Appholes

Apple store genius employees must be the snortiest guys to ever work in any place. They dont seem to even know the concept of customer service.

I was in the apple store yesterday and when I asked one of them for help, the first answer I get is, I need to register with some guy at the door to even talk to someone in there. The employee acted as if she was doing me a big favor by even telling me that. Ok I give you that the store was full and almost everyone was acting busy, but that doesnt make them forget the first rule of customer service. Be polite.

The experience is so bad I am never going to go back to that place ever again. BTW, with all the crap iphone4 is getting now and the way they are handling the PR and the issue, looks like the fruit stayed out for too long and now its going rotten.

To reiterate Jon, App-holes.

I was doing a routine check of all the stuff on orugallu.net and was amused at the way the site tags were showing. Checkout the tags in the image below.

My top gadgets

I always get excited whenever a new gadget comes to the market and most often end up buying it. This is the list of my fav 5 gadgets that I own.

Samsung HDTV	This was my bday gift 3 years back and has been the #1 fav since then.
XBOX Elite	Xbox is the best gaming console in the market – dont really care what others say and Elite is the best in the line.
Nikon D80	I started taking a liking to photography recently and that bumped this up to the #3 spot. I plan to upgrade this soon, but until then I dont see a reason why this should lose its position
iphone	Doesn’t need a reason to be up here
PSP 3000 series	Portability rules.

The ones that did not make the top 5 but are my favorites are

PS3 (not slim)	I never watch my movies on a regular player anymore. Waiting for Sony to release its 3D firmware upgrade to this so I can watch 3D movies right at home.
HTC Pure	The best out there running Windows Mobile 6.5. Bit of an antique after the recent announcement about windows 7 phone series.
Creative NOMAD JukeBox Zen Xtra	I have had this for almost 6 years now and I still hear music on this player only at work. Never had a problem, never stopped working. Now please dont give up on me any time soon either.

XBOX – Dragon Age – Origins

There are those who have doubted, who have forgotten. But it is our duty to remember – Dragon Age: Origins.

This is from an upcoming game on XBOX – Dragon Age: Origins. The background score in the trailer is really good and succeeds in generating the tempo needed for the trailer to make its impact and leave a mark. Check out the game details here http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/d/dragonageorigins/.
