Mozilla to enter Indian mobile market with Rs. 1,500 Firefox smartphones!

Mozilla, the well-known developer of the famous web browser 'Mozilla Firefox' is ready to launch its new range of smartphones in India. Mozilla has tied up with Intex and Spice to bring smartphones in India at a throw away price of just $25 (Approx 1,500 INR).

Mozilla had earlier showcased their smartphone prototype at the Mobile World Congress (#MWC) in Barcelona in February 2014. Mozilla will launch these smartphones under their own Operating System (OS) namely the Firefox Operating System.

“Mozilla is dedicated to putting the power of the web in people’s hands, and Firefox OS frees consumers, developers, mobile providers and manufacturers from the limitations and restrictions of proprietary platforms,” Li Gong (Mozilla Chief Operating Officer) said in a statement.

Inter-Circle Mobile Number Portability for India soon!

Good news for all the Indian telecom users who are fed up of their existing operator. As you all may know, Mobile Number Portability (MNP) was started in India on January 2011 and it recently crossed the 100 million mark according to a statement released by TRAI ​(Telecom Regulatory Authority of India). 


The Telecom Commission of India has recently agreed on Inter-Circle Mobile Number Portability (MNP). Though, it'll take some time due to official reasons but it will be a great relief for those who have changed their telecom circle but do not wish to change their Mobile Number as it may cause utter inconvenience to them.

"We shall ask the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) for further recommendations on these issues. Based on the Trai response, a final decision will be taken. It would then go to the Cabinet for approval," said a member of the Telecom Commission.
