Can you ditch your smartphone? A Challenge
Engadget Mobile has come up with a novel idea, rather a challenge.
The challenge is simple: Ditch your smartphone for a month and try to live with a the basic Nokia 1100.
Hmmm must say it is a very intriguing challenge in this age of Web 2.0 or atleast you would think so, but according to figures of Nokia, there are over 200 million people who are using this set and haven't upgraded to any other smart phone.
I honestly cannot think of a day without my Nokia N70 phone. Though I don't use any of the smart phone applications but I cannot stay without listening to music and taking snaps from my phone. What do you say?
Feel free to let me know your experience if you take up the challenge. Or if you are one of my kind, do tell me what feature from your phone you cannot do without.
iPhone 3G coming on BSNL soon
The only answer to this is to wait and watch.
Spice and Idea merger in the offing
After the merger, Idea Cellular will become the 5th largest mobile operator in India after Bharti Airtel, Reliance, Vodafone Essar and BSNL unseating Tata Teleservices.
This will also help Idea gain a strong foothold in Punjab and Karnataka circles where it had no representation though Idea already has operations in Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi and Maharashtra, the four circles where Spice had been granted licence to operate in but is still awaiting the spectrum allocation before it could roll out services.
Being a Spice customer myself, hoping that this deal would happen for better and the services of Spice improves and not vice versa
