The phone named Picasso, after the famous painter,
is based on Android 2.3 and will have a 3.5 inch screen and 5 megapixel
camera.
Airtyme, which had earlier launched low cost
3G
phones like Flaunt and Torrid, has unveiled its first Android phone in
the country. The new phone, called AirTyme Picasso DG50, is a dual
SIM phone with Android 2.3 operating system.
"Like its artist namesake, we built the Picasso to cater to the
genius and the creative spark in all of us," said Gaurav Narang,
AirTyme's director of operations in a press release. "Today's consumers
want a phone that is both feature-rich and easy to use. They can't help
but be delighted when they open the box and see its fine finish and
beautiful lines. When they power it on, they'll be dazzled by its
beautiful 3.5" (8.89 cms) capacitive touch screen and artistic motifs.
And when they explore its features, we hope they will see why we chose
the slogan 'Ingenuity Meets Passion' to build the pan-India marketing
campaign for this new, unique product," Narang added.
A rare Skype bug is currently plaguing some users of the popular voice over IP software. A handful of Skype users reported
that messages were not always reaching the contact they were addressed
to, but instead landed in the message log of another of their contacts.
Judging from the reports, it looks as if messages get automatically
resend to another contact without landing in the inbox of the Skype user
they were addressed to. 
Google Nexus which is delayed to be launched in India in the month of september, is available now online at Indiatimes store and also ebay.
