Ma Shiny New N900

After waiting for the N8 and learning Qt.... I had to get a new touch to experiment Qt... I was hardpressed b/w N8 and N900 and finally decided on the N900. I dint get the N8 bcos N900 is a computer and N8 is not... U'll understand what I mean by this after the following pics. N8 may be better in terms of touch, battery life but.... nothing can beat the N900 not even Android or iPhone. By the way, if you are having a N900 and wondering whats this, its Easy Debian.

The legacy of the w900i, N95..etc when we first saw movies shot on a mobile is truly being carried on.. Video after the bump...

Microsoft India sets a Limca Record

Good News India and congratulations Microsoft employees @ Hyd. This neat logo took 1056 hours and 7000 wooden dominoes. Wow, when did a company last invest time and money on such deeds. Windows 7 did see success and its a whopping successful anniversary. But I wonder all the time about the poor vista users.... Vista should have been the win 7 in the first place... but you see as they say "Failure is a stepping stone to success".
