India’s $35 Tablet Runs on Google’s Android OS ?

I am sure you guys have already noticed the Indian government’s plan to launch a $35 tablet PC for students. They are planning to bring it down to $10 in near future. Many of the big gadget websites have covered it.

Is this tablet running on Android Operating system by Google ? Or a modified version of it ? Okay, lets check out two screenshots.

First Screenshot is from a random Android phone. Search android UI in Google and you will find many of them.

Now, let us see how a screen capture from a video report on a National channel about our Indian tablet, ( wish it had a name !! ).

Another Geek Post, But I Am Aorry Flipboard Is Too Awesome

Okay guys, I tried to stop posting techhy things here. I am doing enough of it here. But, I won’t get sleep without posting this one at least today. This picture is my wallpaper now.

This thing makes me feel like, hmm .. I should get an iPad soon. ( So, if there is anyone getting ready to buy me a gift, you know what to buy )

Now, here is the deal. Flipboard is an iPad app which will present your social media content in a magazine format. Watch the video to know how it looks like, and once you are done, tell me if you feel like getting an iPad :)

I have no idea when they are planning to release it in India, the iPad that is,  and how much it is going to cost, but iPad looks like a good deal to me. Anyone else planning to buy one ? Can I borrow the money please ? :D

It’s Time, Again …

It’s been a while since I wrote something here. I did blog a couple of entries last month, but nothing of real writing happened here for a quite long time. If I have to apologize to someone, it’s just me, because, I was hurting myself by not writing anything here.

Everything started from this blog ( even though it changed the domain name couple of times, and even the blog name ). I got the energy and the passion to do other blogs, like the one I am concentrating on now, from this very old personal blog of mine. Slowly, it lost the personal touch, and ended up being something, which I don’t have a name to call.

I don’t have a fix for it yet, I am not going to make any big promises to myself, or you. I am trying again, to give this blog a personal touch, and bring it back to life. I may not be able to write frequently, most of my posts may become nothing but ramblings, but still, its good to be here, in good company.

I’ve to thank “Wake Up Sid” here. I saw this movie 7th time today. I am not getting bored with this movie at all. For some reason, I am getting more and more attracted to it, and it always gives me a positive energy and inspiration to do something fresh and cool, this crude rambling being one of them !
