Thanks for the tip, I chose samsung 793S and it worked.
Btw: I got into a real jam. I clicked Applications-->System Settings -->Language and changed it to my "mother tongue" tamil. I was completely lost. It was completely translated into tamil and I couldn't understand a word. I mean I can read the words but they didn't have any meaning to me. I speak tamil at home and at office but this sent me into a spin. I didn't even know the menu words that meant "Applications-->System Settings -->Language" so I could revert back to english. Somehow through hit or miss I managed to grope back into the light of the english language. I guess my "mother tongue" is english now since I seem to know english much more than tamil. Let us get rid of all other languages other than english or reserve them for poetry.
From now on I am going to stick to the language english ( and c/ c++ / basic ... :) ).
