RGsm increasing its tariffs :rofl_200: :rofl_200: Actually the network of RGsm is punishing its users, so RGsm should give Rs100 TT FREE every month to compensate the call drops, LACK_OF_voice_clarity, etc... But now, RGsm tariff is hiked around to the level of of Cartel :rofl_200: Those Ex-AirHELL guys in RCom camp should be thanked, since they forced the RGsm users to escape from the evil_RGsm network now... :rofl_200:

If your relative has an Android Smartphone, there is no need to even buy a separate device for Skype. Simply install Skype from the Market and start using it. Skype for Android Info >> http://www.skype.com...pe-for-android/ It even works on many Nokia Phones. See Skype for Symbian Phones for more info >> http://www.skype.com...pe-for-symbian/ Else, As your relative is staying in Singapore, ask him/her to go to Sim Lim Square Computer Market. They will get lots of such devices at good rates. Still go through this link also for Skype Phones with Wifi which can be used without a PC >> http://shop.ebay.com...-All-Categories That's just a standard line online sites have for products which they don't have in stock sometimes. Does not mean that it's obsolete/discontinued. Toshiba is still selling that Laptop. Just some days back, it was advertised also in newspapers. Obsolete is a very relative term. For sellers everything is obsolete after 3 months but for For your parent's skype, simple browsing needs, you can even use a 5 year old laptop TODAY also and it should suffice. In fact, you were given complete technical input in the topic. You did not act on it, otherwise you could have got Toshiba Satellite C Series Laptop C600-P4011 at Rs 15,800. I sometimes wonder, people take marriage decisions after just 1-2 half hour meeting where they have to spend a lifetime with the person and so much confusion for simple things.. Now You can buy C Series C660-P5012 from Letsbuy at net cost of Rs 19,300 (after icicilb) >> http://www.letsbuy.c...r52f2jhepu1nfk6 and get 8 GB USB pen drive OR Buy Toshiba Satellite C Series Laptop C600-P4011 at Rs 18,799 (after icicilb) >> http://www.letsbuy.c...r52f2jhepu1nfk6 And get Western Digital My Passport Portable USB 3.0, 500 GB HDD and Carry Case Free with it. Any one of that is sufficient for your needs. I would suggest C600-P4011 because of the 500GB FREE HDD.

@ DL Not came to bangalore after posting here, but coming 2 weeks I will be there @ Tanveer You are lucky !! will be in delhi on 17th. Thanks

without knowing more details of your particular asset allocation, you should start a SIP of about 1% of your investment amount monthly into a few funds that you like if you don't have a strong opinion, then just go for a mix of index funds and gold funds after a 100 months you won't be unhappy! that's over 8 years so equities would have out performed all other asset classes by then if there is a weekly option and you really want to risk it, you could do 1%/week and see how you stand in 23 months but i would not recommend it since equities need at least 3-4 years to outperform and we still might not have recovered fully by next FY 2012-13 its actually very hard to give meaningful advice without a complete picture of your net worth BTW, your comment directly contradicts since that implies ZERO ability to take risk and your only choice is bank FDs!

^^ SSR you didn't miss U jusT found it out

Sync LinkedIn, Facebook, Outlook, CRM and iPhone Connections to Google Contacts (including the Profile Photo) All your contacts (e.g. from LinkedIn, Outlook etc.) should be automatically synchronized and stored in one place in the cloud (Google Contacts) that enables easy access from any computer or mobile device. Google Contacts (http://www.google.com/contacts) is a very important part of Google Apps suite since its connected to Gmail. Follow these simple steps to have all your contact synchronized between your LinkedIn, Facebook, iPhone, Outlook and Gmail / Google Contacts: Step 1 – Outlook to Google synchronization This step is optional. Outlook can be synchronized using Google Sync tool available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gappssync. Step 2 – iPhone to Google synchronization This step is most essential in the process. Use these instructions exactly to setup the interaction between iPhone and Google http://bit.ly/bklwL8. Step 3 – Facebook to iPhone synchronization This step will add missing contacts from Facebook and update the profile photo of existing contacts (only of your Facebook friends). Download the Facebook application from the AppStore on your iPhone and follow these instructions http://bit.ly/bS2dPo. Step 4 – LinkedIn to iPhone synchronization This step will add missing contacts from LinkedIn together with their profile photo (if they have one in LinkedIn). This step is very important since most of the business contacts are on LinkedIn. Download the LinkedIn application from the AppStore on your iPhone and then download all contacts to your iPhone address book. See http://bit.ly/d4sZXM for more info. I recommend completely rebooting your iPhone before synchronizing the LinkedIn contact since the application uses a lot of memory and can crash if you have to many contacts to synchronize the first time. Step 5 – Congratulations! All contact are now synchronized to Google Contacts. Visit Google Contacts (http://www.google.com/contacts) and see that all your contacts, including profile photos (for most of them are included). Use the Google Contact "Find Duplicates" button to merge any duplicates. Keep using the LinkedIn and Facebook app on your iPhone in order to sync them to Google. If you update any contact on Google, they will automatically get updated on your iPhone as well. Want more synchronization? Enable Contact sharing If you are using Google Apps it easy to share contacts between all users in your domain and to achieve a global addressbook. Follow these instructions to enable contact sharing: http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47926 You can also add Google Apps contacts from your Dashboard. All contacts will then be available on URL: https://www.google.com/contacts/a/_YOUR_DOMAIN_ Note! These steps are tested and worked 1st April 2010. Google offers Contact API (http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/) that will enable you to integrate and use all your contacts in other systems e.g. a CRM tool. Another option is to export the contact from Google and use them with Excel or other application that supports importing of Comma Separated Value files (CSV). Enjoy!

^ ^ ^ You can buy LG Vortex which is CDMA equivalent of LG Optimus ONE and available on the forum for Rs 7,999. It's cheaper & better than galaxy pop.

Digitalnirvana, There are many wise ppl here. They are right and saying the same things which are the ideal way to deal with investment. Let me be direct to your question. You have ICICI, RelInd, ONGC, GMR Infra, Unitech, DLF, MSat, HUL. My opinion - Take first exit from all infra and real estate companies - GMR, Unitech, DLF. This is because in the downturn they will be the hardest hit. Currently they are in too much of debt burden and there are no signs of reversals. One can take only contra view on this. If one wants to be in, they have to wait for 5 yrs from now. Keep ICICI, RelInd, ONGC. And you may add more at dip. Reasons: ICICI will be the biggest beneficiary when when market start looking good. Banks are the beneficiaries if economy has to to turn around. Also, in the private sector this is the biggest player and 2nd best safe player after HDFC. Also, the interest rates will peak in 2 to 3 months and then it will stable for sometime before coming down. At that time this bank will get the max. advantage. RelInd - No matter what ppl says, Reliance has always given good returns to its share holders in long run and is one of the biggest wealth creators in Indian history. The current negatives are - 1. Low gas output (many believe this is deliberate) 2. Low gas pricing (will be reversed - this is matter of time). The "settings" are underway and you will the reversal in the trend. The simple rule of Sensex - If sensex has to go up significantly, Reliance must have to go up. ONGC - Consider this as a debt fund. This gives you good dividend. Will fall less with market. Incase of more deregulation on oil, subsidy burden will be less. If one assume that there is no govt. control on this company, the correct price is1800. You need to be patient with this company and it will create wealth for you. Again, a sensex heavy company. HUL - All the FMCG companies do better during recession. Incase the monsoon will go normal, this will give good return in short term too. So keep it. The exit time will come when the economy starts recovering. MSat - Cant say anything with confidence right now. Too many complexities involved here. 1. Its merger with Mahindra. 2. How the US market will pan out in coming future. 3. They have many cases going on. 4. Currency (especially Re.) is one of the important factor. Strength of Re will deteriorate its profit. Market never likes confusion so the advise would be to stay with market and get out of confusion. Also, when you dont understand equities, the best way to invest in eqities is through MF. As somebody suggested here, HDFC Equity, HDFC Top 200 are some of the best funds. You may invest in it through SIP. You may exit in some of the above stocks and enter into these MFs. Alternatively, IMHO, Gold will touch $1800 in very short time. One must be invested here. Dipper the recession, higher the Gold. The best way according to me is Gold ETF. Do the investment only as per you need and plan. Happy investing.

@ digitalnirvana can u provide u r share name detail with quantity ?

Sell all ur shares.. invest in sadhana Forest.. Google it.. See movie Zeitgeist Moving Forward.. and forget about all investments and returns.. monetary system and capitalism is to collapse.. and no one know what happen.. because its never ever happened before.. this is just a suggestion and IMO.. also see what is trillion dollars..

Give some info on the taxes levied on profits from Mutual Funds / Shares.

This is going to be a long post, read at your risk. There are certain rules one need to follow while investing: 1) What is the purpose of investment? 2) After what period will the money be required? 3) Is current income stable? 4) Are there any short term liabilities? After answering the above questions one need to start the investment plan. As different people will have different needs we cannot say which is the best investment option. 1) Stock Market : People who invest in stock market directly need to be aware of all activities around the market, sectors and the stock. This is becoming quit difficult as no of factors are increasing all the time. Even if you invest make sure you invest in good companies which good business. NEVER BUY STOCK CAUSE SOMEONE ELSE BOUGHT IT 2) Mutual Fund: This is the best alternative for people who want to get stock market benefit with there returns. A mutual fund is run by a fund manager who manages the fund and normally have good market knowledge. So before investing invest in funds with Good track records. SIP for a period of 3-4 years is said to be a very good investment. Also there will be no tax after one year investment. 3) FD's : This the safest investment. But it bank FD's gave -ve return in 2010 and returns have turned just +ve in 2011 as interest rates have increased in past few months. Also one need to pay tax on the interest income earned. Other alternative with a bit of risk is to invest in FD's issues buy different company's to rise the funds. Normally the fixed returns are better then bank FD's. One need to be very sure that the company which is issuing FD is a stable company and with stable growth. 4) Bullion : The asset class which has provided the maximum return on investment in last few years. There is lot of debate around the word if the same will be sustainable going forward also. There is no clear view on this till now. There is lot of speculative positions that have build in commodities around the world which many experts are calling it a bubble. Like Silver jumped to 75K and returned to 50K in 1 one week which is huge for a large traded commodity worldwide. People may argue that this can also happen in stock market but we need to understand the commodity prices are similar around the world while in stock market PE ratios are very much different. @DL send me the investment details and let me check if we can make some more loss/profit . *** Markets will be volatile till mid of August, be causes of investing and trading till then (If any of the European countries defaults then be ready for a shock).

US will be Norelco. The nomenclature may also change. You can see the multirow cutters immediately. As for stories about beard getting messed up, they can be termed (not appropriately) old wives tales. I have been on electrics for almost 37 years, so if beard was to go knotty it would have one. I use electric every day (or even twice when I have to go out in the evening). There was one occasion about 20 years ago when I left my Electric at home as the place I was going to had very frequent power cuts (my shaver was mains only) so thought I will use a blade for 10 days. After the first three days it was hell. The skin becomes softer when you are not scraping it every day. For those contemplating a switch go 100%. The first 3 weeks will be hell, and then bliss. You and the beard take some time to get used to the new protocol. The biggest problem - learning to shave before washing your face!

I have hero with me, will bring it over, coming to bangalore next week, only on one condition, u brake it u buy it. Other wise one good coffee !! (sorry I hate beer ) thanks
