Davis Nayagam Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I have a NOKIA N73ME. I updated the firmware yesterday and it was working fine. Today it got switched off automatically and when I switched it ON, it asked for Memory card password. I forgot whether I changed the password so I tried all the possible passwords but couldn't unlock it. When I went to MENU>MEMORY, there it said like memory card locked. Now what should I do to unlock it? My PC has virus so will that be the reason for it? Don't know whether I should ask this in the Mobile phone Thread. Sorry if I had posted in the wrong section.. Please help.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rAgHaV Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm about to buy a full hdtv for my Ps3 which i got a weak ago n my budget is around 70000, i came across this model (Sony Bravia W Series - KLV-32W400A) plz tell me if this is a good lcd, i dont know anything about contrast ratio response time etc so plz tell me if it has good response time etc, Also ive heard that no one can differentiate between 720p or 1080p if the size of the tv is 32 inch or smaller. if one cannot differentiate then plz recommend a good 40 inch hd ready samsung or sony lcd which is in my budget as i wont be able to afford a 40 or 36 inch full hdtv, the tv will be placed n my room which isnt a big one so viewing distance will be between 6 - 8 feet and im also interested in Samsung Series6 32 inch lcd LA32A650A1 so plz tell me which one will give better performance.

Aftrunner Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 ^^ @Ragahav If you are planning on buying a 32 inch TV dont bother with full HD. Go to any decent TV store (there are quite a few in Lajpat nagar, Malviya nagar) and they can play some blu ray films for you. Check them on both 720p and 1080p screen and I bet money that you wont spot the differance in details. 1080p is a waste of money at that size, you are better off buying a 32 inch 720p TV and a good home theatre set instead. If you are viewing at 6-8 feet you can go for a 32 or a 37 inch model. Personally I am using a 32 incher at 6-8 feet myself and its perfect for that size/range. I'd recommend Samsung series 4 or a series 5 32 incher above a sony model (purely for a price/performance reason). However bottom line is the Samsung series 4, 5 and Sony W series are all very good tellys and you cant go wrong with either one. For a budget of 70 I would go with a Samsung series 5 (32 inches) + a good set of 5.1 HT speakers. You can easliy fit that into 70k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lithuvien Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 How would you guys rate the Dell Studio laptop with the following specs (and price): Dell Studio 15 Laptop Keyboard Dell Keyboard with Touchpad (English) Palmrest Option Standard Palmrest Base System Intel® Core2 Duo Processor T5850 Operating System Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium 32 bit SP1 Edition (English) Color Kits Midnight Blue Colour with Black U-Trim 4GB ( 2 X 2048MB ) Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM Hard Drives 250GB SATA Hard Drive Hard Drive Partition Hard Drive Partition, Primary Size 40GB in C Drive, Remainder in D Drive Internal Optical Drive Internal 8X DVD + /-RW Combination Drive with dual layer write capabilities Video Card 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450 Wireless Network Solution Dell Wireless 1397 802.11b/g Half Mini Card Audio Solution Integrated Sound Blaster Audigy ADVANCED HD Audio Software Primary Battery 6-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery 1 Carry Case No Case Total Amount Rs 48,043.00 Total Amount Before Tax Rs 48,043.00 CD/CVD/Excise Duty Rs 5,938.11 VAT - 4% Rs 2,159.24 Total Amount Before OCTROI TAX Rs 56,140.35 OCTROI - 3% Rs 1,684.21 Total Tax Rs 9,781.56 Total Amount After Tax Rs 57,824.56 If you know of a better laptop less than 60K and available in India, do tell me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yep series 5 is full HD (good price range for it though), I have a series 4 LCD which is HD ready (fantastic TV BTW). I even wrote a review for it over at Techenclave. S series is a little old from Sony. Instead of that I will recommend getting the Series 4 from Samsung (better price and better picture from what I could see in the showroom and a lot of connectivity options). I got it for about 37K a couple of months back. Should be cheaper now. For a 720P TV I felt that Samsung series 4 was the best option. But always I will recommend you to go over to a showroom and see which one do you like. BTW keep one thing in mind when you go to the showroom. They stack all the 32 inch Tvs next to the 40, 42 inch Tvs to make the 32 inch tvs look tiny so you will want to buy the more expensive ones. Dont fall for that optical illusion. A 32 inch TV is large enough for about 6-8 feet or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAPT0R Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 My E90 that I bought on august 5 was defective, I returned it to the Company, the company has only one thing to say, we dont have that model in stock....! The Middle man between the Dealer and Me is a Old frn of mine....he just called me up and said that the Dealer is ready to give me some other model of the same or lesser price if I want and the Delay is not going to have any forseen end....! The Dealer is offering " Iphone " or " N 95 " to me, he didnt talk about refund.... what should i do, any suggestions?? ( Arjun u hv used the phone pls reply regarding this ) i dnot have much knowledge regarding Iphone I have heard mixed reviews about it so not sure to get it or not...moreover I was really fed up of E90 in few days, I like Touch screen then those communicator.... hws Iphone is worth that much money or shouldi even ask 4 refund ? or ask for sm other model... Suggestions please!... E91 is a brilliant phone! i suggest you provide the company with your bill and they'l surely replace your phone! if you din't like it much, i suggest you exchange it for the E70 which is about 20k and some other phone! this way, you'l be using the best phone in the market (E71) and you'l also have a spare phone!

Also find out someone who works for Dell. Those guys can get you a really good discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I got a PS3 so I don't think I will go back to PC gaming that much. All I have is old games like Warcraft, Ceaser, Neverwinter Nights and PS1 games with emulators. Does one really need the 8600 for playing these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
