Rating: I have always been a Canon EOS guy. Back in 1999, I bought my first Canon Rebel 2000. A fantastic camera with stunning colors.

Recently before we embarked on a trip to India, I bought the Sony Cybershot DSC T300 Digital Camera for my wife. We found it very difficult to get a black one and I had to order in multiple places to make sure we got one before we left for our trip.
My wife used to have a Canon IXUS 500 that she bought a few years back. It was a fantastic camera and served her well till my daughter destroyed it’s LCD display at the back. After the trip, I asked my wife what she thought of the Sony Cybershot T300 Digital Camera and the answer I got was not too positive.
The camera itself was very easy to hold and shoot. In fact, with the arm band, you could hold it with one hand and shoot in a variety of positions and formats. The interface was touch based and with a huge 3.5″ LCD display at the back, it was not too difficult to master the settings and options tabs.

Finally, I managed to re-launch our 5 year old website - GadgetBase! It started out as an ecommerce website filled with gadgets and products from drop shipping companies. The first year was quite good, we did some heavy promotion, got ourselves indexed well, got into Froogle and had a few sales.
However, drop shipping companies, by nature are not reliable. Well most of them any way. So, we started having problems with orders, delivery, quality etc. I gave up about 2 years ago and focused my time on other ventures.
However, my love for gadgets, draws me back to this domain again. I have been thinking about it for a couple of months now, deciding what to do with it. Since I buy a lot of gadgets and read a lot about gadgets in general, I thought I should perhaps run a gadget review blog. I hope to also invite others to write reviews on gadgets here.
