These 3G services will be available on Nokia 3120Classic, Nokia 5320, Nokia N79, Nokia N81, Nokia E71 and the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. Here is the news story from Economic Times India. You can check out BSNL 3G plans to see what suits your needs the best. There was also a rumor that BSNL would come out with its 3G services on iPhone 3G, which did miserably in the India market. "BSNL, India's third largest mobile company in terms of subscribers, has tied up with Finnish cellphone major Nokia for bundling 3G handsets along with its services. A senior BSNL official told PTI that the PSU has tied up with Nokia to supply handsets for its 3G subscribers. Nokia India Head, Operator Channels, V Ramnath said "Nokia India has partnered BSNL in bringing to Indian consumers 3G services on a host of Nokia devices." Nokia 3120Classic, Nokia 5320, Nokia N79, Nokia N81 , Nokia E71 and the Nokia 5800Xpress Music will be offering BSNL 3G services. Owners of these devices will be able to avail of talktime as well as data packages across various price plans, he said. "We are also in discussions with BSNL to offer its subscribers a combination of free as well as paid for applications in order to further enhance consumer experience, Ramnath said. Chalking out an aggressive strategy to garner more 3G mobile subscribers, BSNL has also tied up with consulting arm of Swedish telecom equipment vendor Ericsson as part of its 'Go To Market' strategy. It will perform network improvement and optimisation services for the core, radio and transmission networks installed by its parent Ericsson," a senior official of the PSU had told media. BSNL is not positioning 3G service for the mass market, he said. The official, who did not wish to be named, said the PSU has reported 8,000-10,000 subscribers since its launch few months ago. However, industry sources disputed this figure saying the company may have garnered not more than 2,000 customers over 24 cities. Private players are yet to start the 3G service as they would get the required spectrum through auction, which is yet to take place. Till they launch the service, BSNL is trying to leverage its first mover advantage. BSNL launched 3G mobile services in February. The 3G services enables video streaming applications such as Live TV, movie downloads, high speed data download on mobile phones. Callers can also see each other on their mobile phone screens."
