TATA claims the phone has nickel battery. I hope they're refering to NiMH AA/AAA batteries. If so, then its a great news. :clap: I never heard of NiMH in mobile gadgets and hope this would be a starter........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sougatadc 358 Report post Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) Yes, they say that it has 'Nikkel' batteries. If it is NiMH battery, then it will be a great news. But an organisation like TATA should be careful about their official website. Besides the spelling (Nikkel), they also has written spelling of Kolkata as 'Kolkatta'. Also at the page tataindicom.com/myaccount.aspx, in new user sign-up portion, for corporate and small-medium enterprise customers, they have advised to download the form and contact the 'Tatat' Indicom customer care centres. Absolute negligence this, if considered as an official website of an organisation which is now 57th largest brand in the world with valuation of $11.4 billion.

commonman 228 Report post Posted April 28, 2008 I don't know name of the manufacturer. The Site gives links for downloading LG drivers for Vista. So must be a LG phone. If its a rejigged version of LSi 110 with new batteries, then it could be a good option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
