    not really, india tech support sucks, have you ever tried 'customer service' with intuit? i usually try and avoid companies that outsource to india, otherwise it seems i just get cookie cutter replies read back to me before they say reinstall your operating system. i telemcommute working for software as a service vendor. one of our competitors outsources their helpdesk to india, and we regularly get their customers because of the complaints.

    hey, not everyone gets database optimization right the first time! and some database programmers work better visually, than tactically! then again, it could be just that his boss asked, "is it really searching for anything? why don't i see anything?"

  24. Re:What? no USB or HDMI on Samsung Unveils Galaxy Tab 10.1, Galaxy S II · · Score: 1

    Yes, in the article it is a bit confusing, I think it was referring to the Tab, and they don't mention the microUSB. I hope you are right about the Galaxy S II being microUSB, otherwise I'm not getting it for sure, I hate proprietary power... :)

  25. Re:What? no USB or HDMI on Samsung Unveils Galaxy Tab 10.1, Galaxy S II · · Score: 1

    he was quoting from the article, which states it will be using a proprietary charging cable, and no USB (im guessing that includes micro-USB)
