I never liked the labels atheist or agnostic because they gave too much emphasis to something that should instead be relegated to the same corner of our brains that maintains an interest in historic events. I would not introduce myself to strangers, "Hi, I'm a Titanic buff," unless I was attending a Ship Disaster Convention. Sam Harris got flack for saying we should call ourselves nothing at all. But I'm inclined to agree with him: http://humaniststudies.org/enews/?id=317&article=0 The few atheist events I've attended bored me to tears. Why not discuss philosophy? Nope! People wanted to use up huge chunks of time complaining about Christmas decorations and mistreatment by nuns. Excellent analogy.

When the iPod was invented, the world didnt really need another MP3 player. And the USP of Chrome is multi-processing and how it's built for applications.

Inspite of being an Apple evangelist and consumer, I just happen to be one of the many who feel the iPhone is overpriced, (and it's probably Apple playing the scarcity card), and am willing to wait till the price drops down to a reasonable one, if at all.

But should see other side of coin also. The other markets which are available with the same features or similar features were/are also priced very high. Eg Nokia E 90 @ >Rs.30000/- Nokia N 95 .Rs.25000, HTC Touch diamond @ Rs.27500/-, Samsung Omania @ Rs. 35 K plus, BlackBerry 8820 @32000. So, as a whole if somebody who is targeting for this budget, it does not seem high when you buy a product from Apple. I have very good image of Apple in my mind. Hope to listen from other netizens. Thanks Hitesh Hi all,
