Lava B5 1st Phone with Rupee Symbol in Keypad

Lava B5 is the first Indian mobile phone with rupee symbol in its keypad. Lava Mobile announced Lava B5 mobile phone in India. This handset came to the Indian market with innovative new feature called Alpha keypad. The company states that it is a matter of pride for India to be the fifth nation having a currency symbol of its own. 


The company introduced this keypad, which offers keys arranged in ABCD order, on the basis that still majority of India is not familiar to computers, hence less comfortable with the QWERTY keypads.

Mr. S.N Rai, Co Founder and Director, Lava Mobile said, "We took this as challenge to ensure that Indians can type "rupee" symbol long before than the anticipated time. Around the occasion of Independence day announcing the incorporation of "rupee" symbol in the mobile keypad will be a tribute from Lava family to the entire nation. The currency symbol on the keypad of their mobiles will make millions of Indian proud. We are happy to be the catalysts of spreading this spirit".
