Vigyaapan Technologies has recently launched the first ever iPhone application for Ishqiya, a Bollywood movie released last week or thereabouts. The application includes photos, videos, songs, and information about the cast and crew of the movie. The app will be available online and in the Apple Store.

Ankush Gupta, Founder & CEO, Vigyaapan, had this to say: “The application provides an experience that allows users to relive scenes from the movie. It will help market the movie to about 650,000 NRI iPhone users”.

The app reportedly supports integration with Twitter and Facebook (and I have no idea what that means). It offers quizzes and contests to test users’ knowledge on the movie. The application plays on the storyline, reveals facets of the movie, situations in the plot, and other interesting trivia. Fascinating stuff indeed.

Regardless of how tech-savvy you are, there are little chances that you ever heard of Emblaze Mobile. Still, the Israeli company is getting ready to make ridiculous all the previous attempts of building the perfect touchscreen mobile phone.
Emblaze is currently working on two handsets, one of them being named Emblaze Edelweiss, like that mountain flower.
Apparently, the Edelweiss comes with a 3.5 inch TFT touchscreen display that will feature a 480 x 854 pixels resolution. Yep, bigger than the resolutions of HTC Touch HD and Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, and far bigger than the 320 x 480 pixels resolution of Apple’s iPhone 3G. The new Emblaze Edelweiss looks nice, although there’s nothing revolutionary about its design.
