I bought the router from flipkart and it took 3 weeks to get it. I had posted this a review but flipkart removed it.

I will try and post what I had written in the review. They had a reason to remove the review as it was projecting flipkart in a slightly negative light even though I had no intentions to do that.

Had ordered the router on the 6th of September. As luck would have it, it went out of stock the very next day. Can't blame flipkart for it but when I ordered it it was in stock. It took 2 weeks to get it delivered. I received it on 21st. I tried to set it up the whole evening but unfortunately the USB on that device was defective. I finally figured that out once I had plugged in every USB storage device that I had. Called up flipkart and it was returned back in 1 working day. Unfortunately for me the device was still out of stock so flipkart gave me store credit. 

When it was finally in stock I was still not sure if buying this router would be a right decision or if none of my devices were compatible with this device.I eventually took a risk and ordered the same device again. Got the delivery in 2 days and was up and running in less than 5 minutes. 

As far as the device is concerned it is really worth the price. Have not been able to use any other USB functions as I am using a USB modem. Will try and buy a usb hub and see if it works with it.

The best mobile development platform for hobbyist programmer

This is something I have been thinking for a while so here it goes. This is a list of platforms I know of and my choice of what makes sense for a hobbyist programmer like me. Let me first list down all the possible platforms and then list down the pros and cons that I feel are associated with each platform. Java ME (The platform formally known as J2ME) Windows Mobile Linux Palm Brew Symbian Blackberry iPhone iPhone Let me start with iPhone the darling of the media and blogger's till about a fortnight. I had real expectations from iPhone as a platform but the way its been going so far I would never bother developing for it. Officially there is no SDK with which one can build applications. What ever tools the community had built have been rendered useless with the iPhone 1.1.1 software upgrade . The community might be able to hack a version for 1.1.1 but without any support from almighty apple its just a cat and mouse game. With every minor release the applications

Airtel 16Mbps for Impatient Ones

This advert can be the summed as the best in terms of making fun of the impatient ones. The new Airtel broadband is 16 Mbps but with a slight hitch. At Rs. 2999/- with a Data Transfer Limit of just 20 GB. Just listening to a few hours of music videos on Youtube should be enough to exhaust the limit in no time. Thinking of downloading torrents is something one should not even think about. Not sure who Airtel is targeting with this plan. If you bought this plan do leave a comment.
