2 pointsInfibeam price seems to be the best for W169. Alternative suggestion if GSM+CDMA both active at the same time is not important to you.. LG Fathom VS 750 Rs 4,941 http://orders.ebay.i...id=190555593491 Many people have received Ebay India Global Easy Buy Rs 500 flat discount voucher in the mailbox today valid till 24th July . With that this will be net Rs 4,491.. What you get for only that much is unlocked GSM phone with QWERT Slider keyboard, 1 Ghz Processor, 800x480 Touchscreen, GPS, Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional, WiFi, 3.2 MP Camera. This phone is a world phone. So it can also work on CDMA networks.. (For CDMA, Will have to be programmed/unlocked/registered for use in India).

It is just unbelievably awesome. 3D actually works without glasses and eye strain. Initial Observations- 1. Build quality is top notch; better than Epic 2. 4.3" screen is brilliant 3. 3D photos watching is a pain on the eyes but movies is another matter all together 4. Though it is half the depth of Epic, feels heavier and solid like steel (though fully plastic) 5. Sound Volume seems lower than Epic 6. Soft buttons 100 times better than Epic (my main grouse); same like Incredible 7. Plastic Battery cover is like pappad but after closing feels solid 8. OTA to 2.3.3 (ver 1.13.651.7) has started automatically on wifi 9. Gingerbread + Sense interface is just awesome and beats any Samsung/Moto interface hollow 10. Watching Green Hornet in 3D (free download via wifi on the phone) is just F AWESOME. No Eye Strain at all. This truly has to be the biggest selling point of the phone that 3D in movies and games "actually" works on this phone. Volume is a little low (as was in Epic for movies). Headphones needed. 11. Downloaded all settings, HDR, PPP, PRL etc. in 5 minutes through Hetal (a big Thank YOU). Just waiting for MEID registration to complete. 12. The Lockscreen can be modified to many in-built themes. Default is set to weather. 13. GPS locking is about 5 times faster than Epic (as with all HTC's) 14. Wifi strength is also better than the Samsung's 15. 8GB micro sd bundled in box 16. Build quality of dedicated Camera button and 2d/3d mode is great 17. Qik Video Conferencing works great (tested over wifi) 18. Google sync did not work after software settings through cdma workshop were loaded. Had to do a factory reset to get it to start working. Factory reset did not spoil the software re-settings. 19. The Sense weather has more melodrama added with sound effects. 20. Dedicated Notification light on top. Algorithm is better than Samsung 21. 3D Movie - The Green Hornet and 3D Game - Spiderman, loaded by default (needs wifi) 22. Battery Life seems much better than Epic. Results here - http://www.rimweb.in...post__p__237741 23. New Update to 2.3.4 is now out and I received it OTA over WiFi (unrooted phone). It upgraded my Android Version to 2.3.4 and The Software number to 2.08.651.2. Details here - 24. After the new update, now you can take screen shots on EVO 3D by long pressing the power key and then the home button. Image will be in the gallery under camera Shots. Works even on unrooted phones now. Details here - What I dont like - 1. Low volume compared to Samsung hardware. Same was in Incredible where we solved it by 3rd party app. Will research more. Edit: With use for some days the sound seems to have opened up and increased by itself. Sound Test Video posted here - http://www.rimweb.in...post__p__237822 Seems more than sufficient to me now. 2. Screen brightness of S-AMOLED of EPIC is brighter than this 3D though very slightly. Nothing much to crib about. 3. Its heavier (170gms) than I anticipated. Maybe because of the humongous 1730maH battery (the highest capacity I have encountered). Its almost 60gms heavier than its competition Samsung Galaxy S2. It is even heavier than Epic (155gms) though it is thinner and easily pocket-able. 4. The Galaxy S2 is much slicker and sexier than this curvy babe. S2=Kareena; EVO3D=Silk Smitha 5. No headset in box 6. Lacks Kickstand aka EVO4G 7. 8GB Card is LESS by today's standards. Though 1GB RAM is standard. 8. Locked Bootloader. HTC has promised to send a software update by 1st week of August to unlock it.Therefore NO CyanogenMod ROM for EVO3D till it is unlocked.Edit : S-Off achieved; Bootloader Unlocked - http://www.rimweb.in...post__p__238042 Do the following immediately- 1. Change Proxy to 0.0.0.0 to enable YouTube Playback on EVDO by doing this - http://www.rimweb.in...post__p__237026 2. Change to EVRC-B for enhanced and clearer call quality by doing this - http://www.rimweb.in...post__p__237274

1 pointReview: No Nap.. Rs 350 Device Can Save Your Life From A Tragic Accident When You Dose Off.. Source Road accidents kill 13 lakh people every year, while Indians make up two lakh of these fatalities. To put this into perspective, India houses less than 1% of automobiles worldwide, but still accounts for a staggering 15% of total road traffic deaths. A vast majority of these casualties are attributed to driver errors, some of which are caused by fatigued motorists dozing off at the wheel. Fortunately, Chinese ingenuity has spawned a cheap and inexpensive solution dubbed No Nap, which promises to prevent drivers from nodding off. How It Works No Nap is a nifty anti-snooze alarm that sounds an audible tone when the driver falls asleep at the wheel. This potentially lifesaving device clips onto your ear and stays put as long as your head is upright. As soon as you tilt your head forwards, say when nodding off to sleep, a stell ball shifts position and shorts the circuit connected to the inbuilt speaker. This activates an alarm that blasts an effective 100 dB beep, jolting the driver into consciousness. Powered by three button cells, the mechanism is simple yet effective. A cheaper, but considerably more uncomfortable, all-plastic alternative can be purchased from DealExtreme.com for $1.7 (Rs 75 approx), shipping included. However, that will take well over a month to reach your doorstep. Unlike the previous all-plastic version, No Nap's revised design is relatively more ergonomic and secure, thanks to a soft rubber clip that hooks onto your ear. Moreover, the updated version is slim enough to be used in conjunction with spectacles. This cannot be said of the original. Its light weight ensures that wearing one isn't much of an annoyance. Bikers can use this device too, provided the helmet isn't too tight. A simple yet effective design. On The Road The No Nap sounds perfect in theory, but how does it measure up in the real world? I drove around wearing the device to check if it really works. The short answer is: yes, it does work as advertised. When worn correctly, the alarm would go off whenever my head tilted forward around 20 degrees from the normal position. It screamed into my ear during every single one of my simulated naps. While I found that the device can be triggered even if you peer down into the glove compartment, this isn't an issue due to an easily accessible push-button switch that disables the alarm at will. Since its steel ball triggered mechanism is susceptible to gravity and inertia, I expected false alarms due to braking and uneven surfaces. However, this isn't a problem because real world tests revealed that only the negative acceleration brought upon by severe braking may set off the alarm. Even then, it's only momentary. Neither speed breakers nor uneven roads managed to cause the No Nap to register a false alarm. Ditto for hard cornering. Only the largest potholes, when driven rashly into, will evoke a sharp squeak from the device. However, that's hardly an annoyance. Ideally, I should have deprived myself of sleep before evaluating the device. Unfortunately, TechTree employees don't get dental insurance. Conclusion At Rs 350 a pop, what we have here is a cheap solution to a very serious problem. More importantly, one that actually works, much unlike the usual Chinese duds. Most tourist and transport vehicles are driven by overworked, fatigued, and hence dangerously sleepy drivers. In such cases, the No Nap anti-snooze alarm proves indispensible to ensure the security of life and limb. If you regularly travel interstate, drive at late hours, or otherwise indulge in long drives, there is no reason why you shouldn't get one. Forget road safety, the Editor has ordered this for all employees to enforce "No Napping". If the alarm does go off while driving, please take it as a sign to pull over and drink some coffee. Better yet, listen to your body and take a nap before you move on. Like they say: better safe than sorry. Performance: 4/5 Design & Build Quality: 3.5/5 Features: 3.5/5 Value: 4.5/5 Mojo: 4/5

1 pointDrawing the attention of all... Don't make the mistake of buying one of those and regret later...All Chinese Androids...Because... -Almost all have 400 Mhz Processor...Android Won't run smoothly. -Resistive Touchscreens...100% Fun of Android in Touch, Pinch, Zoom & Gestures can't be enjoyed -GPRS and Some with Edge...No 3G -USB Port works as charging only in most -Mediatek Chipset... Same in All Chinese Dual Sims... -Some provide access to different Android Apps Market than Google's Standard App Market -No website of manufacturer...No Support..No Updates...After buying you are on your own.. thanks for ur analysis......i was planning to buy 1 of these..................now plan chganged...............do u think micromax andro is gud enough?? The difference between the Micromax and the Chinese phones in eBay is just the sticker of Micromax... Further Videocon is also having same Micromax's Android phones with Videocon sticker... May be they both are negotiating with same Chinese-CellPhone-CottageIndustry type co...
