I ndia’s telecom market is more competitive than ever, and the rivalry between Airtel, Jio and BSNL still continues. After the Jio Giga Fibre launch, BSNL has introduced some price effective plans to attract users.

BSNL's new plan which they call as "most economic broadband plan" offers 20GB of data per day with maximum speed up to 20 mbps. The cost for a month subscription for this plan is just merely a sum of Rs 491 and along with these, the users will also be benefited with free and unlimited calling to any network .

The plan is very effective considering that, the plan offers more than 600GB of data each month and should attract subscribers that use the internet as their means of livelihood or for those who have an inclination towards streaming.

There is no revealing as such of the fact that what will happen to the speed after the consumption of 20GB data in a day, but surely it will fall back to much lower speed than what is provided in general.

This announcement by BSNL is a good preparatory move to tackle Jio's Giga Fibre plan which offers 1TB data with a speed of over 100 mpbs, costing around Rs 1500 per month.

Meanwhile, BSNL has also announced India’s first VoIP service as well as new prepaid plans for its landline connections.



We now wait to see what Airtel has in its pocket to reveal, to tackle Jio and BSNL.

W e have seen BlackBerry concept designs before, but this concept may take away our need for BBM emoticons, forever.

This Empathy pairs with a biometric ring to send the users emotional data to the crystal like device. The concept device was designed by Kiki Tang and Daniel Yoon for a RIM(Research In Motion) sponsored project at the Art Center College of Design. A BlackBerry-sponsored design competition has produced the Empathy, a concept device that lets you see your contacts' emotional state.

RIM is a serious company that makes serious smartphones. But a BlackBerry-sponsored design competition has produced a concept device that looks nuttier than squirrel droppings: the Blackberry Empathy. The Empathy is an angular phone that looks absolutely stunning -- and a tad bonkers. Its front is home to an OLED touchscreen that's transparent when not in use, and opaque at other times. It wouldn't be a proper BlackBerry without a physical keyboard, but the Empathy's is located on its back.

Touching the screen anywhere reveals a tabbed control wheel that lets you access your most commonly used features, like email, SMS, contacts, music and the camera. You pull a tab to access the desired feature.

In a nutty sci-fi twist, the phone connects to a bio-metric ring which is worn by the user. This ring collects emotional data, by examining the wearer's heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and skin secretions. This emotional data is made visible to your contacts, so they'll know whether they should leave you alone until you're feeling less fragile, or whether they can go right ahead and pop that balloon next to your ear. You can also see the emotional state of your contacts who are wearing a ring.

We don't think we'll be seeing the Empathy anytime soon, however, Mood rings seem like they're a long way from becoming reality, and you'd also need to know enough people who wear these rings to make this key feature of the Empathy worthwhile. As for the design, it looks smashing but it's not exactly pocket-friendly.
