On the launch, M A Madhusudan, chief executive officer, Virgin Mobile India, said, “We have now made facilities such as video recording and 1.3 mega pixel camera more affordable for youth so that they can capture and share impromptu moments spent with their friends and family without hurting their pockets.”
The phone also includes a video player, MicroSD card support, a 262K colour screen, and WAP and MMS support.
”According to reports, there will be over 50 million new youth subscribers added over the next three years in India, and we expect to take a good share of this incremental market,” Madhusudan added.
The handset will be available in India for Rs 3,499 across 25,000 outlets and over 1,000 retail outlets including The Mobile Store, Univercell, Croma, Convergem, Big C, Vishal Mega Mart, Planet M, Vijay Sales and Sangeetha, to name a few. |
