Nokia N85 is a perfect replacement for those tired of good old Nokia N95 and those who were thinking to buy N96 must wait for its launch which is tomorrow and get their hands on this new phone. This phone has best of everything what today’s users demand. Music, games, internet everything is there in it. Gaming capability of this phone is quite good and at par from other phones of this category, not only because of N-Gage gaming service but also due to generous screen size and buttons which are placed sensibly on phone for ease of playing. Dedicated game keys make it really easy to play and use the phone just like any standalone gaming device. The bright 2.6 inch OLED screen gives a crisp view and display quality is awesome. Styling features does not end here; this phone is a dual slide phone which means it can slide both up and down. If you slide it up, the keypad is revealed and when we slide it down, multimedia keys are in front of us. So now we got it that this phone is definitely a decent gaming device too, now coming to camera, Nokia has not disappointed in this front also.

5 megapixel Carl Zeiss optics and bright dual LED flash, sounds good? Yes it is indeed. Carl Zeiss are known to be a reputed brand in camera lenses and offer professional results. The phone takes pretty good still images and can be used as a point and shoot camera replacement if you are going to do photography mostly in day light. We have seen that video recorded from our phone are not smooth and have a jerky playback, its due to less frame rates. Nokia N85 camera offers up to 30 frames per second video recording capability which is great and we can expect smooth video playback free from pixels.

Nokia has taken care of music lovers very well and before I start telling about music capability of this phone, the best part I like is that they have provided standard 3.5 mm audio jack! This means that you can now connect a better quality headphone from any brand if you are not satisfied with the headphones that came in the box. Inbuilt stereo speakers are loud so they can be used to play music when you want others also to listen what you are playing.

Overall, the phone feels nice in hand, build quality I good and looks very sophisticated. I’ll consider it a good buy for anyone looking for feature full phone from a trusted mobile phone company like Nokia.

Reigncom released its 3.5-inch portable navigation device ‘iriver NV mini’ in Korea market, which runs on Gini map software. Adopting a 3.5-inch touch screen with 320×240 resolution, the iriver NV mini supports GPS navigation, video/audio playback, photo viewer and more. On that tiny resolution, watching videos may not be a pleasing experience but its ok to have it because afterall its not the mainstream video playback device. Offering up to 2.5 hours of built-in battery life, it supports external memory capability of 8GB.

Being a gadget freak, I check out as many gadget sites as possible everyday but not every site has got the type of stuff I am looking for. Most of the time, everyone has got almost the same content and even same images. Logitech universal remote is one such hot gadget on which I needed more information but what I can see on every major gadget site is glossy apple products like iphone and ipods shown from different angles, and about hacks and mods in them. For gadget and tech news that matter, I always depend on gadgetadvisor.com which is a Gadget Advisor site, for example I get to know about top extensions for Firefox, other software and hardware news and these are only selected news from the industry which really have importance in our life. Important things like online backup service, computer resources etc. everything is there. So if you need relevant information and do not want to spend hours browsing thru internet junk then gadgetadvisor.com is definitely for you.

Website uptime depends on your host. While most of the web host these days claim to have 99.9% uptime, but it’s really unfortunate to know that it’s not always true. It’s like whenever a web host setup his own website, the web designer gifts him a 99.9% uptime icon without even knowing whether the host will be really that good or not. Thumbs rule is to choose a host which is well known in industry and have been in business since long. Few names which come in mind are: HostGator, 1and1, godaddy, bluehost etc. Going with one of these means a good service and rare downtimes. Good uptime will make sure that your site is available for your visitors whenever they visit your site which is very important. If site shows unavailable then it gives a bad impression and one can notice a drop in hits and page views. I recommend WebCEO for monitoring your website uptime. They are really good in providing timely reports right into your inbox (no spam whatsoever, only reports) which is really useful as you can show it as a proof to your host if he is providing a bad uptime.

Hyundai Motor Company revealed its eco-friendly hybrid hatchback car ‘Santa Fe Blue Hybrid’ during Paris Motor Show, which is powered by a 2.4L Theta four-cylinder engine with 30kW electric motor. Featuring ISG (Idle Stop & Go) control system, the Santa Fe Blue Hybrid can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in 10.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 170km/h. Acceleration is really slow and people driving car faster will feel it, while others cannot make out the difference. Hybrid cars are also priced much higher than their non hybrid version.

When it comes to prescription glasses, one name that always comes in everyone’s mind is Zenni. If you don’t know about Zenni Optical then let me tell you that they are well known for selling low cost prescription glasses and those glasses don’t look cheap at all. At the starting price of just $8, they are offering a good quality product which has satisfied everyone who purchased. You can look at the positive feedbacks of so many people here who had bought Zenni products. My personal opinion is that eyeglasses are still the best option for people with weak eyesight as they are completely safe and offer additional protection to eyes like from UV rays and dust etc. There are potochromic lenses available from Zenni which change color when you move out in sun and become darker to save your eyes from sun glare and UV rays while when you are in room, they become just like clear glass for ease of reading and better visibility in low light condition. So this way you don’t need to carry a sunglass with you always. Some people will ask why they are selling such good product at low price, reason is that they manufacture these glasses and frames themselves and do not include any middlemen for selling their product plus they don’t spend a lot on advertisement.
