iPhone Rate Plans Revealed

Today Apple posted a page detailing the cost of the iPhone rate plans (US). And they aren’t as bad as most people had thought. All plans have unlimited data (nice!) - $60 for 450 minutes, $80 for 900 minutes and $100 for 1350 minutes. Existing AT&T customers can add unlimited data for $20 - $40 with a varying number of text messages.

  • All iPhone service plans include Visual Voicemail and unlimited data — Internet and email — so you only have to decide how many minutes and SMS text messages you need. You’ll select your plan when you activate your iPhone using iTunes on your computer.
  • If you’re already an AT&T customer and want to keep your current voice plan, you can just add an iPhone Data Plan with unlimited data (email and web) and Visual Voicemail for just $20 per month.

Restore XP setting on every reinstall

I have been using this function for a lenghty time for friend's computer and my own computer. When you install fresh copy of Windows XP your settings are all wiped out and you have to set all again. This will not be done now.

just open RUN
type MIGWIZ.EXE
[press enter]
click NEXT
Select OLD COMPUTER radio button
Click NEXT
Select "Other (for example a removeable drive or network drive)"
Click BROWSE and give it a path where you want to save all your current settings
Click NEXT
Now select "SETTINGS ONLY"
Click NEXT

let the machine save all your current settings only.

You have a peace of mind that your settings are saved...

[TO RESTORE ALL THE SAVED SETTING WHEN YOU HAVE REINSTALLED YOUR WINDOWS XP]

just open RUN
type MIGWIZ.EXE
[press enter]
click NEXT
select NEW COMPUTER radio button
click NEXT
Select "I dont need the wizard disk............" and
Click NEXT
select "Other (for example a removeable drive or network drive)"
click NEXT after selecting the path

SEE THE WINDOWS XP RESTORE YOUR DESKTOP, QUICKLAUNCH, AND OTHER SETTINGS SAME AS BEFORE YOU RESINSTALLED WINDOWS. NO NEED TO SET ALL THE SETTING YOURSELF.

Software Panchatantra

Once upon a time, there was a software engineer who used to develop
programs on his Pentium machine, sitting under a tree on the banks of a
river. He used to earn his bread by selling those programs in the Sunday
market.

One day, while he was working, his machine tumbled off the table and
fell in the river. Encouraged by the Panchatantra story of his childhood
(the woodcutter and the axe ),

He started praying to the River Goddess. The River Goddess wanted to
test him and so appeared only after one month of rigorous prayers. The
engineer told her that he had lost his computer in the river.


As usual, the Goddess wanted to test his honesty. She showed him a
match box and asked, " Is this your computer ?" Disappointed by the
Goddess' lack of computer awareness, the engineer replied, " No."

She next showed him a pocket-sized calculator and asked if that was
his.

Annoyed, the engineer said "No, not at all!!"


Finally, she came up with his own Pentium machine and asked if it was
his.

The engineer, left with no option, sighed and said " Yes."

The River Goddess was happy with his honesty. She was about to give

Him all three items, but before she could make the offer, the engineer

Asked her, "Don't you know that you're supposed to show me some better
computers before bringing up my own ?"

The River Goddess, angered at this, replied, "I know that, you stupid
donkey! The first two things I showed you were the Trillennium and the
Billennium, the latest computers from IBM !". So saying, she disappeared
with the Pentium!!
