Java games for sony ericsson w200i mobile phone

Someone has shared his mobile phone's java games with others. His mobile phone seems to be sony ericsson w200i. That was interesting to me since i was also having the same w200 SE phone.

It was shocking to know that this nice little candy bar can even play 3D games!!! Wow, they are really cool 3D games. I would rate it as excellent, since i never expected that this little fellow can do this much. Below is the list of games shared by him (not me).

New Airtel Unlimited GPRS Plans

Earlier we had unlimited GPRS plans from Airtel at about 20 Rs/day. It was really a very good plan. My friend told me that he uses Airtel, only because of this unlimited GPRS plan. But that plan was withdrawn weeks back (may be because of unfair usage from some users ??). But Airtel faced severe critism because of this. I know a few who started thinking of taking connection from Vodafone or AirCel because of this!!

But now there is some good news for the heavy Airtel GPRS users. It has introduced a new plan which goes this way.
Rate : Rs 20/day
Usage limit : 8 MB/day
Cost beyond free usage : 20 Paise / 50 KB

To activate this do this:
Send DP to 56789 (tollfree)

But I still doubt that this will become popular?? As 8 MB limit per day is way too low from my point of view, since Aircel is giving unlimited GPRS for rs 17/day and Vodafone is giving the same at rs 19/day.

Enjoy !!

1000 Rs LAPTOP for Indian Students

Indian government has planned to provide laptops at Rs 1000 to professional-science programme students.

The government has allocated Rs 5000 Crore for this project.

There was also a news that BSNL is planning to provide free internet service (at 2 MBps!!!) for all citizens... Well India seems to be on its way to be a information super power!!

Specifications:

• Internet Browsing (Yes.. This is mainly meant for browsing internetonly)
• Plays audio and video.
• 256MB memory (RAM or HDD ??)
• OS should be some flavour of Linux

I guess this might look something like this... Below is one of the cheap laptops given to African Students.

Why Bill Gates decides to Sell OFF Microsoft? (hilarious)

Letter from Banta Singh of Punjab to Mr. Bill Gates of Microsoft

Subject: Problems with my new computer

Dear Mr. Bill Gates,

We have bought a computer for our home and we have found some problems, which I want to bring to your notice.

1. There is a button 'start' but there is no 'stop' button. We request you to check this.

2. We find there is 'Run' in the menu. One of my friends clicked 'run' he ran up to Amritsar ! So, we request you to change that to 'sit', so that we can click that by sitting.

3. One doubt is whether any 're-scooter' is available in system? I find only 're-cycle', but I own a scooter at my home.

4. There is 'Find' button but it is not working properly. My wife lost the door key and we tried a lot trace the key with this ' find' button, but was unable to trace. Please rectify this problem.

5. My child learnt 'Microsoft word' now he wants to learn 'Microsoft sentence', so when you will provide that?

6. I bought computer, CPU, mouse and keyboard, but there is only one icon which shows 'MY Computer': when you will provide the remaining items?

7. It is surprising that windows says 'MY Pictures' but there is not even a single photo of mine. So when will you keep my photo in that.

8. There is 'MICROSOFT OFFICE' what about 'MICROSOFT HOME' since I use the PC at home only.

9. You provided 'My Recent Documents'. When you will provide 'My Past Documents'?

10. You provide 'My Network Places'. For God sake please do not provide 'My Secret Places'. I do not want to let my wife know where I go after my office hours.

Regards,

Banta

Last one to Mr Bill Gates : Sir, how is it that your name is Gates but u are selling WINDOWS?

Note: I got this as an mail forward. Whoever wrote this has an excellent sense of humour....

iPhone in India : Poll result analysis

Yes.. These are the results and statistics for the poll featured on this blog.

"iPhone in india"

Results Dump:

Will you buy the much awaited and hyped iPhone, when it is officially released in India?

Definetely, yes! (11%)

Yes, but only if the price drops further! (40%)

If someone from US gifts me! (8%)

No..It is not worth the money and the hype! (20%)

No..I would go for other alternatives... (20%)

Note:

* This statistics is applicable to the elite population who can afford computer and internet connection.

* Since this is a technology blog, i assume that most of it's readers are techie people who have good interest in Internet and Technology.

Interesting Inferences and Statistics:

* It is certain that about 10% of the techies are ready to grab a piece when its officially released in india. (must be elites who can easily afford iPhone)

* It is certain that about 60% techies in india are crazy about the iphone,

* Nearly two-third of iPhone crazy population are sestitive to the price. They are ready to grab one if the price drops to indian levels. I would not give a second thought to get one if the price comes around 12,000 Rs.

* two-fifth of the whole techie population feel either iPhone is over hyped or believe that there are better alternatives to iPhone.
