Just got it yesterday as a forwarded mail from my friend Honeyking…and thought of sharing it with you all
Interesting equation
Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Pigs = eat + sleep
Hence, Human = Pigs + work + enjoy
If, Human – enjoy = Pigs + work
In other words,
Human that don’t know enjoy = pigs that work

Many of my readers would have read my initial thoughts on Lenovo 3000 Y410, so here I am almost a year on with some of my mixed thoughts on it. First major performance hardware wise its been good. The only gripe was the dvd burner which has to be replaced because of its awful noise but the replacement became a joke when the service center guys replaced it with a combo drive . After some minor hassling with Lenovo Support I got it replaced at my office itself since the nearest Lenovo center is 70 kms away. Now I’ve problem with card reader which I think has some broken part (think its my fault) which I hope to get it replaced. I am also hoping to get a 2 year warranty extension for Rs. 5,500/- (110$) which doesn’t cover battery and adaptor mainly in lieu of the problems I had this previous months.

Even though I didn’t this type of problems with my Acer TravelMate , the Lenovo build quality has so far been quite excellent and their service support seems impeccable. And this also been a year with Windows Vista Home Basic which came preloaded with it . I haven’t even formatted it once even though its sometimes Buggy behaviour has tested my patience more than once in this past year. I was thinking about upgrading it to Home Premium but it sounds expensive and the ever increasing news of Windows 7 and various Linux flavors like Ubuntu, Fedora has made me think twice. If you have your own thoughts / issues to share with please do post your comments 
What would I wished my lenovo 3000 y410 had : A internal microphone, a faster processor and to top it all a graphics card [ wishful thinking I know ]

So for the last few days I came across two of my friend’s Nokia own Touch screen phone 5800 running on the Symbian Series 60 5th edition. Curios to see how Nokia’s touch screen phone will be and seeing a Nokia touchscreen phone a long time after 7710. Here are some of my initial thoughts on the phone.
- One seeing the phone its quite OK in its size and weight, but the fit and finish doesn’t reflect of a high end phone. Still at 20,500 rs (420$) its comparatively cheaper than Iphone / Omnia / HTC Touch 3G
- The screen resolution of 640 x 360 pixels is nice and bright to view at
- The touch screen response is quite good but still sometimes it didn’t quite respond to my touch. The touch swipes could have been better when viewing pictures and in some areas like handwriting, scrolling and playing games the stylus is the better option
- The User Interface is plain and does the job kind of stuff with no fancy icons & effects. But the speed of the phone is quite good
- The 3.2 MP camera was good but didn’t check out its full range of snaps and video shooting features
- The onscreen QWERTY keypad was nice and easy to use
- The screen orientation feature was quite smooth is changing over and sometimes very sensitive (irking me a bit)
- Music quality was good but surprisingly not loud as other Nokia phones. The media player was same as that of other symbian series 60 phones
- Applications were quite sparse with no document viewer, dictionary, pdf viewer and there were only two games but their graphics were quite nice.
- The box had the usual stuff along with 8 GB micro SD card, TV out cable, additional stylus and Sennheisser headphones (FREE)
I might add some of my thoughts about 5800 much later when I get to use it more. As always your views / comments are always welcome.
