Nokia Maps came under fire for showing Kashmir as part of Pakistan. The largest mobile handset manufacturer in the world that controls around half mobile handset market in the country was attacked for showing the disputed Kashmir region as Pakistani territory.

Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) activists torched a large Nokia showroom in central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.

In Jabalpur, a large number of BJP activists assembled in the city and burnt down the mobile handset shop.

BJP activists not only torched the shop but also destroyed a large number of hoardings in major areas of the city and other towns in the state. The activists urged authorities to take action against Nokia for indulging in “anti-national” activities. The protesters also clarified that they would intensify their protests should the authorities not take up the matter and if a case was not registered.

The Nokia showroom owner later accused the BJP activists of deliberately attacking the shop and said that he had nothing to do with the new application developed by the company “This software is developed by Nokia. This is the problem of Nokia and we’re not concerned with it as we’re simply shop owners, not the client of the company. But, the manner in which the mob entered and started torching the shop is bad,” said Rafiq Khan, the Nokia showroom owner.

Qualcomm: Telecommunication Research & Developmnt Company

Qualcomm, a wireless telecommunications research and Development Company based in San Diego, is going to launch small laptop named as “Kayak” in India priced at Rs.10, 000 in the second half of 2009.

Kanwalinder Singh, Qualcomm Senior Vice-President and India head said:

We will introduce Kayak Internet access platform in second half of next year and this device leverages 3G chipsets as well. The main USP is it can compute in low power scenario like India. It’ll cost you about 10, 000 Rs.

In Kayak, prototype Qualcomm has designed a device capable of bringing the Internet over Mobile Phone data networks to areas that may lack wired Internet service from cable and telephone providers.

Kayak is a reference design for building low-cost wireless-computing devices designed to fill the niche that exists between desktop PCs, which require landlines or separate accessories for connectivity and Internet-capable wireless devices.

Kayak uses Qualcomm’s dual-core mobile station modem chipsets to provide both computing and connectivity, he said.

He added, “We see developing markets like India seeking connectivity as inevitable & believe that concepts such as Kayak that leverage 3G wireless will be a key to success in helping these areas join the global online community.”

I hope Mr. Singh, it’ll be….

Samsung 8 Megapixel Pixon: New Mobile Phone

That Samsung’s Pixon (new samsung’s cellphone) has an 8 megapixel sensor hardly reassures: the problems of lag and general aggravation associated with cellphone cameras can’t be resolved by adding resolution.

On the other hand, the reviews are good, suggesting that it at least takes great shots, even if it is just another touchscreen handset in other respects.

Already available unlocked as a gray import, it’s likely to be subsidized in the U.S. by AT&T, according to Cellphone Signal:

Today, FCC gave is the information about a new version of ths Samsung Pixon coming to USA market. This is the Samsung M8800L. This specific version of the Samsung Pixon wil come now with 1900 and 850 3.5G, only compatible with AT&T bands.

The Pixon has GPS and geo-tagging, but no Wi-Fi. If only HSDPA were widespread enough to make that a reasonable proposition.
