This initiative will enable customers to recover cost of their BlackBerry device in 15 months. This is something new we have seen from RIM, but seems like RIM is really active in emerging markets!

Tata DoCoMo monthly rental plan of Rs 599 offers 600 minutes of free local and national calling, free 600 local and national SMS and an unlimited BlackBerry Internet Services plan, Tata Teleservices’ Head for non-voice services Sunil Tandon told PTI.
