Google Android Mobile Phone Launch in India
HTC[High Tech Computer] the taiwan based mobile phone handset maker has announced that its going to launch the Android based mobile phones in India by this December, also at almost same pricing which would be around Rs8200 while these google phones are sold at 179$.
Currently the HTC india is looking for tie-ups with Indian mobile operators who can launch and we can expect Airtel and Vodafone, because these 2 operators are quick in implementing new services and launching them like the Apple iPhone in India was launched.
Android is a Linux-based operating system for mobile devices that was announced in November last year and developed by the Open Handset Alliance — a group comprising players like Google, HTC, Intel, Motorola and Samsung.
This new Google Phone – Andriod HTC Device is going to be a 3G phone with slider keyboard, GPS, Wifi-web browsing feature & Touch-screen. Currently HTC India already has partnership with Airtel and hence we can expect google phones with airtel in India very soon with a sales target of around a million handsets sold in India by 2009 end.
