    It's miss-spelt (I think they thought it looked 'cool') as vodafone.

    The name came about from two companies that came together - Vodata and Vodacom or something... So the 'vo' part is 'voice' and the 'da' part came from 'data'...

    What does Voda translate to in Banglai?

    What is Banglai ?:confused:

    As for the fuss over Airtel, it is indeed one of Vodafone's competitors in India. But its official website is www.airtel.in and not airtel.com
