At TechPP, we have always stressed upon the importance of backing up the data - either via Online Backup or Offline backup. Ocster Backup Pro 5 is one of those many backup software which are designed to work fully automatic. All you need to do is to simply specify the folders to backup and it does the rest.

ocster-backup-pro-5

One of the features of Ocster Backup Pro 5 which I love is the Versioning. The software keeps multiple old versions of your files and you can access them any time! A big percentage of data losses are accidental file modifications or deletions. This feature makes it easy to recover your data if you make a mistake. You can backup your data on external local hard disk, on a network drive or on the specially secured and highly reliable Ocster Secure Storage Server. In addition, it also has the ability to secure the back file with different encryption modes like AES 128 Bit, AES 256 Bit, BlowFish and Cast-128.

  • Fully Automatic: Creates fully automatic backups of your data.

cdma-iphone-india Less than a week back WSJ reported that they have enough reasons to believe CDMA iPhone coming to Verizon in Jan 2011 and now again, they are reporting that Apple is in talks with two Indian CDMA operators - Reliance Communications and Tata Indicom for bringing the iPhone 4 on CDMA in India. The discussions have apparently been ongoing for four or five months according to one WSJ source. At present, Apple is selling the outdated iPhone 3GS handsets in India in association with Airtel and Vodafone. iPhone 4 launch in India was expected to be in October, but there are no real indications of that happening anytime soon. Though the CDMA market is just around 20% in India, it is still huge compared to other parts in the world, with more than 670 million CDMA subscribers in the country. iPhone's GSM version has till now failed to make any impact on Indian market due to various factors including the absurd data plans and unsubsidized prices. The CDMA version might not really outdo what the GSM version of iPhone has done till now. It is still a welcome news for Indian consumers...

india-rupee-sign The new India Rupee symbol has now been added into the Unicode standard. This comes within 3 months of selecting and approving the new symbol. Though many of the Indian websites and newspapers had started using the font unofficially, for widespread usage, the new Rupee symbol had to be accepted by the Unicode Consortium's Unicode Technical Committee that is responsible for the development and maintenance of the Unicode Standard, including the Unicode Character Database. Yesterday, The Unicode Consortium announced the new Unicode Standard 6.0 that adds 2088 characters, with over 1000 new symbols, including that for the Indian Rupee.

rupee-unicode

The official Unicode character code for the Indian Rupee symbol is U+20B9. Please note that you might not be able to use the Rupee sign right away, since none of the major font families have updated their fonts to support Unicode Standard 6.0. The easiest way to determine which of the installed fonts on your PC can display the newly added Rupee sign is to visit this page and check for yourself. [via]

The Chronic dev team have finally released the Greenpois0n tool to jailbreak iOS 4.1 on Windows. If you remember, Greenpois0n was supposed to be released on 10/10/10 and was expected to make use of SHAtter bootrom exploit. But then, Geohot's shocking re-entry to the jailbreaking scene with Limera1n messed up all the plans for the Chronic dev team as they didn't want Apple to catch and fix two exploits at once. So now, Greenpois0n makes use of the same exploit as Limera1n and works on Windows only for now. The Mac version is expected to come out soon. Greenpois0n currently works on iOS 4.1 for the following devices only - iPhone 4 - iPhone 3GS - iPod touch 4G - iPod touch 3G - iPad Future release will support the following devices too: - Apple TV 2G - iPod touch 2G

wp7-good-bad Microsoft announced around ten different WP7 devices including LG Optimus 7, Samsung Omnia 7 and five different HTC 7 devices earlier today. Steve Ballmer described the new line of Windows Phones as "different" from the competition and with focus on two things: always delightful, and wonderfully mine. The always delightful part refers to the UI and the user experience which comes loaded as part of the operating system. While the wonderfully mine part refers to the personalization of the phone's homepage. As you expect from any major product release, you are bound to bump upon extreme views and opinions about the new line of products. Here is an effort to help you know, understand and analyze the Windows Phone 7 handsets with minimal bias and maximum facts.

What's Good about Windows Phone 7?

1. Brand new architecture - Unlike RIM and Nokia, Microsoft has actually designed the Windows Phone 7 OS right from the scratch, from bottom-up, which is very encouraging. The brand new architecture isn't anything like Apple's iOS or Google's Android. 2. 'Metro' UI - WP7 boasts of a brand new user interface which looks really cool. Unlike the bland icons of iOS or...
