Now read newspaper pages on cellphones

-
INDIA: In a first of its kind service, cellphone users will be able to read their morning newspaper on their mobile phones. The services called M paper would be launched nationwide in December.
Every morning the reader would receive the paper of his or her choice in the form of an MMS. Unlike the news alert in the M paper the reader would be able to get the whole news report, with pictures on mobile phone. The electronic paper will have different sections and the reader will be able to scan it without any time delay.

Cellnext Solutions that has introduced M Paper has carried out its soft launch with Idea Cellular. Currently the paper is sent to some one thousand customers of Idea to get customer’s feedback. “The feedback is very encouraging,” says Mr Ajay Vaish navi, COO, Cellnext Solutions.

Cellnext is talking with major dailies to launch their newspapers on cellphones.

A subscriber of the M paper will have to pay only Rs 50 per month for the service. M paper will contain 25 new items but the type of news to be sent would depend upon the publisher. The whole operation will have two parts: content management and the other a delivery platform.

“Content management would be with the publisher and the delivery platform would be looked after by us,” says Mr Vaishnavi.

Though initially the M paper would be in English the company has plans to start it in vernacular languages also. “Our long term goal will be to penetrate in the rural areas also, mobile is no longer only an urban phenomenon,” adds Mr Vaishnavi. The company hopes that it will be able to start the paper in one month’s time.

Too many pro wrestlers dying young ATLANTA (AP) -- Everything is planned. The high-flying moves. The outlandish story lines. The crackpot characters. One thing isn't in the script: the staggering number of pro wrestlers who die young. Chris Benoit was the latest, taking his own life at age 40 after killing his wife and son in a grisly case that might be the blackest eye yet for the pseudo-sport already ridiculed as nothing more than comic books come to life, a cult-like outlet for testosterone-raging' young males to cheer on their freakishly bulked-up heroes. But the tenacious, grim-faced grappler known as the "Canadian Crippler" was hardly alone in heading to an early grave. The very same weekend Benoit killed his family, the body of old tag-team partner Biff Wellington (real name: Shayne Bower) was found in his bed, dead at 42. A couple of weeks ago, former women's champion "Sensational" Sherri Martel passed away at her mother's home in Alabama. Sh

The superintendent of police of Bhubaneswar, Mr Amitabh Thakur, said some members of the outfit had assembled outside the airport to “highlight the issue that no player from Orissa has been selected for the national team.” One of them turned violent. The Indian team flew into Bhubaneswar on Monday afternoon ahead of the second ODI against the West Indies, to be played at Cuttack on January 24. As the players and support staff came out to catch the team bus, a fanatic forced himself through the secu rity barricade and “stumbled on” Chappell. Orissa Cricket Association council member Kamalanath Pande, who was an eyewitness, said the attacker was seen “trying to take a knock at Chappell.” But the latter “showed quick reflexes, and ducked.” The police came to Chappell’s rescue almost immediately, and the attacker was caught and taken into custo
