This week, India’s delay story continued (Mobile Number Portability Delayed [Again]) and Bharti Telesoft launched Virtual Phone numbers enabling one to have 10 numbers in 1 phone paving way for rural penetration (though they are still talking to operators for implementation).
Music stores witnessed interesting launches – A R Rahman launched his own online music store and BIG Music partnered with T Series and Hungama for exclusive partnership. Sad news of the week goes to Bajaj scooters for deciding to kill their scooter product line.
