Good Android Based Phones Collection

Admin — Sat, 19 May 2012 06:10:17 +0000

1. Samsung Galaxy Note

The Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 represents all that’s terrible and all that’s exciting about the modern era of smartphones. The Note however was quite a hit with the business class users as it came off as a device that managed to offer substantial speed with its 1.4GHz Dual Core and a large enough display to get work done on the fly.

The screen has a resolution of 1280×800 pixels (which puts it in the same corner as Android tablets such as the Motorola Xoom, the Acer Iconia Tab and the Lenovo Ideapad K1) and boasts of Pentile Super AMOLED technology (that trades overall quality for more power efficiency and pixel density). The Note has 16GB of internal storage and supports up to 32GB of microSD storage although it doesn’t come with a card in the bundle.

The Samsung Galaxy Note is a huge device and as a result, whether you would want to buy it really depends on whether you are able to look beyond its size and bulk (although at about 180g, it’s not really very heavy). The Note also features plenty of video codecs built in to handle all format runs on Android Gingerbread with an ICS update on the horizon. The Samsung S-Pen or Smart Pen stylus can also be quite handy for both work and play or just jotting down notes.

2. Sony Xperia S

Sony’s latest high-end Smartphone in their Xperia range was only recently launched for India and is the first device launched under the Sony branding (minus the Ericsson). It has a 5 Megapixel camera 2592 x 1536 Pixels resolution with autofocus, dual LED flash and Geo-tagging, Touch Focus. Secondary Camera VGA, 0.3 Megapixel, 640×480 Pixels resolution. Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is a 2G network can access Quad-band GSM support of GSM 850/900/1800/1900. Dual-band 3G that is HSDPA 900/2100/.

It’s equipped with a 1.5GHz Dual Core processor and comes loaded with Sony’s Bravia Mobile Engine to enhance your visual experience.This is also the very first Android powered device to come with a 12 megapixel camera. The camera settings include 3D panorama Sweep and geotagging amongst others. The unique transparent strip at the bottom of the handset also adds a bit of class and sex appeal to the overall look and feel of the handset that’s quite robust in design as it is.

The Galaxy Nexus was the first smartphone in the U.S. to feature the latest version of Android, dubbed Ice Cream Sandwich. It features a 4.65-inchHD Super AMOLED display and runs a 1.2-GHz dual-core processor. The Galaxy Nexus also boasts NFC, so users can tap into Google Wallet, as well as tighter integration with Google Voice, letting you use your main phone number as a Google Voice number.

It’s the only phone running Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), and that’s the future. In many ways, this is the ultimate early adopter phone. The phone itself isn’t perfect; typically, Nexus phones aren’t the best hardware on the market. But the software takes a major leap forward, with everything from a better Gmail experience to a faster browser and the ability to put folders on your home screens.

This is physically the biggest phone I’ve seen recently, measuring 5.3 by 2.7 by 0.4 with a sprawling 4.65-inch, 1,280-by-720 Super AMOLED screen. The display is too big for people with smaller thumbs to use one-handed. The Galaxy Nexus connects to Verizon’s 3G CDMA EVDO Rev A and 4G LTE networks, as well as to Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0. I got excellent speeds on the 4G LTE network, consistently better than the Droid

RAZR: Downloads ranged from 5.2Mbps up to a stunning 20.7Mbps, and uploads ranged from 4Mbps to 9.5Mbps. You can share your connection with up to 10 devices as a Wi-Fi hotspot, so it’s great that ICS now includes an easy-to-read settings pane showing your moment-by-moment and app-by-app data usage.

The HTC One X features a beautiful, high-definition, 4.7-inch display, with 1280-by-720-pixel (720p) resolution. Under the hood, the HTC One X is just as impressive. It features Qualcomm’s next-generation Snapdragon S4 CPU, a 1.5-GHz dual-core chip with faster graphics and improved power efficiency. There’s also 1GB RAM, 16GB of internal storage, and the usual compliment of GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth radios.

It’s very well built, with top-quality plastic around the back and sides with a nicely textured matte finish. I did miss the gradient anodized aluminum housing on the HTC One S, though. A prominent silver ring surrounds the camera lens on the back, and protrudes slightly, just enough that the phone tilts a bit when sitting flat on a table.

Calls sounded clear through an Aliph Jawbone Era Bluetooth headset, although voice dialing doesn’t work over Bluetooth, which is a pesky and unnecessary limitation. The speakerphone got very loud, but sounded tinny; at least it didn’t distort heavily. Battery life was solid, at 9 hours and 9 minutes of talk time while connected to LTE.

HTC adds a Car Mode, which displays a beautiful landscape home screen with large icons for easy access while behind the wheel. This includes the free Google Maps Navigation, as well as icons for making calls, streaming Internet radio, and calling up music tracks stored on the phone.

5. Motorola Droid RAZR

The top Android smartphone you can buy today, the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx combines the best materials, Razr Maxx has the longest Talk time of any Verizon Wireless phone we’ve ever tested, along with the longest video playback time and the longest 4G streaming time. A truly gigantic battery. What you get is a smartphone that’s ready to be used to the max.

Tests run over the past few days, the Razr Maxx checked in with 16 hours, 45 minutes of continuous 3G talk time; 14 hours, 15 minutes of playing a locally stored video with the screen at maximum brightness and one email account attached; and 6 hours, 57 minutes of continually streaming audio over a 4G LTE connection. Razr Maxx is also one of the most expensive smartphones on the market.

The Droid Razr Maxx is thicker than the original Motorola Droid Razr, but considering how slim the Razr was, that isn’t a hardship. The phone is 5.2 by 2.7 by .35 inches (HWD), as compared to .28 inches depth on the older phone; basically, the whole handset is now as thick as the camera “bump” up top, smoothing the body out.

More importantly, like the Razr this is an extremely well-built phone—rock solid, with a water-resistant back, a steel core, and a Gorilla Glass display. The back panel has a black and gray pattern and feels slightly grippy; the front resists even greasy fingerprints. A door on the side panel hides the SIM and MicroSD card slots, and the phone comes with a 16GB card as well as an additional 16GB of internal storage.

The Droid Razr is superior for many reasons including better battery life, better physical materials, and better call quality and radio reception, for instance. That all outweighs the OS downgrade, although we wish we didn’t have to choose between the best hardware and the most current OS.

Can I Bin My Laptop & Replace with Kindle Fire?

Admin — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 17:21:33 +0000

The main thing to remember about the Kindle Fire is that it is not a tablet, not a computer. It is not designed to compete with the iPad, and head to head it wouldn’t stand a chance. And although it may put some of the cheaper and more rudimentary tablets in their place it would struggle against the top brands in terms of capacity and responsiveness. Having said all that this is a very neat piece of kit and compared with its predecessors it is absolutely dripping with extras that make it a thoroughly enjoyable product to own.

Kindle Fire Specs:

At just under $200 it is reasonably priced for what it offers and probably fits fairly neatly into the general budget for a decent Christmas or Birthday gift without the need for breaking the bank. Priced as it is, producers Amazon, claim to be making a loss on the product itself, in the hope that they will redeem the loss on the cost of the item through the sales of apps, video, movies and books from the Amazon website on to the devices. You will need to be prepared to purchase all of the media you want to use through Amazon if you want to use it through the Fire as it is essentially just a media viewer, although a state of the art one, designed to help you access Amazon products.

The 7” screen is multi touch and very responsive, but not quite as intuitive as an iPad in following finger movements on screen. It uses technology called In Plane Switching which does allow for wide angle viewing, useful if you are sharing a movie with a friend, and the 1024 x 600 pixel 169 ppi gives the video display a nice rich effect. The screen itself is made from gorilla glass, superbly tough and you shouldn’t worry about needing screen protectors, as the average set of keys, or other random metallic objects that you might have stowed in the bottom of your bag pose no real threat at all. It does weigh in at a reasonably hefty 413 grams and although this is lighter than the iPad (600grams), if you do find yourself without your stand it is difficult to hold for sustained reading/viewing times.

Like a Computer, but not a Computer:

You have to remind yourself that this is not a computer, but with the combination of the high speed dual core processor, some of the creative apps and the fast internet browsing it does feel like you have a device which is all but in name a PC. Load it up with Office Suite Pro 5, Exchange By TouchDown, (and Facebook, of course!) and you might as well be at your desk. The web browser silk is an innovative feature and something of which Amazon are rightly boastful, although not all websites are sized perfectly on screen, access and flow between web pages is smooth and load time is minimal. Overall if you were looking to replace your tired old laptop, notebook or PC you could probably manage with the Kindle Fire and not suffer to greatly (if at all) as a consequence.

Storage Issues:

Storage on the device itself is an issue. It comes with 8GB as standard, which for a media playing device, given the current direction in terms of file size in terms of definition and quality, that media is going, 8GB is hopelessly inadequate. You look at the numbers and almost shout, “What were they thinking?” Particularly as it doesn’t come with an SD Card Slot. Especially as included in the 8GB is the 1.5GB OS, leaving you with 6.5GB; enough to hold 1 movie, 20 apps, 200 songs and a couple of hundred books in total. Not really the greatest media catalogue in the world. Amazon were of course thinking, as everyone is, with their heads in the cloud. And the cloud here is an excellent feature, with 5gb of free storage and for a buck a year you can get an extra gigabyte, giving you the storage without the hassles of cluttering the device and worrying about download times.

Overall the Kindle Fire is kit definitely worth having, it will not stand up against and Ultrabook, or iPad, but against a standard notebook, it performs fairly well and as a media viewer it is in a class of its own. Its major plus point lies in its price, which is no fortune and won’t require a large online balance transfer so the Kindle Fire should not be passed by simply because of its shortcomings.

Nikon J1 Digital Compact Camera Reviews

Admin — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:01:44 +0000

Ever wondered, why are all the SLR cameras come in kind of size and shape, with a long, flat back and viewfinder housing at top center? These allow you to take great pictures, of course, if you have a good eye for them, even in the hardest situations, but these are huge and clunky to many users. Why the hell, in this digital age with no film to be drawn behind a shutter, can’t cameras be smaller and of comfort design?

Now, this brings us to the Nikon 1 line. Let’s try the J1. It’s not pocket-sized, but it’s a small, flat camera with interchangeable lenses, considerably enhanced image quality than most point-and-shoot cameras, color rendition in low fluorescent light is impressive and a additional features or accessories within.

Pros: Very small body, with solid feel; Fast AF; No-nonsense interface. Excellent video capture and Good picture quality.

Cons: Body could be smaller for sensor size; High ISO isn’t as good as other compact system cameras; Battery life below average; Weak flash; Confusing controls.

Price and Availability: The Nikon J1 shipped in the US market from October 2011. The J1 is sold in three different kit versions, all of which include a 10-30mm zoom lens. The single-lens kit has suggested retail pricing of around US$650. Two twin-lens kits, which add either a 10mm prime lens or a 30-110mm zoom lens, are each available for about US$900. The Nikon J1 is sold in a variety of body/lens color choices that let the fashion-conscious match their own personal style. Body and zoom lens color choices include black, silver, white, red, and pink, while the prime lens is available in all of these except pink.

Basic Specifications:

Resolution: 10.10 Megapixels
Kit Lens: 3.00x zoom 10-30mm (27-81mm eq.)
Viewfinder: LCD
LCD Size: 3.0 inch
ISO: 100-6400

India’s Android Tablet Aakash Review

Admin — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 07:03:12 +0000

The much awaited India’s ultra low cost Aakash tablet is finally launched. In association with Ministry of Infornmation & Technology (India), Datawind launches Ubislate 7 in India as Aakash. Aakash Tablet is set to bridge the big India DIGITAL DIVIDE. Its main objective is to provide students of India, especially in its countryside, a cheap alternative to PC. Through Aakash tablet, students in India would have access to good quality study content like video lectures, e-books etc.

Aakash tablet offers a web delivery platform that enables quality and interactive knowledge over the internet. The tablet is a computing device that is low in cost but rich in features. The tablet is also integrated with social networking applications like facebook, twitter and with email.

Here we look at its features:

Screen: 7-inches; 800-by-400 pixels; Resistive touchscreen
Operating system: Android 2.2, Froyo
Processor: 366 MHz Connexant; HD Video co-processor (both with graphics accelerators)
Memory: 256MB RAM (internal); 2GB Flash (external)
Storage: 2GB card included, expandable up to 32GB
Ports: Two USB 2.0; 3.5mm audio out jack; 3.5mm audio in jack (No built-in speakers)
Connectivity: GPRS; Wi-Fi 802.11 a,b,g
Power: Up to 180 minutes on battery; AC adapter, 200-240 volt
Weight: 350 grams

If analyze it deep, there are some negative points of it as well. The tablet screen, which is pressure sensitive, responds rather slowly to gestures. It’s certainly not as dazzling as the high-end tablets but that can be expected by its price. Browsing Internet and running the apps, one could easily notice that the response time is also quite slow. Scrolling, for instance, is a swipe-and-wait affair. A goofy plastic cover protects the screen, slowing down the touch response considerably.

Overall impression that this tablet gives us that it is built for performance. Many of those likely to use or own the the Aakash Tablet will never have used a desktop computer, and it’s possible that they never will.

Which is the Best Camera for Photography?

Admin — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 13:17:27 +0000

People frequently asked these questions:

“What is the best camera for photography?”
“Which camera should I buy?” OR
“What’s the best camera in my price range?”etc…

Answer: The best digital camera is one that helps you take photos that you love.

Comparing best camera is a lot like comparing apples to apples at the time of purchasing. Faced with a large pile of apples, how do you pick the best one for you? You can pick from a variety of apples because you know exactly what you like (i.e. crunchy, tart, green, and no spots). Finding the best camera is not very different. But you need to think on some points which will help to choose the best. It should help you pick out the best digital camera for you:

Discover your Inner Photographer
Let’s start with a Self-Assessment.

The question you have to ask yourself is: What do I love to photograph?

Think of this exercise as finding your photographic sign. Once you know your sign, it will be easier for you to find a camera you’re companionable with. Now we are going to next section, a list of a variety of photographic styles. See if one of them appeals to you more than the others.

Photography Styles:

Action and Sports: You may not think you’re an action or sporty photographer. If you find your happiness in life is photographing children and pets, than you are! They never stop moving around, and they rarely sit still for a photo.
Portraits: Faces are fascinating to you. When you go on vacation you are more inclined to take photos of the locals than the scenery. There is something about the human face and the expressiveness of the eyes that is enchanting.
Landscapes: Landscape photographers are somewhat opposite to portrait photographers. While the portrait person likes to interact with people, the landscaper is more at home in the beauty of nature without another single person for miles.
Universal: Macro photography is for those who love the small things in life, and pay enough attention to their surroundings to notice all of the tiny details. The devil is in the details – and you want to try to find it.
Night/Low Light: You enjoy prowling around in the dark or dim are fascinated by the way night-time can change a city. That or you really enjoy taking photos inside dim galleries and museums.
Travel/Outdoor: You want your camera to go with you EVERYWHERE. Whether it’s hiking, biking, or jumping out of an airplane, the best camera for you will be small and light.
Indoor: You are most inclined to pull out a camera when your small child is reaching for his favorite toy. You take photos of birthday parties, dinners, and other events that occur inside a house.
Spontaneous: You want to be able to react on a moment’s notice, and know that speed is essential to capturing the photo of a lifetime. You have a habit of waiting until the last moment to bring out the camera.
Planned/Studio: No photo you take is without some form of preparation. Whether it’s a child’s portrait or a still life of your favorite flower, you like to get everything set up so that the light, color and mood are just right.

Best Photography Accessories:

ColorMunki Photo: Combining monitor calibration with printer profiling, the ColorMunki Photo should take care of all your color managing needs.
Epson P-7000 Multimedia Storage Viewer: The Epson P-7000 is good to use when it comes to portable storage devices. Battery life is good and would be more than enough to last the typical user a full day… this certainly isn’t a cheap device, but the quality is first rate, and it beats the heck out of hauling a laptop for image storage.
Epson Stylus Photo R2880: The increase in dMax, while faint, makes the already solid black and white performance even better. Combined with the lack of metamerism,.
HP Photosmart B9180: Overall, the HP B9180 is hard to beat. The image quality is first rate, and with the move to coloring inks the print life and media options are excellent.
Wacom Cintiq 12wx: The ultimate companion for creative professionals, Wacom’s slim and light Cintiq 12WX delivers pen-on-screen capabilities that allow digital content creators to work smarter and faster The Cintiq 12WX is suitable in a variety of computer environments, especially those where users wish to work across displays.

The moment when you start comparing cameras, it’s easy to lose track of why you needed the camera in the first place. At that time, Pick Your Style before you go any further, pick your photographic style. It’s OK if you choose 2 or 3 styles, so long as you remember which ones they are. When you just focus on the features that help you take the photos you love, it reduces the number of features you have to evaluate. You’ll find the best digital camera and not just the best camera for anyone.

12 Megapixel Digital Cameras Prices

Admin — Tue, 10 May 2011 08:28:16 +0000

In earlier phase when digital cameras were only 2 or 3 MP’s, each megapixel mattered if you were making bigger prints. There was little observable difference between cameras with apparently different ratings. For instance, a 3 MP camera pretty much looks the same as a 6 MP camera, even when blown up to 12 x 18″ (30x50cm)!

Sharpness depends more on your photographic skill than the number of megapixels, because most people’s careless technique or subject motion blurs the image more than the width of a microscopic pixel. Color and quality are far more important theoretically. Some lower resolution digital cameras made better images than some higher resolution ones.

12 Megapixels Cameras:

Resolution of 12 megapixel cameras pictures at 4200-pixels-by-2800-pixels pictures taken with the cameras print out in sizes up to 16-inches-by-24-inches with a clear resolution. 12 megapixels cameras are use for the pros, its detail needs to be managed and changed, enlarged, cropped and turned into the kind of work you see in National Geographic kind of channels.

Panasonic Lumix DMC TZ7

Panasonic introduced the Lumix DMC-TZ7 as the most up-to-date member of its commended TZ series. With 10.1-megapixel, a 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens and 12x optical zoom, the Lumix TZ7 (in the USA known as Lumix ZS3) is a valuable addition to a series of digital cameras that have won worldwide popularity for packing powerful zoom lenses into compact bodies. The Panasonic Lumix TZ7 is a powerhouse performer with massive adaptability.

The Lumix TZ7 features a 3-inch, high resolution 460,000-dot Intelligent LCD with a wide viewing angle, improving visibility during recording & playback.
The Panasonic Lumix TZ7 digital camera features a premium quality of Leica DC Vario Elmar 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens with a 12x optical zoom. A lens like this, with a range from 25mm to 300mm in 35mm film. The Extra Optical Zoom function that extends zoom power to 21.4x (at 3-megapixel resolution) by using the center part of the large CCD to bring subjects even closer without fading the image quality.
The Lumix DMC-TZ7 has a 12-megapixel CCD and shoots with up to 10-megapixel resolution. This is because the CCD on the Panasonic Lumix TZ7 is multi-aspect that can reproduce images shot with the lens so you can always capture vibrant, richly expressive shots with a wide viewpoint.
Available functions in motion image recording mode the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 also provides a Color mode and carries over 17 different scene modes from photo scene modes in movie recording. In AVCHD Lite recording, you can select from three levels of motion image quality: SH (17 Mbps), H (13 Mbps) and L (9 Mbps).

Motorola has been enormously quiet in Australia over the last few years but i’m hoping it comes to market with the high point, which is similar to the Droid that Motorola launched in the US.It runs Android 2.0 and has iPhone-like multitouch support, with users able to pinch the 3.7-inch screen to zoom on web pages, maps and photos. The phones comes with Motorola’s one-by-one GPS navigation software, MOTONAV, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and a 5-megapixel camera.

2. T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide

3G Slide has a 3.4 inch display, side slide out QWERTY keyboard, 5 megapixel camera, 600 MHz processor, and Swype touch keyboard. The new Android features include the Faves Gallery, myModes, and Genius button. Modes is a cool way where your device can be setup to automatically change the customization of the HTC Sense interface based on time and position so you can have it switch from business to personal mode after the workday ends.

3. Nokia N8

The N8 is also the 1st Symbian^3 powered device. While the user interface doesn’t look much different than what we see in S60 and Maemo, It does have improvements that will probably appeal to Nokia and Symbian fans about the world and may even bring in some new fans.

Specifications include 5-band 3G data support, anodized aluminum casing in five colors, 3.5 inch 640×360 pixels resolution OLED display, 720p video recording capability, 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, internal 16GB memory with support for microSD expansion cards, HDMI port, USB , FM transmitter, 680 MHz processor, and USB On-the-Go so you can plug in USB devices to use them without a PC.

The iPhone 3GS provides great video recording with its 3MP camera as well as editing features and allows you to shoot video in any way you please. The camera allows you to record 640 x 480 videos at 30 frames / second, which is almost DVD quality.

When emailing videos, the iPhone 3GS increases compression and shrinks videos’ dimensions to 480 x 360 to get the bitrate of 800 kb/sec. The quality of the resulting videos drop down but it is adequate for the casual users and comparable to most videos created with cell phones.

Dell Launches Streak 7 – 10-inch Business Tablet

Admin — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 08:23:40 +0000

Few months before, we’ve showed you the Dell streak in India. Now on Thursday Dell declared a tablet with a 7-inch touch screen at CES 2011 LAS VEGAS, and it plans to launch a 10-inch tablet later this year for business customers.

Dell briefly flashed the 10.1in Streak at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), but put the Streak 7 center stage, touting the tablet’s Corning Gorilla Glass-covered face, its Nvidia Tegra dual-core 1GHz processor, 1.3Mp webcam, 5Mp stills cam, GPS, 32GB of Flash storage, and its 2.4GHz 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

Streak 7, like Streak 5, will run Android 2.2, so Dell’s clearly unwilling to wait for Android 3 Honeycomb. The 7′s display resolution is just 800 x 480. Dell also announced its Venue smartphone, which has a 4.1-inch screen and an 8-megapixel camera.

No word yet on release date, price, or if there will be a consumer version.

3G Data Card Services – BSNL Vs Tata Vs Airtel Vs Reliance

Admin — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 09:55:00 +0000

Last month, I wrote post about BSNL, Tata, Airtel & Reliance data card comparison and I got lots of comments from users so I decide to write about these vendors 3G technologies. In the market, Tata indicom photon 3G and Reliance Netconnect 3G, Airtel 3G and BSNL 3G are already available but which one is best to choose? Advertising campaign of various Internet service providers create confusion among customers to select a service. Hence the 3G internet was always most awaited in India because it just does not mean higher speed but also means revolution following which all around the world there would be more business transactions and more networking.

Reliance Netconnect Plus

Reliance Communications, India’s second-biggest mobile operator, launched its 3G services in India. The company said it would cover all its 13 zones by the end of March next year. RCom said that it was targeting a national footprint of 3G services through associations with other “like minded, quality 3G licensees” in the remaining nine telecoms zones during the course of next year. The company has launched 3G services in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkatta and Chandigarh.

Here we bring you the latest 3G plans and pricing from Reliance.

Tata Docomo 3G

Tata DoCoMo became the first private telecom firm to launch 3G mobile services in the country. Tata Teleservices, which has Japanese firm DoCoMo as partner launched 3G mobile services in nine circles, of Kerala, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh (including Chhattisgarh), Rajasthan, Gujarat, UP (West), Punjab, Haryana and Maharashtra in the auction held recently enabling subscribers to access high speed Internet and video telephony.

Tata Docomo in India has actually started off with an initial free internet offer limited to the first 7days. Following this the plans available start at Rs 750 per month for the 3.6Mbps Plan along with which you get upto Rs 1250 worth of voice calls. This looks a good option but for users who get this new SIM for the sake of high speed internet these free voice or video calls is useless. The main reason behind this is that normally the voice calls are already under Per Second Billing which means that you obviously are already getting calls for cheap hence there is no point paying high for the sake of huge free calls package.

BSNL3G Card

BSNL is committed to taking India into the next league of telecom supremacy by providing technologically advanced 3G Mobile services provider Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) has crossed the landmark of 20 Lakh 3G Mobile and Data subscribers in India. It has been able to launch 3G network on Pan India basis except Delhi and Mumbai (MTNL service area).

BSNL has provided various advanced services like High Speed Wireless 3G Broadband, Video Calling, Mobile TV, Music, Video Download etc. At present BSNL had 3G coverage in 675 cities and will expand 3G services to 120 more cities across India by January 2011.

Creating a paradigm shift in the digital communications, BSNL recently launched affordable unlimited 3G Plan just at Rs. 700 in India. By making 3G services affordable with lowest Voice call and Video call charges as well as High Speed 3G Wireless Broadband Data HSDPA connectivity at 1 paisa for 10KB in India.

The cost of this BSNL Micro SIM Kit will be Rs. 100 (Rs. 30 for the Micro sim and Rs. 70 for the 3G FRC Starter Plan).The BSNL Micro SIM card and 3G tariff plans for Apple Devices will be available from BSNL CSC in 3G Services area only.

Airtel 3G

Airtel had launched its 3G mobile services successfully bid for 13 zones including key cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad on a test basis. These cities account for 21 per cent of data traffic in the country. They are also most likely to have early adopters who are eagerly waiting to get their hand(set)s on 3G. Incidentally, the 13 circles also account for 68% of the telco’s revenue market share.

Airtel‘s 3G services, will usher in a new era of unique life style products. The offerings will be specifically targeted towards mobile broadband, given the enhanced speed and user experience which the 3G technology enables. The partners will play a catalyst role in enhancing the customer experience and the data usage habits in the country. In addition to being HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Access) ready from launch, the 3G network will support world class user data speeds and enhanced mobile broadband user experience. High Speed Packet Access plus enables high peak user throughput which are multiple times higher than those supported in current 2G networks.

Data Card War – BSNL Vs Tata Vs Airtel Vs Reliance

Admin — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 08:09:03 +0000

In India, 3G is buzzing everywhere like Tata indicom photon 3G and Reliance Netconnect 3G, BSNL 3G. What about the other data cards like: EVDO BSNL, Tata Photon Plus etc. Let me take a opportunity to present them before they wash off from market with the entrance of 3G technology.

There are two types of data card available in India:

High speed data cards: All data card except 1x, which gives more speed are high speed data card. These data card like bsnl evdo data card 2.4 MBPS or reliance data card 3.5 MBPS comes under this category.
Low speed data cards: All 1x data card which gives speed from 144 kbps to 250 kbps are comes under low speed data cards.

Note: Many of the below mentioned options must be verified in different areas, in your area the results may differ.

Reliance NetConnect Plus:
Reliance is currently the best wireless connection in India which can be used for both Reliance Data Card Netconnect laptops and desktops and the monthly subscriptions start from just 400 Rs/month unlimited plans for every month and currently a promotional offer is running where in a free data card is offered. The download speeds are ranging from 15-25kbps when you opt in for unlimited data download package which is the best download speed offered in India on wireless internet connections.

Tariffs:

Upto 800 Rs per month for 3 GB
1100 Rs for 10 GB
1500 for 15 GB

Advantages:

Well Coverage
National Roaming

Disadvantages:
Advertised 3.1 mbps on limited cities only (1.5 to 2 mbps practically) Other places it’s only 144 Kbps(Basic CDMA 1X network).

Tata Indicom Photon:
Tata indicom broadband offers a internet compatible connection for laptops and PC’s where in you can surf internet anywhere in India it definitely depends on the area in which you live, If nothing else is available and TATA indicom WLL phone has good reception there is nothing wrong in selecting TATA Indicom’s WLL service walky with internet speeds up to 153 kbps though the practical speed is 20kbps only. The USB modem rental starts from 99Rs/month with time based and data based plans.

Tariff:
- Upto 1500 for 15 GB only 50 Paise per mb beyond fair use limit.

Advantages:

Better upload/download speeds.
Works easily with Linux.

Disadvantages:
- Limited cities coverage

BSNL EVDO:
BSNL has burnt in the phone number and hence the EVDO comes with a phone number on it. The user id is the phone number prefixed with area code and password is typically the last 4 digits of the phone number. You can take Bsnl 2.4 mbps data cards on rent or you can by it directly. BSNL’s GPRS / EDGE in postpaid is very cheap starting at Rs 150 with unlimited option of Rs 349. With its WLL data cards it offers unlimited internet faster than dialup for just Rs 250 per month and this was much better than I expected even in a rural area. But some part of country it is not getting good responses. I think tower may be far from the original location.

Tariff:
650 Rs month for unlimited plan

Advantages:

Well connectivity
Unlimited usage
Attractive Tariff

Disadvantages:
Poor customer service

Airtel Data Card:
Airtel’s Wireless enables Internet, Email, and Office applications with real-time secure VPN access to corporate applications whilst on the move. Airtel Data Card is the superior PC Data Card solution which delivers wireless internet capabilities to laptops and notebooks, by providing EDGE and GPRS technologies in a single PC Card package. That time it was on unlimited plans of 500 rs per month. But this data card was not working in other states. Still it’ was very unsatisfied that time but you can check the performance of data card in your region.

Admin — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 09:12:41 +0000

USAF last Sunday at 5:58pm, launched NRO LR-32, a secret US military spy satellite. It was so massive that it required Delta IV Heavy rocket to reach orbit. In fact, this mysterious spacecraft is the largest satellite in the world.

According to the National Reconnaissance Office’s Director Bruce Carlson, NRO LR-32 is indeed “the largest satellite in the world”. No official information has been published, but it is believed to be an eavesdropping satellite positioned high above the equator in geosynchronous orbit with a antenna the size of a football field once it’s extended in orbit. Mashable wrote that it’s mission will be to gather intelligence for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office.

FYI: The Delta IV Heavy is capable of producing 1.9 million pounds of thrust using its three engines and it’s the largest rocket in the world in it’s size.
