Blackberry selling itself to a group led by Fairfax Financial

Posted: 05 Nov 2013 01:43 AM PST

Fairfax Financial is the largest stockholder in the company. I assume this means that BB would go private (like Dell) and Fairfax Financial would sell BB in parts to various buyers hoping to make a profit from the deal.

Upcoming ISP in Pune

Posted: 05 Nov 2013 01:22 AM PST

In my early posts i had indicated that there are certain pilot tests going on in Pune for upcoming ISP which will offer speeds at par with other fastest ISP in India. I was lucky enough to grab some speedtest results of the pilot project.

 

As of now I have no clue as under what name the service is going to be launched. But i will try to find out more or the news will be available shortly because as per my information they are planning to launch within 1-2 months.

 

So here are some proposed features

 

20Gbps Backbone over Ring Topology. (Confirmed)

80% Backbone is underground fiber. (Confirmed)

Connectivity via TTML, Airtel, Vodafone. (Confirmed)

Full IPv4 Dynamic/Static Addresses. (Confirmed)

P2P Caching with a Max On-Net Bandwidth of 200~1Gbps per User. (Unconfirmed)

DC++ Hub. (Unconfirmed)

Uncapped Speed within On-Net Zone. (Confirmed)

On-Net Gaming Servers. (Unconfirmed)

Usage Based Payment Policy i.e No Monthly Bindings (Unconfirmed)

Lifetime Accounts.(Unconfirmed)

 

And here is the speedtest results at endpoint running on PPPoE.

Problem with internet settings I think

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 10:15 PM PST

Hi guys

I have Airtel Internet and I am using the modem they provided. Previously I was using Belkin wireless modem till it broke down. So now I brought a new Router Asus AC66U and now the problem is my signal is good but the internet drops off. The modem is showing good connection. I have a computer plugged in via LAN and it never drops where as my cell phone shows good signal (Signal strenth: 3 out of 4 or sometimes 4 out of 4) n still cant browse. this happens once in 15 to 20 mins n specially wen i am next room.

I think there is something wrong with settings as my wifi strength is good. This did not happen with my belkin wireless modem.

I have cordless n microwave n all sorts of stuff so I switched from 2.4 Ghz to 5Ghz channel but no improvement.

Can u help me out with settings?

Thank You.

Should I switch from Airtel to Docomo?

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 09:54 PM PST

Hi,

I saw the broadband plans offered by DOCOMO and they seemed really good. Currently I have Airtel 4 Mbps and I am paying 1799 per month. ( Great connection & customer service )

I wanted to take the 16 Mbps plan offered by Docomo at 1600 with a FUP limit of 80 gb. I want to ask the users in this forum . Is it worth the switch?

What do I do with my internet?

1.  I download upto 50-60 gb a month.

2. I browse the net for atleast 4-5 hours a day .

3. I have a part time job that requires a lot of uploading and so I need to be online a lot.

4. I play a lot of online games during the weekends

So overall Airtel 4 Mbps Vs Docomo 16 Mbps. Which should I choose?

LG G Flex

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 08:07 PM PST

 

As you can see in the images (above and below), the G Flex offers a curved display, but the direction of its curve is completely the opposite of the Galaxy Round that was announced last week: instead of it curving from left to right, the G Flex goes from top to bottom.

Dhoom 3

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 06:48 PM PST

Like always, we now have the rumors on the upcoming movie Dhoom 2. Apparently, it still features John Abraham. In simple words, Hrithik Roshan is actually John Abraham in disguise. He is wearing a mask throughout the movie.

Sounds pretty stupid right? It is indeed.

Reliance Mobile to offer Apple iPhone 5s and 5c on contract for free/discounted pricing!

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 06:39 PM PST

http://www.readability.com/articles/xultiac6

 

The telecom company will offer unlimited voice calls, SMS and 3G data for a fixed monthly fee ranging between Rs 2,500 and Rs 2,800. The subscriber will be locked in to RCom's network under a two-year contract. Under the scheme, the 16 GB iPhone 5c, priced without subsidy at Rs 41,900, will be available for a monthly fee of Rs 2,500 while the 5s, priced at Rs 53,500, will be on offer for around Rs 2,800 a month. The 32GB version will come with an upfront fee of Rs 10,000 in addition to the monthly charges. The 64GB model, priced at Rs 71,500 off the shelf, will be on offer for an upfront fee of Rs 18,000.

 

So, basically... 16GB models for free. 32GB model for 10K. 64GB model for 18K.

Microsoft Surface 2

As much as I love Surface Pro 2, I have a new main machine now, and it's Surface 2. It feels amazing and is even lighter, thinner, and has longer battery life than before. We have fundamentally revamped Surface 2 to make it the most productive personal tablet ever. Trust me here. It is much faster – now with 72 graphics cores, twice the internet speed, and USB 3.0. It is even more beautiful – with an enticing new color that reflects the true color of Magnesium, a full HD screen, and a thinner and lighter design. And most importantly, it is even more productive – now with Outlook RT which is how I do email, a 3.5MP front-facing camera optimized for Skype for my video calls home or video messages when we can't connect. To ensure that you get the most out of your device, we're including free Skype calling to landlines 60 countries and free Skype WiFi at over two million hotspots for a year, as well as 200GB of SkyDrivestorage for two years. The Skype and SkyDrive offers are for both Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2!

Online gamer and Heavy downloader switching to Tikona from Airtel - Advise needed

Posted: 04 Nov 2013 11:32 AM PST

Hi All,

I am from Bangalore and have been a customer of Airtel for so many years now and have been mainly using it for online gaming and heavy downloading along with browsing. Ever since FUP was introduced I started my dislike for Airtel as it started to affect my download requirements. I need to download atleast 300GB per month and I also need good pings to online Gaming servers in Asia. Airtel provides the latter but not the former.

 

So I am considering the 4mbps Tikona unlimited broadband plan (1499 Rs). There is no ACT/You broadand in my area. Few questions on the same

 

1. Does Tikona have good pings to Asian servers for smooth online gaming?

2. Tikona's terms and conditions says 1:20 contention ratio for FUP of 80GB and upto 1:50 post that . Can anyone tell me what is the speed folks get after the fup limit?

3. When the Tikona engineer comes for demo what all should I check because Tikona employs wireless connection?

4. What about the signal quality and service quality of Tikona in Bangalore?

With a 5 inch 1080 x 1920 resolution screen, and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 under the hood, it all sounds like your every day mid-2013 top-shelf model. That is, until you get to the camera on back. The rear-facing camera on the Sony i1 is a 20/13MP camera with an Exmor RS sensor, G Lens, Cybershot, dual LED and Xenon flash, Mobile BIONZ Image processing and interchangeable lens.
