World's largest TV

I always thought the Samsung 70” LCD TV was on the top of my wish list.

Until I came across the new Sharp 108” LCD TV. Released in Mumbai on Friday night, it’s the largest TV that has ever been manufactured.

Boasting a height and breadth of 52” and 94” respectively, it employs 8th generation glass substrates. Sharp has proved that it can now manufacture LCD tvs in all sizes- from 14” to gigantic ones.

With a resolution of 1920x1080, it offers a plethora of inputs, such as HDMI, which makes it compatible with a wide range of products.

That’s the good news.

The bad news? It’s gonna burn a deep hole in your pockets, perhaps burn out your wallet. This awesome device comes at a retail price of 97 lakh rupees. And of course, you will need to buy a house with a wall big enough to mount the tv.

So if you are ever on the hot seat of KBC, and AB asks you what you would do with a crore of crore rupees, you know what to say. I know I will.

iPhone vs Stone



While the whole world goes “wo-how” over the new iphone 3G, here’s a picture to support those who speak against it.

I can’t help agreeing with this picture- even my simple Nokia phone provides all these features (except the touch screen), and it doesn’t burn a hole in your pocket.
So as I always say, it’s smarter to buy the ipod touch and use a regular mobile phone.
