New Delhi: Mobile radio listeners in India have a new channel for entertainment through visual radio. Four companies have announced its roll-out — Hutch, Radio Mirchi, Nokia and HP. Initially the service will be available in Delhi. Other metros will follow. Visual radio allows listeners to tune in to local FM radio on their Nokia devices even while receiving interactive information and graphics, synchronised with the radio broadcast through the cellular network onto the handset screen. Listeners can access content, participate in radio station promotions, participate in polls and contests, and interact with radio jockeys and special guests. Visual radio handsets are now available in the country with applications, and Hutch is the first mobile service provider to offer this, a spokesperson for the company said here. Nokia's visual radio handsets are available in a price range of Rs. 6,000 to Rs. 25,000. In the case of post-paid connections, there will be no rental for GPRS connections. Only usage charges, including downloading charges, will apply.
