Nokia Lumia 1020 listed on Flipkart as coming soon

By Vijay @ 09:29pm

The Nokia Lumia 1020 started out as an exclusive on AT&T in US. Although it didn’t take too long before the device started appearing in other markets. First up was China, then other countries slowly gained the list. For example, a few days ago it went on sale in Germany (and it was the 64GB variant too!). Up next however, is going to be India. Details below.

Head on over to Flipkart and you’ll see the Lumia 1020 sitting there getting ready for you. The device has a “notify me” page set up for anyone interested in the device. Availability is listed as “coming soon”. Unfortunately, details are a bit scarce. There is no pricing on the page. It’s the 32GB model though, not the 64GB which is exclusive to Vodafone. You’ll have your choice of white, yellow, or black when the devices do become available.

We’ll of course let you guys and gals know when more information comes in. Any of our readers in India looking forward to the Lumia 1020? Let me know below in comments…

Good News for Vodafone Customers: Vodafone announces free Twitter access for all subscribers in India..

By Vijay @ 02:38pm

Vodafone today announced it is offering free Twitter access to both its postpaid and prepaid subscribers in India. The offer is applicable till November 1 and will enable its subscribers to access the official Twitter app or Twitter’s mobile website (mobile.twitter.com) for free. The free access is not applicable for accessing Twitter via third-party apps or clicking links on tweets that takes the user to external websites.

This is not the first time Twitter has tied up with an Indian carrier. Earlier Twitter had a similar tie-up with RCom. Under the Vodafone offer, users using ‘portalnmms’ APN will have to change it to ‘www’ to avail the offer. Vodafone subscribers won’t have to do anything to avail the free Twitter access. The carrier’s website gives an impression that Vodafone won’t charge for any traffic coming from Twitter’s official app or from its mobile website.
