How to take a silent photo on the K750!

Well, I found this out by sheer accident. As we(office colleagues) were having evening tea. I started taking photos in my friends camera randomly and noticed a strange thing. There was no sound(click) coming frm the phone at all. I was pretty sure that there was no such option in the phone at all. Even my friend was surprised. After fidgeting over the settings he hit upon the solution. The phone was set in the silent mode and during that there was no sound coming. Wow this was great news, no more loud CLICK noise while taking a photo. And since the silent mode can switched on/off by the shortcut key(#) it is even more simpler.

Happy noiseless shooting.

Remembering September 11,2001

I remember that day very vividly because the next day me and my college friends, Arun(rep), balaji, and lokesh were supposed to leave for tirupathi. as i was preparing in the evening to think of a way to lie to tell why i was taking my bike to my friends place to catch a bus from there. we were plannning on going on the bike all the way.

it was supposed to be a fun trip actually with friends. as we all saw the news breaking on the twin towers we called each other to verify whether we still wanted to go or not. everybody felt we had to go. so on sep 12 we all started early and went to tirupathi.

my dad found out i had gone on my bike all the way, i forgot to remove the odo connection, so when dad how far was my friends place and asked tongue-in-cheek if it was more than 300 kms, i knew i was caught.

i still preserve the stub given to me in the tirupathi with the date saying sep 12 2001 to remind me of the day.

Long time no post

Have not posted for a long time, i for one have lotsa time in office to post daily, but somehow something stopped me from doing so, hope to break the jinx and post regularly.

Bought a new Phone - K750i

Got a new phone, one of my costliest impulse purchases I must say. It all started with one guy in my office getting it last week from Coimbatore. I had one look at it and i was hooked.

Was thinking a long time to buy a new mobile, but somehow justified to myself each time that i dont need one until last thursday. It being my 1st anniversary helped a bit.

Came to know that the Wal-mart of Chennai was the cheapest place to buy the phone, the phone which cost my friend 11,400 in Coimbatore, was priced for 10650 in Saravana Stores. Went, saw, bought.

That my wife has been most annoyed at me giving the phone more attention since its purchase only shows how much i like it.
