Blackberry now on Tata Indicom too

After a long wait, Tata Teleservices Ltd launched the premium BlackBerry mobile services that offers customers email, SMS messaging and internet-based applications.Tatas were denied permission to launch services by the government amidst security concerns, although other leading cellular operators cuch as Bharti Airtel Ltd, Vodafone-Essar Co.and Reliance Communications Ltd have been offering these services for more than a year now.
It was only after telecom secretary Siddartha Behura said recently that no permission was required from the government to launch the services, Tatas firmed up plans to roll out the service. The company has launched the CDMA-based BlackBerry services that also offers international roaming on GSM/GPRS networks.
Airtel and Vodafone are ready to launch the Blackberry Bold soon.
