VC’s Techie CockTail

I have been a lifelong user of what’s now called just plain simple CellPhone, I have never been a fan of so called smartphones ,but now times have changed smartphones are more compact (one of my biggest gripes is their size) and faster than ever before. But still I dont have the need for a smartphone running around with e-mails zipping into my box for every minute.

Anyway I always thought it would be cool to have a ordinary phone (Java based like my SE K550i) to have the capability to read files like pdf, doc, worksheets. I know Samsung phones have a Java based Picsel viewer software to do this, so after a long time I was pleased to find out there is a software called MobilePDF, MobileDOC, MobileZIP (compression utility) for Java based phones.

So I downloaded trial version of MobilePDF and used it. First and foremost it worked. But opening and scrolling through the pages of a pdf were slow. If anyone interested in making your Cellphone smarter here is the site

Recently I came across a article in Chip-India magazine,how to get most out of Nero Burning software. There I read how Nero could be used to check out the quality of blank DVD media. In this age, when a blank DVD and CD media are available at almost the same rates I think this page here with all the classes of DVD media and how to check them is a valuable informational tool.

Especially who want to back-up their media for a long time in a safe manner should be able to cough up some extra dough so that they don’t end up in a situation where their precious DVD full of precious photos does not play properly after 6 months !!!!!

In this month Gadget & Gizmo news, here is a new flavor of Linux called “Damn Small Linux” which can run from even a thumb drive because of its small size (to be exact 50 MB). It has basic applications like Browser, E-Mail Client, Multimedia player, PDF viewer,IM, Spreadsheet etc ….hopefully it will be a eyeopener to people who havent experienced linux before …..

And for people who have heard about Nokia replacing their faulty batteries, you can check you whether you need a replacement by following the link here.
