Mumbai-Pune Expressway

Posted: 31 Jan 2013 02:38 AM PST

EVMs are monitored by Election Comission which is an independent body. And of course, there are enough doubters in the country and abroad about the security of these machines. Same can be talked about the paper votes. How can you trust the people who are in charge of calculating them?

I have doubts about the speed guns used by the traffic police. They can be faulty. And there are enough cases reported online where they have been found to be guilty. I specifically remember one case abroad. A guy used the GPS device on his car to challenge a speeding challan and he won. Because the courts said that two different speeding devices showed different results. And since the evidence provided by the cops was entirely circumstantial with no definitive proof, his challan was dismissed.

Blackberry 10 launch event on January 30

Posted: 31 Jan 2013 02:00 AM PST

I will narrate a joke as an analogy to the situation. Two friends were walking in the jungle and they come across a lion, one of them started removing his slippers and when the other friend asked "Are you crazy, you think you can outrun the lion", the friend replied "Who wants to outrun the lion, all I need to do is outrun you".

BB10/Win8 are like the two friends and Android/Apple the lion, and at this point they are not looking to beat the lion, just each other...

Has gigabyte stopped displaying "dual channel" during booting? Coz when i was using intel MOBO it displayed "running on dual channel".

And i have only 2 ram slots so no mistake of installing the stick in the same color slots


I had recently replaced two 512 mb DDR2 rams with a single 2 GB DDR2 ram on an old sparsely used desktop which had an Asus motherboard. And the motherboard was dual channel but it worked fine and is working like a breeze with Windows 8 too. Though it is recommended to insert two equal rams in dual channel MBs but it hardly matters a lot nowadays if two RAMs are running. It should work fine irrespective of the dual channel or not. Asus motherboards especially are regarded as rough and tough ones which can handle most things that you throw at it.

Reliance LTE 4G Wireless Broadband could be launched announced anytime now

Posted: 30 Jan 2013 02:45 AM PST

^^

I know Susubh that ideally wireless internet can never compete with wired broadband. But the problem in India is that wired broadband is stuck and only wireless plans are improving. And one more problem is the lack of competition. For example, I am from Guwahati which is a state capital as well as the main administrative and business center of 7 Indian states (NE) and there is not a single competitor to BSNL in wired broadband even here. Only in wireless broadband are there other competitors with presence of most players. BSNL in itself has got stuck in the broadband sector and aren't moving forward at all for several years now be it new plan introduction, speed upgrades, existing plan restructuring etc. for several years now. Nor are BSNL planning to do so it seems. Without any competition, they aren't even worried about those things now it seems. So, that is where a pan Indian wireless ISP might gain ground if their pricing is better than BSNL as was previously rumored with the Reliance BWA. Hopefully 4G routers would also be available as soon as 4G becomes big and so, there should not be a problem with sharing too among multiple devices. It is only the pricing and quality of service of Reliance BWA which will decide their success or failure as an ISP. If they providing better services and plans, I won't be surprised if they take away mainstream wired broadband customers from national ISPs.

Using the Bsnl UTStarcom WA3002g4 wireless TYPE-IV ADSL broadband modem router outside India

Posted: 30 Jan 2013 12:53 AM PST

Hi,

I have a Bsnl UTStarcom WA3002g4 wireless TYPE-IV ADSL broadband modem router with 4 LAN ports and 1 Wireless Antenna.

Since I don't have the landline anymore, I don't need this Modem/Router.

Thing is, can this modem/router be used outside India, like in the USA or Singapore? If it can be, I'm thinking of giving it to my cousin who is in the USA or else I sell it in India itself.

Can this modem be used abroad? Thanks for helping.

I should add that even though the price is 9.8k, the shopkeeper told me that its selling like hotcakes and he only has stock on another 250 pieces. After that, even he's out of stock. Apparently micromax has underestimated the demand and all the shops are now facing stock issues.

I was planning to go for this model but now since micromax has announced another phablet convas HD and even samsung has unveiled another dual core tab for 13k, Iam holding back, Would probably purchase new gadget once this month ends.

Nokia Drive+ for ALL Windows Phone

Posted: 25 Jan 2013 01:28 AM PST

Nokia

MS and Nokia have made their turn-by-turn navigation app, available for free to all Windows Phone 8 customers in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada. The app remains in beta as the team fine tunes the customer experience. In the meantime, you can access full turn-by-turn voice-guided navigation, offline maps, speed limit warnings, and conveniences such as day and night modes.

I guess its only for WP8, and may or may not be available for WP7 (WP7.5/WP7.8). I really hope it is available for WP7.

Good move by MS and Nokia anyways!
