Expected to be priced at $200, $50 cheaper than original Zune. Seems like slimmed down version of the original Zune.
Microsoft is certainly trying hard but don't really think it is giving good competition to Apple's iPod. iPod is still a class apart!

I have come across quite a few sites now which provide access to live television. This one shows Star, Zee , Sony and many more... Try it, Username:Zaphod,pass:zaphod.

Don't know how legal they are but are certainly useful if you want to checkout what's happening on the television while sitting on your computer!

Sleek looks with no key pad! just like the apple iPhone. Of course, iPod not being a part of it would be a huge miss!

Amazing phone! A 2 megapixel camera and killer looks. Would have loved to own one!. Though, at ~17,000 it is beyond what I would spend on a phone!

Miscellaneous: At 30, he is richer than most IIT/ IIM grads

Some sort of a blog published by rediff. At some point during his engineering he realized that he had to do something in life. Worked hard to get out of the mess he was in and did that pretty well... but still left with some angst gainst IITs and IIMs. Found it to be an interesting story, so posting it!
