Hello everyone,
I am trying to figure out which Indic languages are supported on different mobile operating systems. I have created a table to map support for Indic languages on different mobile OS, I would appreciate if you would populate the table so we can have a clearer understanding on scripting for Indian languages.
You can find the link on the strategy wiki. Here is the link: http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile/Forecasts/India
Thanks Mani
Hello Mani,
You have left out Symbian 9.1 (S60 3rd edition phones) in the table. While they do not natively support Indic languages, there's a slightly roundabout way to read most Indic scripts and other complex scripts. In my Nokia N72, for instance, I've enabled "support for complex script rendering". Opera Mini renders Indic texts as images (jpg/bmp?). This way, I'm able to read Tamil text.
Also, contrary to popular thinking, it is the lower end phones that have better Indic language support. Nokia 5130 (S40 v5) is one such phone with good Tamil support. Ravishankar Ayyakkannu (User:Ravidreams) of Tamil Wikipedia has reviewed this at http://blog.ravidreams.net/2009/09/%E0%AE%A4%E0%AE%AE%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%B4%E0%A... (in Tamil). Copying him so that he can add more info.

Here's another S40 phone recommended by a friend in Sri Lanka. http://mynokia2730.blogspot.com/2010/04/nokia-2730-supports-tamil-and-sinhal...
This costs just Rs.4,200 (100 USD) and has 3G support.
