work and home

I realized when my family left for home every year, that the place we call home is actually not the place, but the people, and emotions that they churn as we interact.

Else I still live in the same block, same four rooms, but it just doesn't feel like home anymore. The moment my wife and son are back, it is full of life and happiness, where the heart is.

That is why I support " Home is where the Heart is".

my new HTC android phone

wow,

i love android and the "market" (android market).

I had the itch to lay my hands on an Android device for a long time, since I heard about it, and I must say, it was worth the wait till I bought this HTC Magic-phone.

Let me add one thing here, the phone alone doesn't lend to wonderful user experience but it is the compatibility with the Google world in a seamless and hassel free way which makes it a Wow.

I least expected to be provided so much of freedom using my touch screen. I had always envied the Mac's I Phone and thought that was the benchmark to experience. Android has really made me happy.

I did also have a few pokes at the Samsung- touch phones, but found them too slow in response. That I believe can be attributed to the OS and hardware besides the Touch screen itself.

HTC has done a very good job here and Hats off to the Google team for Android and the heaps of available free software on Market.

I have already had to disable the internet browsing using my mobile data services for fear of massive monthly data bills, because one can disable the Data connectivity and use the wiFi connectivity instead in the home broadband as the urge to use the phone to surf the internet is irresistable.
