Apple has launched the ipod mini which cost around $250. And since now the online music business is picking up heat you can get a mp3 song as low as 0.88$ from Wal-Mart. So doing the math you can get 1000 songs on your ipod for 0.88*1000 + 250 = $1130. Which is still expensive. In another six month or so it should be available in sub 1000$.

Credit reporting system works perfectly in America. Lenders can go and check any persons credit history and decide whether the person is credit worthy or not. This is a completely integrated system every person with a SSN and a credit account exists in this system. This system works perfectly because money is involved in this case.

Has anyone ever thought for a similar system for patient’s medical history where every hospital, pharmacy and clinic reports the patient’s medical record? This system can work like a life saving system where the patient’s history is available immediately in case of emergency.

Quite often I think there is so big difference between developing and developed world. There are many small things that can be implemented easily in developing world and it can make a big difference. I am not talking about Emerging Technologies, Enterprises and Markets. If you are looking for that visit Rajesh Jain web log http://www.emergic.org/.This is my first day at writing blog so please excuse me for mistakes.Wal-Mart is already out with 199$ Lindows OS PC. But the question is who is going to buy that in America. Will any one having Windows PC buy it? The answer is Never.Instead they should try selling it in part of world where people don’t have PC where people don’t know what is Window or Lindows .
