Reminds me of two brothers that I know. They ask too many questions. And no, not the intelligent ones. Ones for which the answers have been found!

You remind me of a freind of mine whom I taught a couple of days back, how to set a scheduler alarm on his mobile phone!
Once he learnt it, he was jubilated. He now says, he can organize his otherwise quite busy life.

Next month, he is going to USA for about a year. He says, although he would not need and use a mobile phone in there, still he would take it along for its `scheduler value` to too much to be missed.

I told him, he could purchase a PDA from 30$ to 1000$. He is again very excited.

So Gautham, my dear sir, techonology is about possiblities - not liabilities.

If you enjoy watching movies on your DVD, may be you would enjoy more, if you could see photos of your son`s birthday on the same TV / DVD !!!!

All the best, anyway.
