Steve Jobs given 6 weeks to live?
Steve Jobs had been recently photographed in front of a Critical Care Center looking seriously frail. Since I don't have any solid links I haven't posted any here but rumours are about that he's in a terminal stage of pancreatic cancer and that he's given 6 weeks to live.
Hope all this is false, and that he will continue to lead Apple for many more years with his keynotes that has become the face of the company.
Google is your friend.

NokiaSoft: Inside Man - Stephen Elop?
It's no secret that the new Nokia+Microsoft deal is tilted in the favor of boosting Microsoft and merely stabilising Nokia. Does this have anything to do with Stephen Elop?
The Nokia chairmans tactic of bringing in Stephen from Microsoft must have been part of the grand scheme of things. Obviously Mr. Stepehen Elop stands a much better chance of securing a deal between the two companies - and he did a good job as well.

Nokia & Microsoft at it together; Qt orphaned?
Nokia, after years of nurturing and growing it's Symbian OS along with Maemo and MeeGo is dumping it all in the favor of Windows Mobile 7. With this Nokia is also orphaining it's baby, Qt.
What this means for the layman is this, all Nokias budget phones will remain on Symbian for some more since it remains the OS of choice for cheap phones under Nokia. But Indian and Chinese manufacturers are bringing out their own cheap phones that have better value.
High end phones will migrate to Windows 7 Mobile. This means Symbian ^3 is gonna go down the drain. And MeeGo remains a ?
Open letter by Stephen Elop and Steve Ballmer
Nokia and Microsoft have entered into a non-binding term sheet. The planned partnership remains subject to negotiations and execution of the definitive agreements by the parties and there can be no assurances that the definitive agreements would be entered into.

Some things are for sure:
• Nokia will adopt Windows Phone as its primary smartphone strategy, innovating on top of the platform in areas such as imaging, where Nokia is a market leader.
• Nokia will help drive and define the future of Windows Phone. Nokia will contribute its expertise on hardware design, language support, and help bring Windows Phone to a larger range of price points, market segments and geographies.

Y-Browser is a file manager for Symbian OS devices. It implements most standard features on files (such as copy, cut, paste, etc) & folders (create, remove, etc) and it allows you to work with "hidden, system" folders. Its addons are very unique compared to other free file managers (like SExplorer or SysExplorer), because they allow you to save to the filesystem files that were sent via Bluetooth and got stuck in Messaging.
4. DivX Player

The Alienware M11xR2 gaming rig
Alienware is the world's largest boutique brand, offering high-performance systems for gamers and enthusiasts.
The M11xR2 is the world's smallest gaming rig. Or you could say that is the most powerfull 11" laptop in the market.
Overview
Processor
The processing power starts with a core2duo for the cheapest 599$ model. Don't even think of buying that crap. You'd be better going for the i5 520UM or the i7 640UM. Both of these processors are physically dual core but have 3 and 5 virtual cores respectively - giving them that much needed performance edge over the competition. What's better is that they are both ULV processors meaning they worl at ultra low voltages. This translates to about half the power consumption of a regular CPU. They have Intel's new TurboBoost technology as well which bumps up clock speeds as required. And the icing on the cake is that they are heavily overclockable.
RAM
The RAM options is 4GB DDR3 and 8GB DDR3. Go for the 4GB because anything above that is useless unless you have other applications that need RAM. Please Note that there is currently no game in the market that requires 8 gigs of ram - believe me.
Storage
Harddisks come in various capacities and also are available as SSD. But it's better to buy the cheapesy harddisk option and then later buy an aftermarket SSD becaise the Dell SSDs can get extremely costly.
Graphics processor
The GPU is fixed for now and there is no option ro change it because it's soldered onto the motherboard. But it does come with 1GB DDR3 so you shpuld be content as it runs most current games at decent rates.
Alien FX
Alien FX comes as standard as well. For those of you who are new, AlienFX is what lights up the computer and includes the front lighted bumpers the alien head on the display panel and the interior alienware logo.
Alienware also ships with a custom nameplate.
How to flash meego onto the Nokia N900 and survive
Ok, so now we can multiboot an n900 onto maemo5 fremantle, meego harmattan, NITDroid, or BackTrack. Or you could load the custom kernel that provides USB host-mode. The N900 has come a long way since the initial buggy yucky laggy device that nokia had launched with a blast of hype.
But before you embark on the MeeGo journey with your N900, please keep in mind that this is still very much a developmental release and that it holds no value for an everyday users and if you think you fall under that category, its better to hold off.
Get it for free here! (Free Full Download)
In order to get it free you need to have the IMEI of your device ready so that the CIA can keep track of what you do with the MeeGo OS.
Have fun!

Mobile Number Portability - 2011
The first-ever opinion poll on MNP was conducted across 8 major cities(Delhi, Lucknow, Kolkata, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad), covering both men and women(4564 subscribers) older than 18 years, between DEC 15,2010 and JAN 10,2011.
Highlights Of The Survey:
Note#2 : Interviews were carried out using a fully structured questionnaire and the results were collated using appropriate statistical tools.
Source : HT-MARS SURVEY
Highlights Of The Survey:
- a significant number of subscribers are dissatisfied with their service providers – More than one out of six mobile phone subscribers (17.6%) want to switch over to another telecom company. Given India’s mobile subscriber base of more than 700 million, it could mean that up to 120 million people want to switch.
- Airtel(31.9%) and Vodafone Essar(19.6%) will gain the most – One out of three consumers who are considering switching want to sign up with Airtel, and one out of five who want to change will go to Vodafone Essar. Followed by others(13.7%), Idea Cellular(9.7%) and Aircel(8.5%).
- BSNL GSM, Reliance CDMA, Reliance GSM & Tata Indicom will be the losers in terms of subscriber base.
- The reason to port is equally shared between ‘dissatisfied with the service(49.1%)’ and ‘want to change just for the heck of it(50.9%)’.
- women make more loyal subscribers — 14.3% want to change compared to 18.8% men.
- most dissatisfied customers were found in Hyderabad(37.3%), followed by Delhi(23%) and Ahmedabad(19.6%)
- older customers(41-50 yrs : 18.7%) are more demanding subscribers whereas housewives(13.6%) constitute the ‘least demanding’ lot.
- Post-paid(19.3%) customers are more dissatisfied than the pre-paid(17.4%) ones
Note#2 : Interviews were carried out using a fully structured questionnaire and the results were collated using appropriate statistical tools.
