aia99: ivo 6622 is also 1.3ghz and it has ota update constantly(which i had updated twice) than pioneer p2,the build quality is also better than p2,it functions flawlessly than p2,it doesn't run out of RAM quickly like p2,you can enable 3g on both sims on 6622,there are indications that 6622 will be updated to android v4.3 and 4.4

@Niscolinx now you have a better explanation. So make your choice wisely.

Niscolinx: Pls guys cn u advice me on d one 2 buy between opsson ivo 6622 and gionee p2, i kw d specs bt i really wnt sm1 dat has had a taste of d two phones. Pls dnt b biased

I am using GP2 while my bro uses opsson ivo 6622. advantages of p2 over 6622 are:
-1.3ghz CPU to 1.2
-1700mmah to 1600mmah
-ota/ system update
free 8gb external mcard to 4gb on oppsson
advantages of oppsson over p2.
-better camera performance
-i tried these two games from Nekki VECTOR and SHADOWS FIGHT 2 that are slow on my p2 but fast on my brother's oppsson.
These are the difference I can list for now.

nani.666:
LOL...this thread is filled with ......okay o....I no dey follow una argue again.....

Nani u re right. A launcher and a theme are two diff things. A launcher is responsible for the graphics design,structure and animations in a phone's UI(user interface). A theme will only work with a launcher. even if u change a theme,the launcher remains(d style of home screens, the way the menu are arrange and other structural designs of the UI) intact. that is why some themes don't work unless u ve a certain launcher.

It's Friday again. wish you guys all the best

Thank u. I thought sharing this with d NLDERS will be a good thing to do. Most mobile users are doing more harm than good to their eyes by looking at their phone screen all the night surfing the net and other stuffs.

Airbag protection in a car crash is a great blessing. Its life-saving function is assured by extreme technical precision. In an emergency, the airbag control system works at lightning speed to inflate the protective airbag and control the belt pretensioner, belt preloader, rollbar and other protective devices. But maximum safety is only assured if the driver and front passenger are sitting in the correct position. Whether an airbag really does save lives in an emergency depends on the correct behaviour of the car's driver and passengers. "Fasten your seat belt" is the golden rule.
# An airbag is certainly not a substitute for a seat belt. Even in car with airbags, always fasten your your seat belt setting off. For instance:if a car first has frontal collision and then impacts another obstacle, the frontal airbag will only open during the first collision and can no longer help during the second. In this case, head and/or side airbags offer additional protection. But your seat belt protects you all the time.

# "Sit correctly - even as a passenger" is another requirement. A distance of at least 30cm is required to ensure ideal airbag protection. The driver's seat should not be placed too close to the steering wheel, while the backrest should not be angled too steeply. This is the only way to ensure that the driver is caught by the airbag when fully inflated and protected optimally in a crash.

# Front-seat passengers should also move their seats as far back as possible, and sit upright. Do not put your feet on the dashboard during the journey. Otherwise, the airbag cannot unfold properly and will only push your legs back (which can cause injury).

# Avoid smoking during your journey. An inflating airbag could push the cigarette into your face. And do not decorate your dashboard with hard objects. The airbag lid bursts off very quickly and could turn these into dangerous projectiles.

# Additional precautions should be taken he your vehicle is also equipped with head/or side airbags in the doors or seat back. Do not lean your head or shoulder against the car door during your journey, since the airbag will not have enough space to inflate and will only push you away instead. Do not use seat covers that also cover the airbags, and do not hang any coat hangers or other hard objects on the clothes hooks.

# If children are in the car special precautions need to be taken. Protect them by using sleep supports or good children's seats that are fitted on the back seat and match the child's size. Never fit a backward-facing ("reboard" children's seat to a seat with an airbag in front. Reboards are catapulted backwards by the inflating airbag along with the child, whic can cause grave injury, if the child faces backwards. Only few luxury cars automatically deactivate the airbag when a reboard is in use - and only if the device has a manufacturer permit and is equipped with an electronic mini-transmitte that sends a command to the airbag electronics.

Does looking at a
computer/phone damage your
eyes?
By April Cashin-Garbutt, BA Hons (Cantab) The old saying goes that
watching too much TV will
make your eyes go square.
Nowadays, we seem to spend
most of our time looking at
screens: be it a computer screen at work, a mobile
phone screen to make a call
or a TV screen to relax. But
how bad is looking at screens
for our eyes? Is there really
any truth behind the old saying? According to Dr Blakeney, an
optometric adviser to the
College of Optometrists,
computers will not
permanently damage the
eyes; however, they can cause strain or exacerbate existing
eye conditions. (1) What problems do
looking at computer
screens cause? People who look at
computers frequently, (in
particular those that look at a
computer for more than
three hours a day), (2) may
experience symptoms such as: Eye discomfort Headaches Itchy eyes Dry or watering eyes Burning sensations Changes in color perception Blurred vision Difficulty focussing (1, 2, 3) Eyestrain Eyestrain is a type of
repetitive strain injury (RSI)
that is caused by insufficient
rest periods, incorrect
working conditions and so
forth. (2, 4) There are many causes of
eyestrain. One of these is
glare. There are two types of glare,
direct and indirect. Direct
glare is where light shines
directly in your eyes; whereas
indirect glare is caused by
light reflecting off surfaces into your eyes. (3) Glare often results from
computer screens being too
dark or too bright. (2, 5) Glare leads to eye muscle
fatigue, for the eyes have to
struggle to make out the
images on the screen. (2) Another major cause of
eyestrain is the position of
the computer screen. Naturally, the eyes are
positioned so that they look
straight ahead and slightly
down. If the eyes have to look in a
different direction, the
muscles have to continually
work to hold this position. Thus, if your computer
monitor is positioned
incorrectly, the eye muscles
must constantly work to hold
the eyes in the correct
position to view the monitor. (2) In order to prevent the eyes
becoming strained in this way,
the top of your computer
screen should be no higher
than eye level. (3) Dry eye syndrome According to the NHS, using
your computer correctly can
also help to prevent dry eye
syndrome. Dry eye syndrome is a
condition in which the eyes
become inflamed due to a
lack of tears. This lack of
tears is commonly due to a
blockage of the oil secreting glands in the eyes. Although this condition
causes discomfort, it does not
usually affect vision. (6) Ways to minimise
damage to your eyes
caused by computer
screens There are several ways you
can minimise the potential
damage to your eyes caused
by looking at computer
screens. Firstly, it is important to set
up your computer screen so
that it is in the correct
position in relation to your
eyes. As previously mentioned, the
top of the screen should be in
line with your eye level. In
addition, the screen should be
placed approximately 18-30
inches from you. The screen should also be
tilted slightly back – between
10 to 15 degrees depending
on the person’s particular
preference. This is so that you
do not receive glare from lights in the ceiling. (3, 7) Glare can also be avoided by
placing blinds over nearby
windows, or using a glare
screen. (2, 5) In addition to adjusting the
position of your screen, you
can also minimise eye
problems by simply blinking
more frequently. Many people don’t realise
that they actually blink less
when they look at a screen.
(2) Blinking is important,
however, as it washes your
eyes in their naturally
therapeutic fluids. (5) It is also important to take
breaks from looking at your
screen. One easy way to
remember this is to think of
20-20-20. This reminds you
that every 20 minutes you should try to look at
something 20 feet away for a
minimum of 20 seconds. (5) It is also recommended to
take breaks from your screen
altogether, in particular every
2 hours. (2) Can looking at screens
improve eyesight? Despite the potential eye
problems caused by looking
at a screen too frequently,
research carried out in the US
has actually found that some
screen viewing can be of benefit to the eyes. Specifically, they found that
playing video games can
improve vision. This is because playing video
games gives the users chance
to improve their contrast
sensitivity. ( Contrast sensitivity refers to
how faded an object can be
before it is impossible to
differentiate it from the same
field of view. It is something
that is affected by ageing. (8, 9) Contrast sensitivity is
particularly important for
activities such as driving in
poor visibility, like in fog or
at night. ( Overall does looking at
computers damage your
eyes? Overall it seems that although
looking at a computer may
not cause permanent eye
damage, it can cause some
irritating problems, such as
eye strain and dry eyes. It is also important to
remember, that there are
many other potential
problems associated with
sitting down and staring at a
computer for long periods of times, such as deep vein
thrombosis (DVT). (10)
