People over the time settled in Chennai. But those who settled, embraced the local culture and did not alienated it, very unlike in Bangalore's case.

Bangalore prices have dropped but not yet TN. Believe me, this is not only the case in madras but in trichy too. BMTC is certainly better than chennai MTC in cleanliness but i agree with all of u in connectivity part. BMTC needs to improve. Also BMTC is costlier. Kerala autos and Bangalore autos are best autos. But go to madurai, though the meters are not there, what they ask is slightly higher than what they meter in bangalore. considering the usage of autos is not that high in madurai, what they ask is reasonable. Easily madurai autos can be metered. I guess kovai also the similar case. But my beloved city Trichy and next favourite chennai !!! kollakkara pasanga are running autos there. I find bangalore a lot cleaner than chennai but still in future i may move to chennai :)

Autos: Forget it ! patient commuters: civil revolution? Real Estate: I had this discussion with one of my frnds who was trying to buy a house. Every are should be given a rating of sorts and prices be a direct factor of those ratings. Roads, Electricity availability, Water table level and situation, Security, Connectivity, resource availability etc ... and factor them into a value that corresponds the Max limit [something like MRP]. Probably the government should fix that.

You may find it good after that. And abt the usage - you may feel you dont have anything to use with it - but once you have it you ll literally find reasons. So good to invest in a good 3G phone and take advantage of it first when 3G comes to India. Also, i saw that Google Maps started showing turn by turn navigation - and quite possible iphone comes of much help there... If its not iphone - i would recommend some thing in the lines of HTC Hero which has an Android phone. But if its a "phone" - then N79, expressmusic or some Sonyericsson would be good. But i strongly recommend iphone - youll not feel bad ! No, India – we dont have a 3G network yet and they are debuting this year end if everything goes well. You may find it good after that.

Maybe.] I ,for one,can never figure out where to stand in the bus stand to catch the bus.The guy's always a mile ahead or behind me .Someday,though. :-P was thinking more on the lines of a clean and quick MRTS like the ones in Singapore or the trams in germany[too much to ask for,in India ?

Chennai has one of the best transport systems in India. The much maligned MTC buses are brilliant for getting anywhere in and around the city. You should try em some time. Also, patient commuters? Seriously? Find me one city in the world with patient people during rush hour and I'll eat my hat. Umm. . Chennai has one of the best transport systems in India.
