News about Windows Phone 8.1 and GDR3 updates

Today (Aug 23rd), There are few rumors in internet saying Nokia India team is working on Windows Phone 8.0 GDR3. Recently we got GDR2 and Nokia own update and I posted here (Nokia Lumia 920 got new Windows Phone 8 Update Today). In this GDR3 updated we can expect Notification center. Currently there is no Notification center, so we are missing few notifications for the apps. Even few apps as live tiles with notifications count it is better to have one area where we can see all notifications (from facebook, twitter, skype… etc). So, even if we did not pin the app to start screen also we will know that we have something inside.
