Remoba Inc Chief Guru Thalapaneni Betting Big On India For His Wireless Email Applications

Rediff.com:Guru Thalapaneni, the Indian-born, US-based president and CEO of Remoba Inc, is in India to market his indigenously developed products — Remomail, iPhonebackup, iDatebook and iPhonebook in India’s fast growing mobile market. “This is the right time for a product like my Remomail which has global applications and can work on both GSM and CDMA platforms,” he says.
Remomail is poised for simultaneous launch in the Indian and the US markets and a couple of months later in South America, while the other three products from the Remo stable are already being hosted by the Tata Teleservices network. iPhonebackup, iDatebook and iPhonebook were launched in November 2005 and have met with an encouraging response. “We are also in negotiations with a few other service providers,” informed Thalapaneni.
Remomail is an e-mail on the go, and provides direct connection to one’s personal and business e-mail accounts via mobile. The service is likely to be priced at Re 1 per day or Rs 30 a month. Thalapaneni is aiming for a customer base of one million in the first year of its launch and five million customers worldwide in the same period.
