Hey, Bitlander's I was think What topic i should chose for my second Blog And then i thought to right a blog on technology. My luck there is a current & hot topic : Pepsi's Smartphone. I Don't Think Pepsi needs any Introduction Because all of you know that Pepsi is one of the World's Biggest Company Which produces Carbonated Soft Drinks. Pepsi is created and developed in 1893 and introduced as "Brad's Drink" it was renamed as "Pepsi-Cola" on 28 August 1898 Then to "Pepsi" in 1961. Now i Should come to the topic Pepsi's Smartphone . I think, by now, everyone might have heard about the Pepsi smartphone and passed it on as another social media generated rumour Well, I did the same but now, there’s news. The Pepsi Smartphone dream can actually became a reality as it recently became a fundraiser project on JD Finance, a Asian-based Kick starter-like service.

So far the project has raised $89,000, which is still a far cry from their $470,000 goal (3 million Yuan). The deadline for the fundraiser is December 3rd, so there’s no guarantee that this project will make it off the ground.The first 1000 supporters who pledged $78 (499 Yuan) will receive a P1 device for their support, which was a screaming deal that is sadly no longer available However, those donating even just 1 Yuan have a chance of getting a device, as these supporters will go into a lottery in which 1 of every 500 will win a P1. Supporter's pledging the full price of the device $203 (1299 Yuan) will also receive a P1 & there are no limits on this donation tier.

If Pepsi (or rather, PepsiCo China) is working on its first Smartphone. It can be assumed that the handset will most likely be manufactured by a different company (possibly from China), and re branded by Pepsi. Evidently, PepsiCo is primarily a soft drink maker and has nothing to do with smartphone, gadgets, hardware's etc. etc. and moreover the company does not own any facilities for assembling smartphones too, and so far we haven’t heard of any recent purchases to Indicate Pepsi’s intentions to manufacture its own handsets either.

These Pepsi Phones won’t be made by Pepsi. Rather the company is licensing its branding for use on this product in addition to a forth coming line of accessories and apparel.
