenager — until he began hearing voices and teleporting in his sleep, never knowing where he might wake up. Now, Stephen's issues have gone far beyond the usual teenage angst, and he is beginning to question his sanity. In desperation, Stephen decides to listen to one of the voices in his head, and it leads him to his first encounter with the Tomorrow People — John, Cara and Russell — a genetically advanced race with the abilities of telekinesis, teleportation and telepathic communication.

The Tomorrow People are being hunted down by a paramilitary group of scientists known as Ultra. Led by Dr. Jedikiah Price, Ultra sees the Tomorrow People as a very real existential threat from a rival species, and the outcast group has been forced to hide out in an abandoned subway station just beneath the surface of the human world. Trading in secrets, Jedikiah offers Stephen the chance for a normal life with his family and best friend, Astrid, if he will help in the struggle to isolate and eradicate the Tomorrow People. On the other hand, Cara, John and Russell offer Stephen a different type of family and a home where he truly belongs. Unwilling to turn his back on humanity or the world of the Tomorrow People, Stephen sets out on his own path — a journey that could take him into the shadowy past to uncover the truth about his father's mysterious disappearance, or into an unknown future with THE TOMORROW PEOPLE.
