I would suggest to go for an Android device. It is by far the bestest OS Available in your budget. There are many people here selling HTC Hero at awesomest prices. Go for it. You shall not regret it..

Hope Mr. Sibal does something for the betterment of the consumers in the wireless broadband space...

Tatas are by far the best corporates in India.. Pioneers and also the best...

Does this backup everything? Messages, calls list, apps, contacts, etc?? Also, DK, could you answer this question with the MyBackup Pro that you are using?

Everyone looking to get a 3G Mobile Hotspot device, stay on and look for my thread which I shall be posting today in the Buy/Sell Forum I am sure you guys will benefit...

Amitabh bhai.. I need to get one of these.. SHall I buy it according to your suggestions in post #23, or is thee something new or am I missing anything else?? I hope you read this post and reply... In these many many months that the topic has been closed, I am sure, many new new things might have popped up.. So I would request all readers to post their finds/information about e-ciggs..

Thats really news for me buddy.. I wasnt aware of this... +1 for you...

LOLzzzz... kanha milk man's dance is awesome... in one of the scenes, why are the 'br***ts' being focussed?? no proper 'efficiency'... lolz...

^^^ Update... I was using DCM 3G, and I had a balance of Rs. 156 in my Account. I browsed a few websites, and did some speedtests, and within 10 minutes, zooom.. My Balance is now 0.01 Rupees. I dont know how it was being charged and so called up CC. As usual CC is the dumbest A$$est people in the world.. But one thing I got to know from my yesterday's conversation with the ugly salesgirl at the DCM outlet yesterday when I bought the new sim. She said, 'Sir, only if you get a message from DCM saying that you can use 100mb for free, only then you are entitled to use". And me like one dumb a$$ did not take her talks seriously, and started using the data unanimously.. Danda jab pichwade mein lagta hain, tabhi seekh milti hain.. Lolz.. Anyway, after that I recharged my phone from their website, and it was recharged immediately. I recharged from my online Bank Account (not credit/debit card). They have many many Banks in their portfolio. Easy as 1-2-3...

OK Guys, I have finally DCM sim in my hand, and I tested its speed and browsing on my (actually my fiancees') newest 3GS.. I tried the apn as tata.docomo.internet Disclaimer: I am not a GSM customer, but out of curiosity I have bought this connection and tested it. Also, I am writing this as a comparision between GSM 3G i.e. DCM 3g and BSNL 3g. Browsing : It was awesome with DCM inside and is pretty fast. I can also say that it is pretty fast when I use it over wifi from my ****ty BSNL Wireline BB. The BSNL 3G browsing was fast, but was taking a lot of time to latch onto the 3G network, and sometimes it would go on to EDGE. Downloads : I did not download anything, but yes downloaded a few apps from the app store. ANGRY BIRDS LITE. This app download in DCM was much faster than in the BSNL. Speetest.net : DCM faired more then 2000kbps downlink and around 200-400 kbps uplink. This was repeated for atleast 5 times from one single place inside my home, and only once it showed downlink as less than 500kbps. The PING was always around the 300ms mark. BSNL was never 1500kbps downlink and 300kbps uplink. This was again carried out from the same place in my home. My Assuptions: BSNL 3G is in Rajkot for more than a month, and DCM only from 3-4 days. Maybe BSNL had a lot of traffic on their network, and so the speed might have been less. BUT nevertheless, BSNL has 3G signal latching problems, and BIG problems. I also tried out the DCM connection from various places inside my home, and I was always getting 4 out of 5 bars on my signal indicator. Everyone in my house uses IDEA, and they get signal issues/drop calls, etc. So now I have one contender for IDEA connection in my home after MNP. I will also vouch for other connections when they launch 3G in Rajkot, before striking GOLD. One notworthing feature I would like to inform you friends. The voice clarity I felt was much much better in the DCM 3G SIM on the 3GS than my Incredible with RCDMA. I wonder why. Is it because it is iPhone with a 3G connection, or is it because DCM has excellent voice clarity on its network by default? Anyway, ill now go on to enjoy my 100mb free data on my DCM SIM... So long..

^^^ indeed a good news.. now that we have 2 people managing the 'future' MNP scenario, I feel it would be smooth..

WOW.... +1 for your efforts bhai.. People really needed this..

Meerut and Rajkot people have confirmed about this?? and me and DK are left behind?? Aisa kaise ho sakta hain... Well ho sakta hain.. cause we both are CDMA fans.. lolz... But seriously, I plan to buy a prepaid DCM today... Hunting for docs now...

^^^ The idea is great, but did anyone else try this out other than Vikas? If yes, do you also have a reception increase?? Do post results for others to follow...

According to me, in the long run, EVDO or the CDMA technology, for that matter will be utilized mainly for data and people will be using GSM for the voice needs and little bit of data for phone apps...

^^ Stay tuned buddy...

^^ Thanks a lot Abhishek, your help is really appreciable.. I am planning to buy some routers, which I feel might be able to sell it some fellow rimwebians, and help them make their house/office wifi..

Twinkle khanna ho ya Aishwarya Rai, unless the user knows how to play around with Android, its of no use.. I feel this phone is for the Techo-Savvy, Techno-Freak ladies out there.. Its a nice design, but history has it that flipouts dont generally make it to the 4th or 5th month of it started to be sold...

Its a good move by MDA... He will want to wait and see the scenario of 3g in india for the next 18 months, and till then they will have have all the time in the world to test both LTE and WiMax for India. With MNP in place, I am sure, people will be ready to shift to MDA owned voice services, which he plans to start... Kudos to the Original Big B...

to MTS... MNP ke baad and once MTS launching here in Rajkot, Im going for it..

^^^ Chowdhury sahab, enjoy the connection at such a steeply discounted price.. 1mbps ka to hum sapna bhi nahi dekh sakte yaha Rajkot mein on BSNL EVDO..

Angry Birds sounds are awesome.. Notifications I have kept "Star Collect".. Nice one.. ringtone has to be the Title Theme.. +1 DK..

@Abhishek, Thanks for letting me know that you have this router. Now I want to know if you are currently using bsnl 3g (which I presume is the GSM version of BSNL and not the BSNL EVDO), can you check if any CDMA modems work in this and give you connectivity?? CDMA Modems are issued by BSNL under EVDO, and also by Reliance under trade name Reliance Broadband+, and Tata under trade name Tata Photon+. If you have any of these connections kindly check and if you dont have, my request is to see if any of your friend's are using it, to borrow for a few mins/hours, and test accordingly. This way, even you shall know that the router is for both GSM and also CDMA compatible..
