Nice review, Vikram. Thanks for the note regarding high SAR value. I did not bother to check that so far. I havent faced any software hangs so far. Have you upgraded to the latest MIUI version? That might take care of the hangs.
Hello abha_29, I would suggest that you get buy the TV locally from India. Even if you end up paying 5-6K more here, it still makes sense to have warranty and service support. Just a personal opinion...
Thanks Vijayanth and aydeeks for the feedback. Indeed Samsung has become a force to be reckoned with in the electronic gadgets/entertainment arena. Even Sony sources their flat display panels from Samsung these days. In terms of features, product range and price, they outperform the competition. Cas read more...
Hi Ajalihal, Thank you for the compliment. No the Civic is not that expensive to own, at least till now. It gives me 9-10 kmpl in city and I get 14.5 on the highway, which is not bad for a car of this size and power. I have a feeling that spares and cost of repair may be on the higher side, thoug read more...
Hi Suresh, I too liked the New City very much. The overall design theme is very racial in approach and has a good flow to it, front-to-back. But I too agree that Honda has priced it a little too steeply, especially in these times of economic despair. In my opinion, it is overpriced by at least 75 read more...
@Suresh: Thank you. I completely agree. City, Civic, Accord and CRV are all class leaders. the best part is that they upgrade the existing models long before they become obsolete and being the latest models to India reasonably quickly after their world-wide launch. I am looking forward to the new read more...
@rohitthebest: Thanks man! I am dying to take possession. Will be updating the review with my first driving impression... @Veekay: The City is also a very good car. They are going to revise it after a few months. You may want to wait till it is out if you finally decide to buy the City. My sugges read more...

Hey Davie.. Congrats on your half-century... go on and crack a ton :-) Man.. you really do write wonderful and relevant reviews... Just keep at it pal... cheers, Pravin
Thanks, Faisal and Raja. Nikon themselves advice their customers to use rechargeable cells. I am sure all other cameras will also be equally power hungry. In fact I believe CP2100 is one of the lower power ones. Regards, Pravin
Way to go, davieboy! Just have two words to say about the piece... deja vu ! (I am happy that I am not the only one who keep having this experience)
