mTouche Technology has set up a joint venture company-mBit Infotech in India to launch peer-to-peer (P2P) mobile content platform for major Indian telecommunication service providers. This new entity, which has been established with technology firm VASSoft.net will be a strategic vehicle to launch the mBit network with the Indian service providers. The new entity plans to reach out to 500 million mobile users in India at a fee of Rs3 per day for the platform that allows them to share content files such as photos, video & music using mobile phones.
