Apple i-Phone

Check out the new Apple I Phone.

Its got two memory cards of 4 GB and 8 GB memory.

Check out the specification

You can flip through the albums like you are flipping pages.

Some of the features are too cool. If you are looking at a photo while the phone is vertical and you change the position of the phone to horizontal, the picture automatically changes to horizontal mode.




It is one of the best phones to use the internet. Very much compatible with Google Tools. Google Maps and all that. Check out the Washington Pillar thing by Google Maps. If you are watching a video on the phone and then a call comes, automatically the video is paused and the lights go dim when the phone is near your ear.

You still have the cool BOSE earphones just that a speaker is now attached to the earphones.

The 8 GB thing is priced at $599 and the 4 GB thing is priced at $ 499.


When you have to charge it all you need to do is link it to the iTunes. It is a I-Pod, Phone and a computer in one. THATS IT !!!!

Its being released in US in June 2007 and December 2007 in Europe. Asian market will wait till early next year.

Apple targets a market share of 10 million units in the year 2008. These guys have a great vision. I believe thats why they are what they are.

Premier Hockey League is in Chennai

Premier Hockey League, is being played in Chennai between the top seven teams of India. All the seven teams have players of different countries, some 50 players across the globe have come to India this time.

We went to watch few matches. Trupti supports Maratha Warriors and Bangalore Lions. Bloody Kannadiga Lions are playing very good. They have won all their matches.



Lions having a team talk during the match against Marathas. The match was on Saturday and it got extended to extra time. Len Aiyappa scored the winning goal.



Len Aiyappa drag-flicks the goal.


Trupti with the Pakistan Super Star "Rehan Butt". Rehan Plays for the Lions.

Man of the match Len Aiyappa (Saturday's Match)

We turned up for the match against Sher-e-Jalandhar and Maratha Warriors on Sunday evening also. Ashwin is back from London for a few weeks and we dragged him along.

Marathas won this match in Extratime and Trupti was again jumping with joy that her team won. She Imran Warsi made a superb pass and Shivender Singh was good in the D-Box to score the goal. We all took photo with Warsi after the match. He was dead tierd but was very cool for him to stand after the game for the fans. I clicked a photo with saying "ready" and he made a face like "What??? You didnt let me pose" Had to click again. Hehehehe... From Left to right : Ashiwn, Trupti, Warsi and Tullu. Tullu finally had a hair cut after two and half years.

We went to IIT to drop Tullu and saw these deer. Had to take photo. They look so calm.

IIT is heaven yaar !!!

Chalo more photos later.

Happy Birtday Chakkk Ji

Happy New Year everyone.

New year's eve was very special for me and it was also Trupti's birthday.

Sumita came home around 7.00 and Kelkar's (Indrajeet and Archana) were home around 8.30.
while Kelkar and I went out to get food for the eve, amrinder and deepu were on a secret mission, "TO GET BHABHIJI'S CAKE READY"

We watched some Tv and we all laughed at some Bihari dancing on TV. What all these guys show on Tv for the new year's eve. Anyways the Kelkar's discusssed how much they were in love in IIT and how much fun they are having now. Both of them drunk. He He He He He.

Kelkar even got some red wine from Nasik. It was good.

One suggestion. If you want to order vegetarian food "EDEN AT BESENT NAGAR" is the best. Lovely food they make. Please try the Methi Butter Naan, its delecious.

At 12 Amrinder got out the fireworks and also the cake. Trupti says CHAKK lots and so her cake read "HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAKKJI" hahahahahaaha

Sueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeper fun we had.


Happy Birthday Chakji


Cut the cake soon. We are hungry.


Thoda Khao Thoda Feko. Yeh switzerland ka cake hai.


Drunk gang.


Fireworks at 12 in the night.


My biwi in her new dress. Masttttt.

:-)

Happy Birthday Biwi. Oye Chakkkkkkkkkkkk.

Please check out the latest KBC Promotion Advert. Its the best advert I have ever seen. And for people who are Shahrukh fans they will love it.

Kabul Express - Aacha Film. I-Like is Stupid

Kabul Express is a laugh riot.


Arshad Warsi is too good. He had these oneliners with weird faces that made me laugh a lot. He has one scene where he and a Taliban fighter argue about who is the best all rounder?? Kapil Paaji or Imran Khan. With a gun on his head and trigger in the Taliban fighter's hand, he has the balls to talk and even argue, how Kapil was better than Imran Khan. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.

They ask for a taxi and they get a ride on a tank. They ask for breakfast or lunch or dinner or a snack, they always get "Kebabs". Arshad carrys a pack of cigarettes and everyone in Afghanistan love Indian cigarettes and he hates sharing them. The movie is fun. :-))

Story is too good. Its more related to international politics and how Afghanistan has become a victim of it. How the children are suffering. How reporters can do nothing but hope, hope that one day the world would look at the cold desert of Afghanistan and be bold enough to say "yes we have brought misery to the people of Afghanistan". The photography is pretty good and would really appreciate the crew as they had the guts to make a movie in the war torn country.

There are no songs. Thankfully. Back ground music is by some new guy.

John Abraham should do a lot of stage dramas to improve his acting. He looks like a tree stujmp being paid Rs 3.0 crore for traveling to Afghanistan. Expressions man exprssions. Girls love you because of your looks but start acting now. Please.

The movie has emotional touches. The Taliban fighters emotional bondage with his daughter. Its also talks about the emotions of a non Indian muslim (with an AK 56 with him) telling an Indian muslim "you people don't understand Islam!!" Dont want to tell the story, unlike Babul this is pretty good. :-) The movie is a must watch.

Arzoon told me abt a website where I can download some mp3 songs and mp4 videos for free. Just wanted to discuss that. The site is I-Like.com. It has an exe file which when downloaded, adds a side bar to your I-Tunes.


You need to make a profile in I-like and then you will have things like; profile, playlist, friends, related, etc etc. If you get a new msg from I-Like or friem friends you can read them by logging in I-Like. You can add friends and then exchange music. Also once you are on the site you can download few songs which are free. You can listen to a lot of songs online. Like they are all stored in the database of I-Like. You can find people who have the same choice of songs as you have. If you are playing a Pink Floyd song it will tell you that you can also listen to Doors, Eagles, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones, etc.

If the song being played has a video you can view it through YouTube. You can't download songs for I-Pod.

Observation: It is a site good for people who have less songs, who want to exchange songs with fellow listeners on I-Like. I have tried it for two months and doesnt seem to test my grey cells. If you have a wide choice of music then it might be very helpful for you to exchange songs. People with a niche music following would not be of much help.

Conclusion: Not really of great help, I would prefer asking freinds in office for mp3 and mp4.

Montyyyyyyyy!!! Montyyyyyyyy!!! Montyyyyyyyy!!!

Monty Panesar and Sajid Mahmood are playing for England in the third Ashes test match. Guys from South Asian origin playing for England. Now we can say, we are going to rule you guys. Khi Khi Khi Khi.


Ok to be serious. Monty has screwed the Ozzys and that too royally. While I write this the score is 176 for 6 and monty has taken three Ozzys to the bed with him. Took wickets of Langer, Symonds and Gilly. Go Sardar gooooooooooooo.


This is what someone said on BBC.

He's done it! He's done it! Long live King Monty Panesar. The script, it seems, had already been written. First ball of Monty's second over, Justin Langer misses a pretty straight one and it takes out his middle stump. The bearded genius wheels away in jubilation - they've never seen anything like it before. He doesn't get close to a high five. Who cares, man?

Monty doesn't seem to be a great athelete but his sheer enthu to spin the bowl touches the whole cricket world.

and read this somewhere. The great Monty Panesar seduces Adam Gilchrist into a tentative push forward and the ball comes off bat and pad and is caught at short-leg by Ian Bell. Can we have a new vote for Sports Personality of the Year?

Toooo muchhhhhh. Who cares if India wins or loses in South Africa there is too much "Lick my ass, I am Sharad Powar. Lick my ass, I am KPS Gill. Lick my ass I am, Priyaranjan Das Munshi. No No lick my ass, I am Dalmiya" kind of politics in Indian sports. I just hate it in India.

I am going to follow Ashes. Go for it Pomsssssss.
