If initial Wall Street Journal reports are to be believed, Dell is busy readying a new brand of MP3 players to renew the iPod battle. That’s not all, they could be on sale as early as September, barely a month from now!

This is not the first time Dell has ventured into the music market. Back in 2003, Dell had launched the Dell Digital Jukebox or just Dell DJ with a little help from the folks at Creative. These players were based on the same hardware and software platform as the Creative NOMAD/Creative Zen digital audio players. The dream run lasted three years till August 24, 2006, when Dell decided to pull the plug and production was stopped.

 

Fast forward to 2008, Dell seems to be in a mood to take on the likes of the iPod again. With the likes of Microsoft and Sony having tried and failed to pip Apple from the numero uno perch, it would be interesting to note what strategy Dell has in store. For starters, Dell is working on software for a range of portable PCs that will let users download and organize music and movies from various online sources. This is different from what it had done earlier – where it simply acted as hardware tied to some music service.

The music player which Dell has been testing features a small navigation screen and basic button controls to scroll through music playlists. It would connect to online music services via a Wi-Fi, and Dell would likely price the model at less than $100.

Dell Studio-15

Dell continues to try and update their notebook designs this year, and the new Dell Studio 15 is the latest consumer 15-inch notebook that highlights these new designs.Its a very good lap with almost all the required features needed(except high end gaming).The cost factor is a major factor which makes dell the best choice for consumers,however the XPS series was too much costlier as compared to Inspiron.Inspiron lacks designer part and XPS is coslier and compact, so here dell comes with a mixture of both these a lap within range of Rs46,000 and embedded with almost all features 🙂 .

Sarkar Raj is the much awaited continuation of the highly praised hit film Sarkar by Ram Gopal Varma.Fianlly it saved the image of Ramu in bollywood industry which he had almost lost because of some disasters.

Its a sequel of SARKAR(enthused by film The Godfather)

Star cast:-Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, along with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Sarkar Raj is a powerful political production and is fundamentally a study of power; it discovers the politics of development, and takes a new look at the tradition versus modernity dispute.
Well i think its worth watching this movie because it gave a real image of corrupt politics in india ..
Enjoy the movie

One of my favourite song these days.

Fun Factory – Take your chance.
