The next big thing.



Today's mobile phones outshine others almost everyday. In such a competitive market one needs to remain above and always.

Motorola is a strong name in the mobile market. Nobody would be surprised by the previous statement as they are the mobile phone inventors. Even better, they gave the world the Razr which is still actually selling in huge numbers 5 years down the line. But Motorola lost is cutting edge after the Razr.

Profit dips, Month after month of losses, quarters after quarters of market share loss, loss in the market leadership, Firing of top management, company divide and sellout talks later comes another marvel from Motorola.

Ladies and gentleman, Please welcome The newest Motorola in town....... Motorola Zine ZN5.
For this one Motorola has gone all out to make sure they get back into the market. A collaboration with Kodak was what Motorola needed to capture the market of camera phones which they lost due to measly 2mp cameras outdone by Market toys of Nokia and somewhat capable Cybershot from SonyEricsson. What I am not much impressed from is the Moto JUIX software. It has great potential but loses out badly to the SE's flash based OS.

The Zine ZN5 boasts 5mp camera with Kodak lens providing 3x optical zoom, auto focus, Macro mode, ISO adjustments, in phone photo editing capabilities and VGA video recording at 30fps.
Other great features include 3.5mm audio jack, 2.4" QVGA screen, morphing keypad, TV-out and USB port with print support. Slight confusion hovers over wi-fi capability which will just make it all the more desirable.

I am actually waiting for this phone since 1 month but no concrete information was available. Pricing on release should be about 400-500 USD which will enable it to capture good market share and become another Razr for the Motorola. Another slew of great phones from Motorola are in the pipeline which makes sense enough for us to wait before jumping for Nokia's

When one plus one makes two.


Asus has recently gone on a rampage. What started with a Lamborghini VX1 notebook PC soon become a trend at the company. Some great products came to the market from the sharp brains. The Asus G1 and G2 made it big in the gaming market and the AGEIA Physx card is still the choice of high end gamers.

Now imagine what will happen when A great company just gets greater? Even better products. Asus recently announced their new GSM pocket PC with windows 6.1 last week. For starters, how does GPS sirfstar III, Micro SD HC card slot, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, wi-fi b/g, USB 2.0, dual camera, TI OMAP 2431 processor, Quad-band, Tri-band HSDPA and a 2.8 inch Display sound? wheeeew!!!! It sure is too much for a small device but Asus has made it possible.

Now for some extras. The phone has been made in partnership with LAMBORGHINI.......... While HTC pampered you with Touchflo, Neonode smothered you with Neno interface, IPhone brought in their Apple UI, Asus has also gone the extra mile along with Lamborghini to Make the phone much more special. A Windows mobile 6.1 has been enhanced with dual 3d UI for work and pleasure. The UI has been enhanced with graphic effects of Lamborghini cars such as tachometers, paddle shifters, engine sounds etc. It is more like a fusion of themes, gadgets and add-on's making for a breathtaking experience. Another great probable on this phone is the liberal use of carbon fibre.

Hope it makes debut soon on your shores.

Who's the sexiest????




The sexiest women lists have been a rage lately. FHM, Forbes, MAXIM, BBC and Man's World are just some of the known media moguls running the ranking game. So what's new? The inclusion of Katrina Kaif. Yes, Katrina Kaif has been voted as the sexiest woman alive by FHM.That's just for starters. How does it sound that katrina Kaif beat Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson to be ranked the best.

But another recent survey again by FHM has proclaimed Megan Fox (Yes, the transformers chick) to be the sexiest Woman alive.

So who gets the vote?????
