I was lucky enough to have gotten a chance to review the new Apple MacBook Pro for Smoking Apples.

Here’s the link to the review and below is a slideshow of the pictures I took.

(Nokia's BH-903 Stereo Bluetooth Headset)

Remember the mystery package that I received the other day? Well, one of the contents of the package was the Nokia BH-903 Bluetooth Stereo Headset, sent to me all the way from the UK by WOMWorld. I’ve been using it for the past few days and the little power packed device has left me impressed. 

Packaging:

I might be a little nit-picky here, but Nokia wastes a lot of resources on the packaging their products. By that, I don’t mean they make it look expensive. Rather, they waste a lot of precious space around the product. Ever since I’ve moved onto Apple products, I’ve understood how much the packaging of the product matters and Nokia needs to get its act together on their products. For a device as small as above, there was no need to pack it in a bog that’s almost as big as a box for the E71. And yes, that’s the other device that was in the mystery package from DHL.

Build and Design:

 

I strongly believe that Nokia’s designers have put it a lot of thought into this device. The heart of the Nokia BH-903 is the main unit, which has been made to appear as a medallion, as the earphones hand around your neck when you wear it, making the main unit hang just below your face. The unit is small enough to hold in your hands.

Since my Mac Mini is my primary computer, I have been using an iBall keyboard and mouse combination with it, something that I purchased almost 2 years back with my PC. The keyboard has been playing well so far, the mouse however conked off a couple of weeks back. Since then, I’ve been stuck with a lame mouse which has a non-functional scroll wheel and is a mini mouse, so small that two of my fingers are enough to cover it completely. It was too plasticky and made weird clicky noises.

I’ve been trying to find a good mouse for the last couple of weeks and had zeroed in on the Logitech MX Revolution mouse. However, at a price of Rs. 5000, it didn’t seem worthwhile.

However, it was not until @shadez told me about the Logitech MX518 that I realized that I could get something as awesome as the MX Revolution at less than 25% of the cost.
