The Internet giant &#8220;<strong>Google</strong>&#8221; is launching their own mobile handset based on their own mobile operating system named &#8220;<strong>Android</strong>&#8221; called <strong>Nexus One</strong>. <span id="more-1780"></span></p>
<p>The launch of Nexus one should be shocking news for other handset makers specially to Apple (iPhone). The device will be manufactured by <strong>HTC</strong> Corp. (High Tech Computer Corporation) and Google will sell the device. The Nexus one is same high class, feature rich device like other devices.</p>
<p>Rather than writing same same content again and again, I am providing few useful links regarding the <strong>Google Nexus one</strong>. Check them out for useful information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.thechetan.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/logo_airtel_gprs-live.gif" alt="Airtel" title="Airtel" align="left" />On 9 June 2009, many Airtel users got SMS from friends about the 43rs recharge scheme. According to the SMS, Just recharge your Airtel with 43 rupee and you will get lifelong validity + Airtel to Airtel calling @ 10Ps/Min. I was shocked when i received this SMS but i ignored it. <span id="more-1548"></span></p>
<p>But later, one of my friend SMSed me that he did the recharge and now all his Airtel to Airtel calls are charged with 10Ps/Min and the validity is also increased to 2012. So i decided to take the chance. Last year, <a href="http://www.thechetan.com/2008/12/airtel-stopped-selling-new-airtel-friends-sims/" target="_blank">Airtel stopped selling Airtel friends cards</a> so it was bit risky to take a chance because no other service provider provides such scheme. </p>
<p>Airtel friends cards provides this scheme</p>
<blockquote><p>
In Happy Hours :<br />
Airtel to Airtel : 10Ps<br />
Airtel to other : 1 Rs</p>
<p>In Normal Hours:<br />
All mobile calls : 1 rs<br />
Landline calls : 2.5 rs</p>
<p>Happy Hours : 10PM &#8211; 8AM &#038; 3PM to 5PM<br />
Group calling 10Ps anytime, Group can have MAX 5 numbers at a time (all 5 must have Airtel friends SIM).
</p></blockquote>
<p>So it was bit risky to loose this plan, but still i decided to do the recharge. and after doing recharge, validity increased to 4th March 2012 and at that time all A2A calls were 10Ps/Min.I also got 39 rupee talktime on that recharge. But on next day every this was usual as friends scheme but validity was 2012 !!  Many friends told me that there friends group was broken after doing this recharge, but now groups are also forming (This system was down from many days, and now its working !).</p>
<p>There was no confirmatory information about this plan from any official Airtel executives and  even now if we call Airtel customer care center (121) they give different different explanation. Even Airtel official gallery stores dont have any information about such plan. </p>
<p>These recharges were working only on Airtel friends cards, no other cards were getting such benefits from this. I suspect there must be some problem in there system on that day. But dont know what was that.</p>
<p>Such exceptional cases always happen with Airtel, from <a href="http://www.thechetan.com/2008/07/enjoy-free-internet-on-airtel-live-no-need-of-gprs/" target="_blank">Free Internet GPRS hacks</a> to Free SMS hacks, all works only on Airtel. !! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.thechetan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/se-k810i-cybershot.jpg" alt="SE K810i" align="left" /> Just few days ago i brought the new Sony Ericsson k810i &#8211; Cybershot mobile handset.As a Cybershot its camera is amazing. It has 3.2 Megapixel camera with Autofocus and XENON Flash. My prevoius handset was Nokia N72, which was 2Megapixel with LED flash and without Autofocus.</p>
<p>Overall the camera is superb, Its Autofocus takes bit time to focus but its very accurate and gives superb and clear clicks.Now i am sharing Few of the most amazing features of my SE K810i.  <span id="more-1310"></span></p>
<h2>PROS</h2>
<p> of Sony Ericsson k810i<br />
1. <strong>Autofocus</strong> &#8211; Good, It was absent in my Nokia N72.<br />
2. <strong>Xenon Flash</strong> &#8211; Bright picks at night.<br />
3. <strong>Bestpick™</strong> &#8211; can take 9 High quality images in just 1 second !!<br />
4. <strong>Dedicated camera keys</strong>, including keys from changing the various settings of camera such as turning ON/OFF the flash, changing the scenes.<br />
5. <strong>Amazing sound</strong> &#8211; Though its not walkman series handset, its sound quality is much better, and louder.<br />
6. <strong>Faster menus</strong> and navigation<br />
7. Specious keyboard &#8211; for Very high speed and accurate SMS typing., <img src='http://www.thechetan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
8. <strong>Radio sound</strong> is amazing and louder (When compared to Nokia devices)<br />
9. Supports <strong>Stereo Bluetooth</strong> audio streaming.<br />
10. i will add <strong>more</strong> here&#8230;..</p>
<h2>CONS</h2>
<p> of Sony Ericsson k810i<br />
Now after many pros few cons about K810i<br />
1. <strong>Battery</strong> seems weaker after taking too many picks using Xenon flash.<br />
2. <strong>Joystick</strong> may cause problem after few years of use.<br />
3. Only <strong>1000 contacts</strong> can be stored <img src='http://www.thechetan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
4. Shooting video quality is VERY VERY Poor compared to other Nokia devices. (XVGA)<br />
5. After sending SMS, when it gives the SMS delivery report or shows the cost of SMS you must press OK to remove that notification from screen, until and unless you remove it, your handset will <strong>NOT</strong> receive any new SMS !!!<br />
6. Dont want to write more here but if got something will surely add&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>with handset i got one <strong>128MB</strong> SanDisk Memory stick which was inside the mobile handset and another Original <strong>2GB SONY Memory stick M2</strong> with handset.Currently i am using SanDisk card for contacts backup.</p>
