Here comes an attempt from Tata Indicom to lure customers with their postpaid plan named: Do More 0123 Plan. The details are:
Tata Teleservices (Maharashtra) Limited (TTML) announced the launch of its “Let’s Rock” pack, a low-cost student friendly prepaid plan. To begin with the details, the pack is priced for Rs. 299 and it comes along with three-year validity.
The usage details are:
• During the day i.e. from 0900-2100 hrs, all local calls from Tata to Tata will be charged at 20 paise per minute
• Tata to others will be charged at 60 paise per minute
• Local SMS will be charged at 20 paise
• STD calls will be charged at Rs. 2 per minute
• During the night i.e. from 2100-0900 hrs, all local calls from Tata to Tata will cost 10 paise per minute
• Tata to others will cost 30 paise per minute
• Local SMS will cost 20 paise
• STD calls will cost Rs 2 per minute
Tata Indicom Power 555 Plan is a postpaid plan that has been made to suit the users who make local calls to all networks. This one turns out to be different from the free calling plans, which normally allow calling to their own networks. Instead it allows free calls to all networks. This is how:

Beijing to get 3G wireless service by Olympics
| China Mobile Communications Corp. will offer the service using the locally-developed Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access, or TD-SCDMA, standard. | |
China Mobile Communications Corp. will offer the service using the locally-developed Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access, or TD-SCDMA, standard in collaboration with handsets supplied by South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co, the report stated. The service will not provide seamless compatibility with the 3G standards in use elsewhere in Asia, Europe and North America. Visitors to Beijing will find laptops running on WCDMA-based data cards, the European standard, will get much slower connection speeds as service will automatically draw down to a 2.5G technology. Visitors who acquire TD-SCDMA enabled phones or data cards may also experience glitches, as the service has reportedly suffered from irregular service quality, weak signals and limited coverage, report added. | |

Nokia outlines initatives for rural markets
| The global leader in mobile communications outlined several unique initiatives for the non-urban markets in the areas of microfinance, distribution, agricultural services and after sales and support services | |
Nokia, the world leader in mobile communications, today reiterated that rural markets will be a focus area for its growth in India. The global leader in mobile communications outlined several unique initiatives for the non-urban markets in the areas of microfinance, distribution, agricultural services and after sales and support services. This was shared by Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, President and CEO of Nokia Corporation during his visit to India. “India’s consumption of mobility is growing at a phenomenal pace and it has the potential to make a major contribution to the country’s socio-economic development. Nokia recognises its responsibility and our aim will be to try and bring more consumers into the folds of mobility by maximizing value creation.” said Mr. Kallasvuo. Microfinancing: Making mobility more accessible: Nokia also announced that it is looking at Microfinance as a major initiative to increase mobile penetration in India from the current 26%. While India is adding 8 million subscribers a month, the country still has a huge untapped base constrained due to the initial cost of the mobile phone. The company is running pilots and trials to gauge consumer response in select markets and will soon come out with specific offerings to make buying a mobile phone more affordable. According to D Shivakumar, Vice President and Managing Director, Nokia India, “Language, content and affordability will play a critical role in connecting the next billion consumers. At Nokia, our endeavor is to drive down the accessibility barriers and make universal access a reality” With its large distribution network in the country and 9 Indian language support, the company is also providing agriculture based solutions catering to the vast farmer community in India. It is working with a host of content providers and has started programmes for farmers, which include providing solutions from information on market prices for agricultural products to weather updates to financing options. Distribution and Servicing in Rural India To access difficult and unserved markets, Nokia aims to leverage its distribution network to expand proactively into rural geographies. In addition to increasing its existing fleet of Rural vans, the company will also be reaching out to villages across India to showcase the relevant product portfolio and solutions to demystify the use of mobile technology. Several educational programmes will also be launched in the rural areas for consumers on the benefits of mobility. Recognising the crucial need for a rural Care network to match its expanding rural distribution footprint, Nokia is simultaneously focusing on increasing its Care Service Centres in the rural geographies. |
Beginner's Guide to Laptops
Laptops are today becoming the dominant method of computing, quickly supplanting bulky desktops. While this growth is no doubt beneficial to the consumer, buying a new laptop can be very confusing. There are plenty of good brands in the market today, with all kinds of specifications, sizes and weights.
How does a new buyer sift through all this and find the perfect laptop? How does one maintain the laptop for optimum use in the future? While there may be hundreds of opinions, there are some definite tips that can make the whole experience of purchasing and maintaining your laptop much smoother.
So here are the tips. While quite a few of these can be called “common sense”, the truth is that a lot of us (this writer included) tend to forget them. Hence, a refresher/reminder is never a bad thing.
Stuff To Look Out For
1) Price of Laptop and Nature of Work
These are the most important factors in the purchase decision. So why am I mentioning them? Well, I often see that when someone wants to purchase a laptop, they can be pretty vague about it, and come out with statements such as: "I want one under Rs 30,000".
If a lot of people seem confused as to the amount of money to spend, there are those who may be clear about their budget but can't make up their mind what they want to do with their laptop. There are even those who want to run Photoshop and edit images... on a laptop with a Celeron processor, bought for Rs 28,000.
Having undergone the same confusion myself, I'd suggest that you first make a budget and stick to it! While identifying a prospective machine, factor in all the taxes and cost of warranty. Also decide what you will be doing with your machine; this will help you pick the right configuration and keep costs low. Unnecessary upgrades can spiral the cost of a new laptop and take it well beyond your budget.
2) Size of Laptop
Laptops fall into various categories, based on their screen and weight. The most common sizes are 13", 14", 15" and 17". A smaller-screen laptop will generally be lighter, offer increased battery life, and be easily portable - at the cost of performance. A 17” laptop will give you increased performance and great features, but at the cost of battery life and portability. The 14" and 15" screens are aimed at the mainstream and offer a good balance of features, weight, and good battery life. Keep this in mind while making your choice.
3) Processing Power, Storage and Memory, and Discrete Graphics
i) Processing Power
Dual-core laptops have been around for a while now and their prices have dropped to well below Rs 30,000. While Intel rolls out a new mobile platform every six months or so, the performance increase in every subsequent generation is just around 7 percent. Keeping this in mind, I would suggest getting any laptop that has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor or an AMD X2 processor. Stay away from single-core processors. These have outlived their utility and are almost obsolete.
ii) Storage and Memory
This section refers to how much HDD space you have and the amount of RAM your system packs in. Most budget laptops today come with a minimum of 160GB of disk space and this is ideal for most users. Make sure your laptop has at least this much. And RAM is vital for multitasking. Though most machines come with 1GB minimum, this is inadequate for Windows Vista. I'd suggest a minimum of 2GB of system memory as this will help increase productivity.
iii) Discrete Graphics
Batteries are generally classified based on the number of cells. They come in 4-cell, 6-cell and 9-cell versions. While 4-cell jobs make the laptop lighter, they offer lower battery life. 6-cell battery is the mainstream; they are of medium weight and last around 2½ hours on a full charge. 9-cell batteries increase the weight of a laptop dramatically, but offer significantly enhanced battery life. So choose wisely.
5) Connectivity Options
This refers to various peripheral connectivity options such as USB, Ethernet and Firewire. Most laptops come with a standard set; but make sure your laptop has at least 3 USB ports and a VGA/DVI port. On the wireless connectivity front 802.11 a/b/g should be offered as standard. If there is an option to upgrade to 802.11n, get it as it offers better speeds. Also make sure Bluetooth 2.0 EDR is present, as this is useful for transferring files between phone and laptop.
6) Warranty Options
All laptop manufacturers offer extended warranties on their products. A standard one-year warranty will include all repairs and any manufacturing defects. However, after this period, any problem that crops up could lead to expensive repairs. To alleviate this, look at getting an extended warranty so that parts and manufacturing defects are covered for a longer period of time. These warranty packs are normally available on a paid basis.
Stuff To Do After Purchasing
1) Uninstall Crapware
The first thing that you will notice on booting your new laptop is the amount of trial programs, useless power management applications, and "productivity tools" that manufacturers love to throw at us. These annoying programs are called crapware. Simply uninstall them and use your favorite applications instead.
2) Disable Unnecessary Services
This is a rather advanced step. Windows works on what is called "Services". These run in the background and are often necessary for other applications, but there are some services that hog memory and are generally not needed. Disabling these frees up system memory and increases your machine’s responsiveness. See this link for details.
Stuff To Do By Way Of Long-term Maintenance
Though laptop batteries are pretty tolerant of abuse and don’t wear out easily, they do lose their effectiveness if they are not treated right. A simple way of avoiding this pitfall is by discharging your battery completely every once a while. Don’t overcharge the battery, and if you are not using the laptop unplug it from the mains.

For all you mobile maniacs out there, here's the scoop - the 3G Apple iPhone or the iPhone 3G as it’s being called, has now been officially launched. The reports I have, all seem to state that the attendees at Steve Jobs’ Keynote speech were somewhat thrilled and relieved that the speculation and rumor mongering of what the new iPhone would look like and would incorporate was now put to rest.

Nokia Goes Supernova With 4 New Handsets
Nokia has unveiled a new range of mobile phones called Supernova, aimed at the style conscious individuals who aren’t just interested in style but functionality as well.
This new range of handsets will take users back to those good old days where you could change the covers of your handset and make it as colorful and jazzy as you please. The four new handsets launched in this range include:
Nokia 7610 Supernova
This handset features a slide design and smooth curves, so don’t confuse it with the previous 7610 candy bar handset with the odd keypad. This handset offers Xpress-On covers in a choice of a set of 'steel blue' and 'red' covers offset by a muted gray front surface, or 'bright lilac' and 'steel blue' contrasted against a pristine white front surface. The innovative 'Theme Colorizer' feature lets people identify and capture any color and further tailor a look by applying captured colors to the phone's key illumination and wallpaper.
