Recently got a chance to transact at a Retail Pharmacy Store in Hyderabad - India using Mobile POS Dongle.
The technology is enabled by M Swipe Technology - http://www.mswipetech.com/Index.htm

Was surprised to see the MPOS in action in India so soon.. was actually thinking this might take some time.. but this is in action since last 2 months.
Few Interesting Observation:
Company provides the bundled Mobile Devices + Card Swipe Dongle to the Merchants (there are some monthly charges -not sure on the details).
The application works smooth on the Nokia Device and provide the transaction receipt on the selected Mobile No.
Still not able to understand the problem this MPOS tries to solve in India:
1. We do have the so called traditional Card Swipe machines available ..then what problem statement MPOS device tries to solve.
2. Didn't see the Chip card support on the dongle.
