Airtel brings Palm Treo 750 to IndiaUntil now, to get a Treo in India you would have to pay the full price of the device and buy it unlocked. Guess Airtel, India's largest mobile phone and fixed network operator, figured that out, hence along with Palm, they've announced the availability of the Treo 750 smartphone in the world's fastest growing mobile phone market.

The struggling Treo maker could certainly benefit from the huge Indian market. While their Treo 750 is kind of an old news in the western world, I think it could actually sell well in India. On the other hand, I'm sure the local businesses can benefit from all the Treo features…

      I doubt if it will sell well. Most people in India prefer symbian over WinMo!
      Treo's been here for ages and still sales'r are pretty low.

      Too late. Palm never delivered in India, when it mattered. Now HTC is ruling the smartphone segment in India. Nokia E-Series also emerging as a clear winner there.

      Palm Treo 750 is a business smartphone with comes with amazing look and rich style is sure to attract the youth as well as business people in India.I am sure Palm is going to make its presence felt in India.The phone is priced at 27k,a bit too high for the middle class people,but its elegant look,style and performance is sure to steal the heart of the high class people.

      Hey I spent a considerable amount of time in India, and I can basically guarantee that this phone will not do well. I mean you are competing in the Indian phone market, PALM, time to wake up.

      It is the largest growing cellphone market, but by no means is it small. Everyone from the local begger, to shop keeper, to industrialist has a phone, and not just any phone. My nocker (servant) in India had a Nokia 8800 2 years ago. I don't know if he would give that up, even today, for a 750, which is old school compared to the N90 and HTC phones. Good luck Palm, thanks for contributing to the recession we are in but don't realize it.
