Been to the park with my HTC Touch, amazing evening! 

This is really great. So the story begins this way;

I went to Big Bazaar to get some of my favorite rice, Sona Masoori Premium Rice. It is kept loose with a price tag of 31 Rs/- per Kilogram, so I asked the lady to get me a 10 Kg pack. She gives me a slip which I need to pay for at the counter. At the counter, the guy says it will cost me 325!

Well, my math says 31*10 = 310. So when I asked him, he goes that the 15 extra bucks is probably for the packing, Gosh, I was shocked man. I’ve bought a lot of rice in my life and always I’ve seen the price goes a bit down when you buy in bulk and in India now there is a shop which charges you more if you buy it bulk. You won’t believe, I went back to the rice place and asked her to give 10Kgs in loose, so that I pay only 310 Rupees. I had my colleague along with me and we both pondered all over the staff and shouted at most we can, throwing out all the frustration at work!

Then happened the most beautiful thing, I get a bill for 290 Rupees. Apparently I got a discount of 30 bucks. I couldn’t understand their logic and just fled the place.

Guys, watch out for this day-stealing… Either they’re nuts or big time business people, so they think!

I own a HTC touch to satisfy my smart phone needs, the one I own is an HTC Touch bought about an year back from Hong Kong. It is an amazing sleek phone with usual gadgets from Windows Mobile version, however just like any other, it was not complete with some essential software’s which are focused for specific needs. I highly recommend the following if you own any of the Smart Phones based on Windows Mobile.

ToneManager – An application to create different ringtones for different contacts.

RealOne Player – The name explains it.

PointUI – It is another GUI theme enhancement application, You need to experience it to know what it means.

MunduRadio – A Very good internet Radio.

ClearTemp – A very needed temporary files cleaner, which is essential.

SoftReset – Believe it or not, at times the WM gets slower and you need to do a reset. This would allow to do a soft reset of the phone.

dotNet for WM – You know what it means. Needed by different applications.

PocketTV – A Digital TV application for Video.

All of these are freewares and I’ve downloaded it into one zip form. Try it out, they are good!

DISCLAIMER :- I will not be responsible for anything that might happen to your phone by using those software, they’re my likes and hope will be yours too.

As days pass by this one thing disturbs me all the time, I know I’ve never felt this way. I guess part of the reason is that we’re used to this for a long time, take India and all the 4 sides do have burning issues all the time. But this one time, it is seriously disturbing, it is not about a big hotel under attack but it is rather disturbing-feel that it ain’t going to be safer anywhere in this country, anyways!
