I just got it. But there's some problem with it. The 9 character unique code is non existent. There is space for it but it's empty. I sent a mail to help@thinkdigit.com but what i got was a self generated reply. Any admin out here to help.???

Re: Preview + Feedback [June 2010] - Disappointed

I finally got my copy 2 days back but not much impressed with it (even if its the 9th anniversary) :-(

I have been Digit subscriber for almost 5 years now but in the last 1 yr or so feel that the magazine quality has actually gone down...
Earlier scenario: I usually get to read it for around an hour or so in the night & that way used to find the whole month not sufficient to complete the magazine cover to cover, as most (if not all) articles used to be very interesting.
Current scenario: I'm done with the entire magazine in 2 to max 5 days -- though its mostly a quickly glance, I do read some of the articles full.. But still the content is very light or generic and not awe-inspiring.. Not as good as how it was earlier.

The feedback printed on the magazine is also usually the most positive ones -- raising a doubt whether Digit is sidelining the other type of comments completely & getting a bit complacent.

I don't believe recent focus on Social Networking & Open Source can bring this difference... Would like Digit to review this and do the needful, so that subscriber interest is retained.

Even the product comparisons of late seem not to include the best and usual reasoning given is that comparison include all models made available by respective manufacturer within the time period. If the models being made available are really small in number, are the manufacturers not seeing the value in Digit's comparison? Are they not feeling compelled to feature in Digit? Shouldn't Digit think about how to makes its value proposition more compelling so that unbiased & proper comparison highlights the best (across different categories) in the market -- so that the manufacturer's target customer group gets to know their product is the best for their group category?

Its definitely time for Digit to look within as well as outside and innovate itself to remain the best in business.

Felt like wiki copy paste ..

It's not just that. I don't remember the exact words, but a bit of the article went this way :

"Has anybody noticed why anime characters have such large eyes? Apart from the fact that the Japs are a bunch of gay fu*****ds, the reason...."

Should Digit have allowed something like this to creep in?

I am really sorry, it is not the fast track, but the skoar! mini. But yes, it is printed as it is.

Page 96, under the "How to Recognize Anime" section.

Seriously GUYS!!!!!! Bull.....

I mean this was a anniversary issue right???I mean yeah I appreciate the effort
but find that digit lost its lusture . Earlier when I used to read the digit magazine I could forget all about the world coz my world was just in front of me at the time.
But now ......its a different story .I am definite that this is a seriously overpriced issue after reading the magazine.The issue isn't even qualified to run for a 150 rs price.
The comparison article was not worth it.Plus I missed the review of Games in this issue(Don't tell me to read the skoar mini).

This issue was a sad excuse for a magazine.

You at least got a voucher and can redeem it for something, people who got the Rs.890/- voucher are still waiting for training.con to reply to us, since 10 days and we still are not sure if we would get something. Maybe, you can exchange it with someone or if you have a friend, you can use the voucher for the friend and sell the issue to him :smile:

Hi.

Please make sure to write in to help @ thinkdigit . com for the following:

1. DVDs not working
2. Missing Pages
3. Code invalid (Try replacing 0 with o, or vice versa if your code contains that)

I will try and find out what's up with the response from training.com, and post here.

This line was in old SKOAR issue which I got when I fragged 7 other guys in MOHA.It was two years ago,I think, in Mumbai.
Just tell me is there a line such as 'no wonder they got nuked' or something like that?If there is then it's copy-paste for sure.

Moral of the story:You tell me.

P.S.:I am not buying this time.2-3 more months and no digit issue for entire year.Last I bought was in 2009 august maybe,I'm not sure.

^ yep that line is there.

Well, I hadn't notice that line but will check it. So that article is copy paste...

ALSO, I have not got a response from training.com...

exchange it from someone who needs rs150 coupon to get a old issue for the training course.

PS: I already donated the coupon 890rs course to my 10 year old cousin. Thanks digit...hope it works!!
