THE N95: This Really Is What Computers Have Become

Ever since it debuted back in September 2006 it has been one of the most anticipated phones ever and it does live upto its expectations.

PROS: The most noticeable features are the 5MP camera which records stunning Photos and Video(even in VGA resolution at 30 fps), inbuilt GPS, Wi-Fi(compatible with 802.11b/g standards and UPnP tech.), and Bluetooth (with A2DP), a 3.5mm audio jack and it its novel 2-way slider design.
CONS: Poor Battery life, no touchscreen and terribly sluggish performance makes it difficult to justify is high price tag.

The review of Nokia N95: Ok. It certainly is one the best phone NOKIA has ever produced. First the build. Packed with all these features one must think that it a must be a hefty pone but its not so. The N95 measures 3.8×2.1×0.8 and weighs a mere 120gm. Its unique 2-way slider is something we haven’t seen before though it only contains the music keys when sliding down. However there is a problem. When putting the phone into a pants pocket or even when thrown into a bag, it was too easy to slide open the phone.

After this point, Boris went off to find a new motherboard for his comp. Not much of a review, but hey, it’s something!

HD Wars Episode 43: Return of the Vivek

Frankly, I was pretty worried about this kid Vivek. Hadn’t heard from him so long that I thought he’d ceased to exist. Phew, good to know he’s alive. Here’s his take on the HD Wars…

Eeshan is a no-go when it comes to hardware. IMHO (hehe), Eeshan tried his best to stuff his FDD power cable into his SATA HDD. This is possible because both have 4 pins and, don’t forget, Eeshan is ****. Many times, amateurs believe that it just isn’t fitting, and applying brains rather than brain cause lovely fireworks.

P.S. If I’m wrong, forgive me, because I haven’t been able to follow the proceedings of the war very efficiently. But the hardware guy has to give his opinion.

Hmmm. Mixing up the 4-pins. Possible, although sane people don’t do that. Also, from the photos he’d put up, I don’t remember correctly but I don’t think his SATA was 4-pin. Correct me if I’m wrong, I’m in no mood to check it again. And then, he’d insisted that it was 10 / 8 pin. Oh well, the hardware guy’s spoken (and joined my blahg too) at last!
