Micromax's Superfone A50 Ninja enters India with AISHA voice assistant, forgets its shuriken

[![Micromax's A50 Superfone Ninja enters India with AISHA voice assistant, forgets its shuriken][1] ][2]

Hoping to compete with the [Siris of the world][3], Micromax has announced its new Superfone A50 Ninja alongside a novel feature dubbed AISHA -- which is short for Artificial Intelligence Speech Handset Assistant. Similar to Cupertino's personal secretary, AISHA vows to help folks with every-day elements such as making calls, setting up calendar events and even reporting what the weather looks like. Much to our disappointment, however, the A50 Ninja runs a not-so-new flavor of Android -- [Gingerbread][4] to be exact -- and Micromax left out any mention of [Android 4.0][5]. On the specs front, the dual-SIM Superfone sports a 3.1-inch display (mum's the word on the resolution), a two-megapixel shooter, Bluetooth 2.0 capabilities and an unspecified 650MHz processor. All in all, thanks to its 4,999 rupees (around $95) budget price, we can't imagine you'd complain too much. Be sure to hit up the Micromax link below if you're interested in grabbing one of these.
