The Windows Phone team has published some exciting news for both China and India. With India finally getting some handsets being made available this month (opens in new tab) (the HTC Radar (opens in new tab), Samsung Omnia W (opens in new tab) and Acer Allegro), owners of these devices will be able to purchase and download apps from the Marketplace.
