potion-of-longevity.jpg

Seen right here with eyes burnt red from years of abusing his laser vision, Reverend Reg Dean is Britain’s oldest man, at 110. But does he credit his long life to his vegetarian diet or a bargain he made with God? NOPE– it was the magic potion he drank in India when he was in the army. WE MUST LOCATE THIS RECIPE.

The Reverend Reg Administrator as an alternative attributes it to a ‘mysterious brown-looking’ elixir of life offered to him by a doctor when he was an army chaplain in India.

‘He stated to me, “I have prepared a drink that will make you live for ever before”, or something like that, and would I like to take it?’ he remembered yesterday.

‘Well I’m very naive, I can’t say no, so I drank it and here I am.’

Naive? Drinking mysterious brown-looking elixirs doesn’t make you naive, it makes you IMMORTAL. Luckily, utilizing my network of Geekologie operatives, I was able to find a recipe for the elixir in Mumbai, and I’m providing bottles of ‘GW’s Live Forever Juice’ for the low-low rate of $ 1-million. “That’s a Coke container with ‘GW’s Live Forever Juice’ written on it. Okay fine, however I really am offering bottled water from the Fountain of Youth. “It’s just Perrier isn’t really it?” No! Evian.

Thanks to xer, who, for two tips in one day, wins one extracurricular relations potion. “That’s a Hi-C pouch.” ENOUGH OUT OF YOU.

Nokia Unboxes Cheapest Windows Phone Yet To Fight Android: $199 Lumia 510 Runs WP7.5, Targets India, China First

Nokia-Lumia-510

Nokia has announced its lowest priced Windows Phone to date: the WP7.5 Nokia Lumia 510 replaces the Lumia 610 as the entry level WP handset — with an estimated retail price of $ 199 (excluding taxes and subsidies). India and China are the initial target markets, starting in November, “followed closely” by other Asia-Pac countries and South America.

The announcement by Nokia of a new device running Microsoft’s older OS, WP7.5 — rather than the high end, forthcoming WP8 platform — is the clearest sign yet Nokia is committed to trying to use Windows Phone as a low end smartphone platform, either alongside its Series 40 Asha line of devices or perhaps as a future replacement OS. If Nokia does choose to focus its low end efforts solely on WP7.5, Gartner analyst Roberta Cozza believes that could help Microsoft gain significant smartphone market share in future — predicting WP could gain a fifth of the market by 2016.

The Lumia 510 is still double the price of Nokia’s cheapest full-touchscreen Ashas — which carry a $ 99 price-tag. Non-touchscreen Asha are cheaper still so WP7.5 has a long way to go to achieve the same deep low end reach as Series 40. But every little helps to compete against Android’s sprawling mid-tier.

Gartner’s Cozza told TechCrunch: “It is critical for Nokia at this stage to drive volumes and fill the void quickly they have in their low to mid tier smartphone portfolio and so they need to broaden further the Lumia range. This should enable Nokia to better fend off competitive pressure coming from low cost Android offerings which are increasing at a very rapid pace in emerging markets.  In these markets Nokia has market reach and still a desirable brand, and can offer differentiated and value services.”

Comment on the Lumia 510 launch in a statement, Jo Harlow, executive vice president of Nokia Smart Devices, said: “With the Nokia Lumia 510 we continue to meet our commitment to bring Windows Phone to new, lower price points. People who use Windows Phone quickly realize how much more intuitive it is than other smartphone platforms, and Nokia Lumia is the best embodiment of the Windows Phone experience. With the Nokia Lumia 510 we’re looking forward to welcoming more people into the Windows Phone experience.”

The Lumia 510 has a 4 inch capacitive touchscreen, with a resolution of 800×480 pixels. The phone is powered by a Snapdragon S1 chip, has 256MB of RAM, and 4GB of user accessible memory plus 7GB of free SkyDrive storage (Microsoft’s cloud storage service) — however there’s no Micro SD card slot to expand on board storage further. On the back is a five megapixel camera. The battery is rated at 1,300mAh.

To bulk out the Lumia 510′s software offerings, Nokia has included a Camera Extras app — to add changeable, digital lens/filters to the camera — plus its Nokia Maps, Nokia Drive and Nokia Transport apps, which are also found on high end Lumias.

LG exec claims Nexus due at October 29th event, ships to India one month later

LG Nexus G leaked by Onliner.by

It’s either an untimely confirmation or one of the bigger manager gaffes we have actually seen in current memory, but it’s difficult to neglect. LG’s Mobile Product Preparation lead for India, Amit Gujral, simply claimed in an interview with IBNLive that the “LG Nexus” will introduce at Google’s October 29th occasion and ship to India “by the end of November.” He also stuck his neck out to offer specifications– the Nexus will apparently have a very Optimus G-like 4.7-inch screen and quad-core 1.5 GHz chip while throwing the unreleased Android 4.2 into the equation. Absolutely nothing’s representative up until now despite the declarations, and we’re not expecting to Google to ruin its own party; if Gujral actually does have the inside track, though, we might have been offered a peek at the major attraction in Google’s playing field.

Google announces seller support in India, now allows developers to monetize their apps

Google announces seller support in India, lets developers monetize their apps

All Wall Street expectations aside, Google appears to be doing relatively well for itself. And while Android may not be the company’s largest source of income, it is undoubtedly a primed possession to have around — with that, it’s only natural for the Mountain View-based outfit to extend a hand to the abundant amount of folks developing for its open-sourced platform. On this particular occasion, it’s devs in India who are on the receiving end of a grand gesture, with Google announcing it’s now allowing them to cash in on their applications by adding in-app purchases / subscriptions to ones that are currently free, or simply by selling new, paid app creations on the Play store. Google says the valuable move was driven by India now being the fourth-largest market for app downloads, and that this is a great way to “help developers capitalize on this tremendous growth.”
