TATA DOCOMO RIM to launch BlackBerry solution

NEW DELHI, INDIA: Tata DOCOMO, the GSM brand of Tata Teleservices Limited, and Research In Motion (RIM) today announced the launch of the BlackBerry solution on Tata DOCOMO’s GSM platform.

TATA DOCOMO would offer the BlackBerry Bold and BlackBerry Curve 8900 smartphones to its customers in India, said a press release.

BlackBerry smartphones and services provide customers with easy wireless access to e-mail, phone, calendar, Internet browsing and multimedia applications, as well as access to thousands of mobile business and lifestyle applications.

When we launched our GSM services, we had promised our subscribers that we would bring to them the best products and services. Living up to that brand promise, we are launching two powerful BlackBerry smartphones for our customers.”

He added that Indian telecom users would also have the option to connect any authorized BlackBerry smartphone available in the market and subscribe to a Tata DOCOMO data plan.

“The BlackBerry smartphones, together with Tata DOCOMO offerings, will appeal to a broad spectrum of retail and business customers who want an exceptional mobile experience with e-mail, messaging, social networking, mobile Internet, music and entertainment,” Gulati added.
