We just signed a major distribution deal with Spice Mobiles, leader in innovative handsets in India.

From December on most new Java and Windows Mobile handsets will be rolled out to the Indian market via Spice Mobiles’ approximately 25,000 retail outlets with the full Nimbuzz communication portfolio installed.

With “Innovation” as the company’s mantra, Spice began revolutionizing the Communication & Entertainment sector, with its new age technologically and state of the art mobile phones. Spice Mobiles is the proud winner of the Golden Peacock Award for innovative product / service for the year 2007.

We are looking forward to welcoming all Spice Mobiles handset owners to Join Mobile Freedom!

Looking around at the Le Web Goodie bag contents on coworkers’ desks, makes me want to share with Nimbuzz fans, how everything went.

Le Web held a startup competition of 30 companies from Europe, and a few from the US, across a wide range of sectors and Nimbuzz was nominated to be part of it. Unfortunately we did not win, but we met a lot of inspiring people there.

Winner of the event was Viewdle, which won the “Gold”, followed by Webnode (Silver) and Zoover (Bronze). Silentale was winner of the “People’s Choice” award.

What we’ve learned is that we should have brought an extra sweater and our own internet , but there were also many great discussions. One of them in particular about the differences between European and US startups. Check out the video and make up your own mind. Comments are welcome.

Congratulations to all participants and winners, it was a pleasure.

Now you can stay connected even when your screen is off. (Nice.)

On top of that Nimbuzz now speaks to more people. We have added language support for Deutsch, Espanol, Francais, Italiano, Nederlands, Polski, Portugues, Turkce, Russian, and simplified/traditional Chinese!

And in case you did not know: Nimbuzz also works in landscape-mode chat!

And in case you really didn’t know: you can also chat upside down, so if you are about to fall of a tree but your right foot is holding on, you can still call for help
