Vodafone Essar has announced the launch of its first solar powered phone VF 247 in India. The handset would be made available by next month and expected price is Rs 1500.

The phone is aimed at the rural market that prefers low-end handsets. Another factor taken into consideration are power cuts which are frequent in rural India.

When the phone is exposed to sunlight, it charges itself. The set can also be charged in a room under normal daylight with special support of hardware and software.

The phone would have features like FM radio, colour screen and a powerful torch light.

It offers eight days of standby time and four hours of talk time.

Currently, Vodafone has 65 % of rural network coverage which is second highest in India.

I am quite pleased to note that WordPress has grabbed first rank in and awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards.

This is first time the WordPress has won this award and I would say it was quite deserved.

In addition to winning in the Overall Best Open Source CMS category, WordPress was named first runner-up in the Best Open Source PHP CMS category.

Bravo!

A big congratulation to all those involved with WordPress in one or other way.

Microsoft Office 2010 is under process. Microsoft is offering a beta version that yu can download.

As suggested by Microsoft, you should run it on a secondary computer as it is a beta version only.

I did not use MS Office 2007 as I did not much like it. Let us see how is 2010.
