Hutch has changed colors since it started operations in India.
I remember seeing Hutch first in the Orange. They then changed to pink and blue.
Now after Vodafone has taken over Hutch , will Hutch move to Red synonymous with India’s other largest telecom provider Airtel.
It would be interesting to see what Vodafone does with Hutch.
The battle’s finally over ? Atleast IBN Live says so.
The long battle amongst the Telecom biggies for the aquisition of Hutch India might be over.
Vodafone has won the bid for $19 Billion.Essar is happy about the deal and the price. Vodafone is said to have even offered Essar to become a partner firm.
Hutch is expected to announce an official statement tomorrow

When India is still not ready to implement 3G Telephony, reports suggest that China has launched a 4G standard in Shanghai which might be the first fourth generation mobile network in the world. This network as developed as a part of the FuTURE project costing about 19.3 Million USD
3G is not available in mainland China even today and the country is expected to issue 3G licences later this year.
Should India dump 3G and go straight for 4G ?
Some questions remain unanswered.
