Mobiles
Few months back, Anupam Saxena had reported that Airtel is killing off SmartBytes for mobile customers in Delhi. My first reaction to the story was hoping that they wouldn’t do this for Karnataka circle. SmartBytes was great for the rare occasion that you’d require burst data(for example: when travelling or when your home Internet is down) – if you run out of data cap(I detest the pittance of data cap we get, that’s another different story) head over to their SmartBytes…
Way back in March, I got a bit tired of iOS and jumped the ship back to Android, purchased a Samsung LOLSUNG Galaxy S2 as my main phone. I won’t get into iOS v/s Android debate now, suffice to say I prefer Android to what it lets me do with the device. Anyhow, I didn’t want to give up on the 3GS – it’s a nice device and always a good idea to have a backup handset. As days passed by however, I more or less stopped using the 3GS.
It’s been about 7 months now since I purchased the Nexus S, and overall I’ve been very pleased about the phone (yeah, yeah detailed review soon. Promise!). However a point of bother has been the battery life- or the lack of it. While it’s better than my better than previous iPhone 3G, the stock Nexus S battery lasts just about a business day. By business day I mean about ~ 12-14hours (though I I do use it heavily – on an average ~3hours of music, about hour and half or so…

I think this is my first post on iPhone ( barring the rant{#aptureLink_0054d33B1X}). o_O. Surprising, since I purchased the iPhone from eBay close to a year ago. Anyhow, being the computer freak enthusiast that I am, I keep a track of most of the latest software that appears on the tech scene. I generally have a zero-day update policy – any new version/update that arrives for a software I generally update it. I’m probably amongst the few folks who also read the release notes and…
That got your attention ? Well, brace up, this is a rant.
Most of the Ruby gang{#aptureLink_MgTFsoEnqR} are very well aware of the “Stupid SMS series”. For the uninitiated, it was Nitin’s way of…. umm… timepass ? by sending SMS to all of the Ruby gang{#aptureLink_ycd65g2C6k} which made absolutely no sense whatsoever ( I hate to admit it, but it’s true, Nitin is a version of “The Amit{#aptureLink_d77PbHimNT}“).
I get quite a lot of mails asking about Airtel’s GPRS services and their settings, so I thought I’ll post this here.
Previously I’d posted about Digia @web – a fully, finger touch operated WebKit-based browser for UIQ3 phones like the Sony Ericsson P1i would be available for download soon in this month. All About Symbian has confirmed that the beta version is now available for download.
