Wireless company Qualcomm has appointed Kanwalinder Singh as the president for its operations in India.

Besides heading Qualcomm's Indian division, Singh will also oversee the firm's operations in SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation countries), a region which consists of countries like Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Singh, a 20-year veteran in the telecommunications industry, takes over from V.P. Chandran, who left the company "to spend more time with family and pursue his other technical and professional interests", the company said in a statement.

Prior to his appointment, Singh was the chief technical officer of networking giant Lucent Technologies in India.

The reaction to a report issued Tuesday by Flurry Analytics managed to completely overlook some interesting news--the Android-based Motorola Droid outsold the original iPhone over the same period of time following their respective launches--to focus instead on the sales numbers for the Nexus One.
