i get ur point mate, but P series owners will have less to crib. The contacts problem u sed is relevant, but who cares that much deep. As for the shortcuts, SE has provided a nice shortcut menu on the main screen, so customise how much u want.
Yep, i miss EDGE n HSDPA on this fone though!

Phew! shave done & when you keep it back on its dock, one would say just what Christian Bale had to say from Batman Begins,” does it come in black”......”eh, no sir” would be the humble reply. (grinning) that’s one more thing I want Gillette to come up with. Who knows they might come up with a razor... with ten blades or maybe automated razors?? Maybe they will, as we always await surprises right?!
Finally, as I and Gillette would put it together,’ feel it to believe it’, yea..m3power ie..
N thank ya all for taking sometime out & reading my comeback reviewJ I hope m able to contribute more regularly now. N sorry for this long rev! I ll get back to precise writing next up?
Lotsa cheers,
Mehul.

One annoying thing can be the power switch, as turning the thing on n off intermittently can be a bit cumbersome & even more for people who shave in a jiffy. No problem again… turn that thing off & shave as a regular Mach 3! It still shaves well!! It’s a two in one!! Voila!!! This is the best part o...f it & then one will be like, ah I love the pulsing thing. This is where I guess Gillette have scored brownie points. Smart stuff.
Shaves done, zzzooooing stop. So whats the feeling now?? Its like a mini massaging shave unit rather. It reminds me of the head massage my barber gives with some small buzzing gizmo. Its definitely relaxing & leaves the face, umm.. yeah a bit more relaxed than one would be after a Mach 3 shave.. M3power users will agree with me. But also, its something out of the box & thoroughly innovative. Long term Mach 3 users like me, will find it a little bit tough to get along, but once done, there aren’t any problems. Instead one will surely be hooked onto it I bet!
Its also seemingly practical, so as to when you maybe having an urgent meeting to attend & gawd! have so li’l time 2 shave, this thing comes in handy indeed. It is top notch & ups the shaving ante significantly.(I wonder what it must be with the fusion series that sports 5 blades! One swoosh n job done!!)
M3power sells at 370 bucks per piece including 1 AAA battery. The cartridges are I guess ten bucks costlier than the regular Mach3 cartridges. 245 for 4, yea worth it. Battery life depends on usage entirely.

Now back to the real thing, the micro pulses as Gillette calls it, stimulates the hair up & away from the skin, thus giving a clear shave in few strokes. Its just like a Philishave, but minus the rotors. The blades pulsate & our hands give the directions, much like the circular motion of the rotors.... Simple! So what I got was yep, a smooth shave(trademark Mach 3 legacy) n with much lesser irritation…n yep(again) fewer strokes as promised. Wow! Dats nice. Am yet to try other blade alternatives, eg Supermax for instance, but is is that good?? Someone please tell me about it. Wanna know how things apart from Gillette work.
But whats to be experienced will vary from person to person. I have a bit thickish stubble, which doesn’t go off easily in a single shave & that’s why, I have to shave twice at a time to achieve complete smoothness. Bingo with the M3. But it was a totally different thing altogether moving the buzzing body around a face. Felt like a shave massage!! Lol. The new blades are also much much better than the Mach 3, as they are a little more sharper & yet softer. Knicks I think will be history now. At first instance the feeling is like gently move around the M3 & it will shave well coz one feels like having a philishave in hand. Not quite. With the micro pulses coming in, the unit feels a bit more heavier, so the feeling of just gliding it comes in. No problem, it still does the job remarkably. My say.. try a few times, get a hang of it & apply the same pressure uniformly as you do to a Mach 3 & then see the results. There will be a significant difference.

D50 n now D40 r truly redefining the DSLR entry level. i hv used this cam n agre with wat u hv sed..finish n built is premium no doubt.
Since the d200 n upper class cameras r coming wid magnesium alloy bodies, i wud simply want nikon to upgrade the rest of d cams(d40,50 n 80 as D70s will b phased... out soon!) to magnesium alloy bodies to make em feel more rugged!
y dont u setle for a 70-300VR or a 80-200 f2.8 lens insted of the 55 200..Both the lenses i hv mentioned r awsm n u wont hv to replace em for another decade, trust me! the 80 200 is an excellent fast telefoto lens ideal for portraits n general fotografy n the 70 300VR will b the most ideal telefoto zoom lens.Read More

even i hv this camera for the past 2 years now n hv enjoyed every moment of it! But its got a very slow writing speed which can b annoyign at times n focussing is damn slow @ night or in low light! but for all those fotografy buffs, its a solid camera n 8 mps wid 10x zoom is worth the fun! dis thing...s got excellent macro capability too!Read More

Dude..as u mentioned, this is d first bike to get fuel injection technology in india, Ur wrong mate...its Hero honda whos won the race with the Glamour Fi coming in n soon it will be the Zma Fi coming this january...moreover Bajaj is facing issues with the fuel injection thing, n dats y is putting t...he less rumored P200 as everyone must be knowing it by now, for sale! But even thats not gonna be a FI, so honda will rule neway!:D
The Fi on the glamour is really good, n after having ridden d bike, there was no comparison to the smoothness achieved. I hope bajaj will live upto this!
N lastly on this P220..Bajajs just keen on competing on the 220cc stage(zma factor) n dats y has been safe with this nw pulsie. the designs nothin sort of special n on first glances just felt they tried to ape the zma. look at d fairing angles, n u get to c,d fairings r more or less similar type. n this is a premium bike, so dont expect sales to jump off so soon..Zma FI will definitely be better, as HH need not do any radical changes, the bikes just fine..xtra bhp will b a welcome..
I dont c a masterstroke from bajaj here,yea a few new goodies r welcome definitely in this already power hungry market, instd they r just finding new ways to get on with wat HH is doing!Read More

No wonder its run superbly without a hassle on my long runs around gujrat n mumbai..

For te first time, m reading a rev on cd-dawn. i hv only met ppl who use it, n never asked hw te bike is. well yes, nethin frm the HH stable is worth havin a go at.
I own a zma, n recently on 2 really long rides i got a stunning average of arnd 55 on the highway!! i think thts quite very terrific... of a bike of such a high capacity.
neways...gr8 rev. try using castrol power 1 for ur dawn. its damn gr8. te vibrations n noise will definitely get low. its of te same HH grade. so dont wry abt it. castrols te best.

niec rev eh! harshal. i know te day i went for the first day first show at eros!! it was an unbelievable sellout week for batman!!
I hv been following warner bros' lookout for new directors after Batman-robin bombed. So, it all began in 2004 when they finally roped in Nolan instd of Schumacher ag...ain who had alrdy scripted another bat movie: Batman Triumphant. But, it never released. Nxt came up Batman vs Superman which too was scrapped!!...I remember goin out to cyber cafes just to read every line on the dvlpmnt stages of te new movie.
The reason y the movie was a success is coz Nolan took out a leaf too many from the acclaimed book, batman: year one.(u must hv read it)
The new mobile(tumbler), te new suit, gadgetry, ra's al ghul, r all frm year one.
N also, scores of fans wnted to c hw batman begun it all n dats y te immense drag in te first half which is compensated by te gripping 2nd.Also, Bale had to undergo rigorous voice training to modify his voice when as batman.He had to develop the rough n harsh side of bruce wayne. Heard those lines: its not who i am, but its what i do, is what defines me, when hes after saving gotham.
so much a fan i m, that i got te soundtrack of the movie, te batmobile collectible n alrdy preordered te dvd!!!
keep goin mann,
