<u>Black Friday Deals</u><br />
<u><br /></u>
Back in the year 2000 there is very less sales or deals for Black Friday(the day after thanksgiving).We do remember that when we entered a Target to get some body wash the greeter in the front door greeted us with toys and Polaroid cameras.There is no rush or anything like that.<br />
<br />
But after a while retailers started to exploit the fun.Now-a-days everyone waits for the day after thanksgiving to grab something they are waiting for long time.<br />
<br />
A word of caution for people on the deals.<br />
<br />
<iframe bordercolor="#000000" frameborder="0" height="320" hspace="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/adi/N7433.148119.BLOGGEREN/B6533655.2137;sz=320x320;ord=[timestamp]?;lid=41000613802463918;pid=59298;usg=AFHzDLufYSrCpqqRWZx36bcOqnriZMi_Xg;adurl=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.abt.com%252Fproduct%252F59298%252FSamsung-UN46EH6000.html;pubid=595008;imgsrc=http%3A%2F%2Fcontent.abt.com%2Fmedia%2Fimages%2Fproducts%2FBDP_Images%2Fbig_UN40EH6000-1.jpg;width=320;height=207" vspace="0" width="320"></iframe><br />
Electronics manufacturers manufacture products just for black friday.Meaning you may not be getting a real deal.For ex:look for the model of the flat screen tv that you are going to buy.It exactly might not match the one you are looking for.The manufacturers will downgrade the existing model and make a slight change to the model number and give you the TV thats worth for that sale price.<br />
<br />
<br />
We will try and update the deals as and when we come across.<br />
<br />
Amazon this year has already started its count down.<br />
<br />
Here is the link where you can get to the amazon deal page directly.<br />

Gizmodo's Twitter account was recently hacked, after a former employee's
iCloud account was breached, and all his Apple devices (iPhone, iPad,
MacBook Air) were remotely wiped. It turns out the hacker didn't even
have to get the password: he just tricked Apple's tech support.<br />

Samsung, LG, and carriers fined for price fixing by Korean FTC</h1>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span>Summary:</span> The $40.2 million fine was divided among Samsung, LG and Pantech, as well as Korean carriers SK Telecom, KT Corp and LG Uplus.</span></h1>
South Korea's Fair Trade Commission (FTC) has fined Samsung, LG and Korea's carriers $40.2 million for price rigging and <a href="http://thenextweb.com/asia/2012/03/15/koreas-ftc-slaps-a-40-million-fine-on-samsung-lg-and-operators-over-mobile-price-fixing/">consumer fraud</a>.
<br />
The FTC found the companies guilty of working together to fix prices
and defraud consumers. The companies had apparently inflated the prices
of phones and then advertised them as improved special offers.<br />

We just put in a descriptive title so that people are aware of what it is immediately.<br />
<br />
Samsung introduced its Galaxy S3 model with Android Icecream Sandwich. And we here at Claqueurs have enough details to believe that it would be a very long time (read loooooooooooooong time,yes really that long) before you can taste jelly bean.By that time a new android OS would have arrived and you still would be stuck with a version of software that is 2 generations behind.<br />
<br />
Let us see for example:Samsung galaxy S2 was introduced in US last year(September 2011) with gingerbread.Android icecream sandwich was introduced in October 2011. And in february Sprint is the first carrier that promised icecream sandwich in S2 devices. Its june now and there is no ICS yet.But they are introducing S3 with ICS.<br />
<br />
To increase the sales of the S3 they have stopped the upgrade.T-Mobile is the only carrier that has given the ICS update to S2.<br />
<br />
So if you buy S3 its a big question when you will receive the jelly bean update.<br />
<br />
So to avoid frustration stick with apple who at least are as nice to upgrade the old phones with new versions as they become available.<br />
<br />
We at claqueurs are a support group for open source,but this samsung thing makes us irritable and made us switch to apple (iphone).<br />
<br />
We still have high praise for android and not for samsung any more.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7322363.post-25792973038585494022012-06-18T15:04:00.000-04:002012-06-18T15:04:19.124-04:00Interviews<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
So.. the claqueurs team worked in a company that went bankrupt last January.The whole team was looking for jobs and everyone of the settled in a new job(brilliant team).<br />
<br />
There were lot of funny interviews.Funny people that we met on the process.<br />
<br />
The team actually took notes while meeting these people to bring you their experience.In the coming weeks you will be seeing them all one by one.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7322363.post-11316442564181919852012-05-11T11:50:00.001-04:002012-05-11T11:50:51.317-04:00Samsung did it again !!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
If you are planning to buy Samsung galaxy S2 from any of the US carriers (Sprint,ATT,T-Mobile,Verizon) Hold it.<br />
They are all running the ginger bread version of Android. And Samsung announced that it will update it to ICS(Ice cream sandwich) in February. Its mid-May and there is no update in the horizon.<br />
<br />
They have updated all the foreign carriers who carry the S2.<br />
<br />
In the mean time samsung has released its galaxy S3 with ICS. So there probably won't be an ICS update for the galaxy s2 owners in the US.<br />
<br />
Again I repeat if you are in the market for a new android phone and looking at Galaxy S2 <b>Hold it.</b><br />
<br />
Either go with the ones that has the ICS or wait till you get the galaxy s3.By the time US gets the S3 google will come with a different version of android and you will be stuck with the obsolete version of android.<br />
<br />
Better go with iphone.(I really didn't want to say this but I said it).<br />
<br />
Here are few pictures of the galaxy s3.<br />

<span id="NewsBody"><b>On Bill Gates: </b></span><br />
<br />
<span id="NewsBody"> </span>Jobs saying of Gates: "Bill is basically unimaginative and has never invented anything, which is why I think he's more comfortable now in philanthropy than technology. He just shamelessly ripped off other people's ideas."<br />
<br />
This comes from a man who didn't spare a penny for philanthropy.<br />
<br />
This is how great people reply:<br />
<br />
"I don't think that's something we need, some wealth to find root for that one out of a million type person. For most people being able to do mathematics, being able to read, these are great things, and our capacity for doing that needs to expand," Gates said.<br />
<br />
Gates added of Jobs: "Over the course of the 30 years we worked together, you know, he said a lot of very nice things about me and he said a lot of tough things." Jobs was, indeed, mercurial.He explained: "He faced, several times at Apple, the fact that their products were so premium priced that they literally might not stay in the marketplace. So the fact that we were succeeding with high volume products, you know, including a range of prices, because of the way we worked with multiple companies, it's tough."<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>I hope you will reflect on what you've done with your talent and energy. I hope you will judge yourselves not on your professional accomplishments alone, but also on how well you work to address the world's deepest inequities, on how well you treat people a world away who have nothing in common with you but their humanity.</i></span> <br />
<br />
These are the words of a real human - Bill Gates.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"> While the rest of the world mourns for Steve Jobs there is a small group that mourns for Dennis Ritchie.He is the father of the computer language C. Though he may not be a big name like Steve Jobs his achievement is not a bit less than that of anyone.In fact most of the famous people have been on the shoulders of Dennis.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"> Most of the computer applications were written in C at one point of time.Computer science students know about Dennis Ritchie through his book "The C Programming Language". Every computer student must have written some kind of C programming in their early days.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"> And by learning C many had earned a good fortune.For many the language C provided and is providing their daily bread and butter.</span><br />
<br />
His quotes are:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><sup> "I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the demigodic party."</sup></li>
<li><sup> "UNIX is very simple, it just needs a genius to understand its simplicity."</sup></li>
<li><sup> "C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success."</sup></li>
<li><sup> C has "the power of assembly language and the convenience of... assembly language."</sup></li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
Good Bye Ritchie.<br />
<br />
RIP.<br />

So I was browsing sprint website and looking for a phone to buy.Since I was so disappointed with my present Samsung Transform I have decided to read the reviews before I make my purchase decision.<br />
<br />
I clicked the user reviews and see that the positive reviews are at the top.I want to see the reviews with 1 star or the negative reviews.I was searching for that sort option but all I found was <b>Featured ,Newest, Highest Rated, Most Helpful.</b><br />
<br />
<b> </b>There is no way you can sort the reviews with one star or negative or the most critical ones.<br />
<br />
All you can see is the praising ones unless the newest ones happen to be negative.If not you will be spending a lot of time searching for a negative review.<b></b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
<b> Its like telling people you can rate us with the following 3 options.</b><br />
<ol style="text-align: left;"><li><b> Good</b></li>
<li><b>Better.</b></li>
<li><b>Best</b></li>
</ol><b>Here is the screen shot:</b><br />

Again!!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> So again this year apple has lost its iphone 5 prototype in a bar.Surprising????<br />
<br />
How could such a thing as losing in a bar can take place successively?<br />
<br />
There is a subliminal marketing involved in the loosing of the phone.<br />
<br />
Last year when the expectation of iphone 4 was less or people didn't think much of iphone as they were already satisfied with the iphones they had.<br />
<br />
At that time sprint came up with the fast 4G with HTC EVO.4G had 7 mbps speed.And the phone itself was cutting edge.It had 4 inch screen.Its the first wimax phone.The phone itself can act as a router (tethering) and can connect up to 5 devices.<br />
<br />
So everyone started to talk about the happening thing.And were expecting the EVO.Apple didn't even had the plans to release its phone.Seeing peoples expectation about the EVO apple started to worry.It thought the the demand for the iphone 4 would decrease if most of the people who were planning to switch switched over to the EVO.<br />
<br />
It needed some news of the iphone to come out.So what would it be?It can't be anything related to the feature of the phone.<br />
<br />
So the news of the lost iphone came out.People started to talk.Now iphone is on their attention again.<br />
<br />
History repeats again this year.<br />
<br />
Another apple employee looses his upcoming iphone 5 in a bar and then again securities and the police officers search for it again.Here you go they have your attention again. Just increasing the tempo of their release.Had it not be lost we wouldn't care and there would be no news.<br />
<br />
Now there is news all over.<br />

<br />
1.Landau Eugene Murphy Jr<br />
2.Team iLuminate<br />
3.Poplyfe<br />
4.Silhouettes.<br />
<br />
Landau was wonderful last night as was Team iLuminate.Right from the begning I am not a great fan of Poplyfe.And she missed few notes in her song.<br />
<br />
I need to say something about Silhouettes.All the judges were telling that this is a unique act.As far as I recollect it is not.Remember the Oscars where Ellen hosted.They had the real professional dance troupe doing the same act much better.And I am not sure why the judges were saying that they have never seen it before.<br />
<br />
So my pick here is Landau Eugene Murphy Jr.He is a singer and he does it good.Based on the data for the past few years its the singers who are winning it.So he is the one who is going to win.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7322363.post-46927796835870347132011-09-09T10:31:00.000-04:002011-09-09T10:31:18.499-04:00Is Oracle going to takeover HP?<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> So I was calling a friend in a different country and who knows the inside details of HP.<br />
<br />
And he was telling me that there are talks going on inside the company that Oracle is going to take over the company.<br />
<br />
First the ex CEO of HP joins Oracle.<br />
<br />
Then HP stops all its business in mobile technology and tablets with webOS which it bought for 1.3 billion dollars just a year ago.<br />
<br />
Then HP says that it will spin out its PC business or will sell it.<br />
<br />
Then it announces that it will be on the servicing side just like IBM.<br />
<br />
So Oracle is another service provider and HP is a good candidate for a takeover now.<br />
<br />
Would this happen?<br />
<br />
May be.<br />
<br />
Lets wait and see.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
They were so awsome from the begning of the series.But they didn't do as good as the last time.I am really disappointed.But if they proceed to the finals I will be happy.Just want to see what they have up their sleeve for the finals.<br />
<br />
I am not going to be explaining what happened last night for each and every act.You can watch them in you tube.<br />
<br />
Here are my picks for the final 4 from last night.Lets see whats going to happen tonight.<br />
<br />
<ol><li>Landon Swank.</li>

<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
Last night at the semi finals on america's got talent 2011 every act stepped up from the previous rounds.Every one did their best.Now the question is who will win this round.</div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<br /></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
I liked <span style="color: black;">Sandou Trio Russian bar.They were ok when the girl jumped on the bar balanced on the shoulders of the two men.Then they kept some nails on the ground and then she jumped again and the judges especially Howie liked it a lot since that was "DANGEROUS" to him.</span></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<br /></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
Last night they took off the Russian Bar from the title and became just Sandou Trio.The didn't jump instead sang a song playing a piano.Did I mention that she and the piano was hanging from the ceiling and while she played they piano and her were turned upside down? The background was nice but the singing is not that great,but you have to remember that she is singing upside down.And as usual Howie mentioned that the dangerous part was missing.</div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<b> Someone should light themselves on fire and should run around the stage.So that he will be satisfied with danger part.</b></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<br /></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
Coming to my picks on the two teams.</div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<br /></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<div closure_uid_11cjz="182">
1.I liked the dancing of Miami All Stars.It was a feast to the eyes to watch.They kind of remade the dance scene from the movie "The Mask".All the guys are dressed in various shades of Jim Carrey dress and all the girls as Cameron Diaz.But no one uttered the word "The Mask".Sharon carefully said that the dance is like a movie.</div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="182">
I liked the dance.I really enjoyed it.</div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="182">
<br /></div>
<div closure_uid_11cjz="182">
Here is the clip.</div>

<div closure_uid_11cjz="132">
<br />
2.Team iLuminate:<br />
<br />
Team iLuminate was also wonderful.They have designed the dance moves as a video game.Everything computer controlled and completely like a video game.<br />
I liked it too.<br />
<br />
Here is the clip.<br />
<br />

I wish the above two acts gets through for the finals.</div>

Samsung has introduced another android phone in Sprint called Samsung Conquer. So what does Samsung Conquer bring to the table.<br />
<br />
According to Cnet:<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #cfe2f3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-size: x-small;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">The good:</strong> <span class="summary" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">The <b style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">Samsung Conquer 4G</b> is affordable and offers 4G capabilities. The Android 2.3 Gingerbread device also has a next-gen 1GHz Snapdragon processor, a front-facing camera for video calls, and mobile hot-spot capabilities.</span></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><div style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-size: x-small;"><strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">The bad:</strong> The smartphone has a lower-resolution display. Camera and speakerphone quality could be better.</span></div><div style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-size: x-small;"><strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">The bottom line:</strong> <span class="description" id="seodescription" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">Though you sacrifice some higher-end features, the Samsung Conquer 4G gives Sprint customers a solid 4G smartphone at an affordable price.</span></span></div><span style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: inherit; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><div><span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">But one has to remember that the review by cnet is not a users review but it is a reviewer's review.These reviews are done for a day or 2 with a brand new phone.So everything will work perfect.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">But only a users review will tell you what the actual story is.And that too not an immediate one.You have to wait at least 3 months.That review would be the best.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">When samsung transform came out it had similar kind of reviews.Now read about my experience with <a href="http://claqueurs.blogspot.com/2011/07/samsung-transform-phone-that.html">samsung transform.</a></span></div><div><br />
</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Whenever samsung brings something that is advertised as affordable or mid range then you have to be very careful in considering that.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Anyway below are the features for Samsung Conquer:</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
