Burning Recall

Well, the recalls from most of the companies have been painful. What else, the notebook recall. Dell's notebooks started burning. Then last week, Lenova's too. Most of the companies have joined in the recall of their units. Even Apple, Toshiba & Fujitsu adding up the total to around like 7 million books... And I guess HP's recall has nothing to do with this.

And the culprit is Sony! Sony batteries have got all the bad names because of the short circuits, burns & explosions. So, is it time for a transition from Sony to Sanyo or Panasonic? Can the competitors promise a better product? Will it be a fast transition? What'll happen to all the losses which the whole industry has been experiencing? Or can Sony retain these businesses with a much better, reliable & quality battery?

Even otherwise, will these bad quality have effect on other Sony's products? May be this'll have some effect on PS3 sales!!!

Hmm... Why different?

Atlast found some time to scribe something... It's been travel all these times and trying to get settled and ofcourse, am still trying...:)

While I was finding ways to travel, smethings came up like - I was looking for the rates to fly from Chennai to Hyderabad and back - And came up with so many rates like SpiceJet is offering a flight journey for Rs.99/- while KingFisher is offering the same distance for around Rs. 2700/-. Well, all the other airlines like Indian Airlines, Air Deccan do fall inbetween.

So, why is such a price difference? Can people fly for Rs.99/-. That's like USD2!!:) How can SpiceJet operate for profit? If that is the price, then would ever people want to drive or atleast take a train to go from Chennai to Hyderabad? Is there any customer service difference in flights like SpiceJet and KingFisher? Time to learn the Indian Air market, I guess!
