I think they want to keep 9 as the startingt digit for mobiles. I have come across mobile numbers starting with 8. I think by the time they are done with 8 (and maybe) 7 the country will be well nigh blanketed.
But then, our Govt. agencies are never bothered about the consumers in any case?

Given the divergence between @mukeshlst and @sougatadc it could be the ambient temperature or the local signal strength which determines what you get. Thus on may say that we are at the threshold, and then it depends.

When can we expect its CDMA cousin? Any ideas.

It is not a bad idea to keep changing your passwords, however, when you look in the context of millions of google mail users the numbers leaked are very small.
This is for our safty how can we knew our password leaked or not.
If you login then you will normally get the time of the last login. Also, if nothing has happened so far, then most probably you are safe.

A small bit of info - OT
Nokia 6275 gets hot and resets after about 25 minutes esp. on a conference call.
So I am told

Why only Airtel. Given a whiff of a chance they will all rip you off!!!!

The linked payment etc. site is a pain in the .... Very erratic and unfriendly. Also, full of mistakes. If your 'lost password' question is date of birth it asks for dob in mm/dd/yyyy format but works on dd/mm/yyyy! Had a very tough time switching and had to get CS involved three times.

Is it a correct assumption that a Blackberry flashed with the Reliance BIOS will be functionally indistinguishable from an identical unit bought from Reliance.

Excellent news. I would have loved Google to pick up the (unfortunately) now defunct Lindows project (Windows with Linux underpinnings) and take it to the logical conclusion. Then the Open Source would automatically have beeen integrated with Linux.

Doctor sahab, I couldnt understand this - "The firms seem to guarding EVDO pricing and service rates like mama bear. "
Very simple. If you want any info on EVDO from Tata all you get is a form, with a we will get in touch with you. That never happens. In one cae I got an ack saying w3e will revert to you.. still waiting. try the Reliance site and you get into an almost endless loop. No real information about tariff, module charges, locations, etc. As for BSNL it is not called 'Bhai Saheb Nahin Lagega' for nothing. The site may not have been updated for half a century (oops year).
Is it not like mama bear guarding the honey!
In any case BSNL will be my last choice. I have a fixed line broadband and it often conks out from 18:00 to 22:00. I still have no information on where to complain. The ultimate arbiter of BSNL (the lineman) thinks that half a dozen twisted joints on the cable are normal. I managed to install a small junction box on my wall, but they insist on not using the Krone connection, and twist the wires together. I am waiting for Airtel to come to my area and it will be adieu Bharat sarkar.

What are the options and damages. Also, how is the service? I understand the choice is between BSNL, Reliance & Tata or are there more present or imminent in the market.

I am sure our Guru's will have 'cracked' it in at most a week. Also, it may not be a bad idea to wait for the universal charger connector show its face.

Nahi.... why does this always happen to me... I am only around a 3 month old customer for the evdo... ill have to fire the cc executiives here...
Best of Luck. You are dealing with Bharat Sarkar here!

I am not that informed about the security issues - real or imagined. I am quite chuffed up about the recent arbitrary, abrupt, and high handed behaviour of the govt. in many matters.

Locked handsets have a place where they are heavily discounted as part of a plan over a pre-agreed time. In India where almost nobody buys then they are monopolistic and a form of usury!

Finally managed.
Used old login and then lost password and gave bate of birth in dd/mm/yyyy even though it asks for mm/dd/yyyy
worked
Cud not create new password with mixed upper & lowe case. Managed with symbols + lowercase

Their strategy is still evolving. Today I saw ad for 1p/sec, 50p/min and Re1/3min as all available.
I guess these games will continue till number portability stabilises.
Take your pick!

Do not see the resend PIN button. Just called *222. The chap has escalated the issue, and promised action.
Wait and see is all I can do. I have some personalised support number. Should I try that?

Got an sms yesterday with a complaint number. Promise that there will be action within 24 hours. Wait and see!

i would like to say that my overall experience with myservices site is good. though it could have been more user friendly and also good interface.
i had little problem of adding my cell phone. i found that since i was registered for old website, my account was created by default in new website. i called up CC and told them the problem. i got sms within a day, though informed that it will take 2-3 days about my old account details. i logged in with old account uid and pwd and registered number from there. again register number in new id.
at times i face problem with sending PIN to the number. but then its reliance, it cant be perfect. you have to accept that. its like govt co, where there is everything still something will be always missing.
It is exactly as you state. I have managed to create the account and password with the help of *222 who created it for me. Only even though the preferred communication channel is sms I got both on an e-mail instead.
I tried to register the phone but have had no luck till now in getting the PIN - over 20 hours later. I have tried again this morning. Let us see or else I will contact *222 again.
-
I discovered that I had two ids. asking id by sms still got me the old id. Just called *222. The lady created a new id online and sent me the id and password by e-mail (she had said sms but then ...) . I have since tried registering the mobile number and am waiting for the PIN. Let us see.

There is no improvement. have e-mailed webservices!

might be there is problem with some addon running on your system which might be creating the problem. thats why you are not able to see the bills on the IE8. i am using IE8 and it's working for me.
now for the bill. there is a possibility. 1st is that in the new plan they are not charging one month advance rental. so they would have adjusted it against the adavnace rental paid by you for the previous plan.
you can register for ebill through the customer care. and recieve all your bills on your mail. that will be the better option. and in order to pay the bill just use the VISABILLPAY many a times they do provide discount for the bill payment
Thanks for the prompt response. Now I understand the reduced bill. As for Visa Bill Pay I use MC and not VISA. My bank gives me 5% cash back on telephone bills paid through the my MC Card.
I have virtually nothing running under IE8 - I use it exclusively for the baulky sites to pay my bills. It may be that the bill info is offline at the moment. I will consider the registration option but still need the payment portal for both credit card payments, and the e-receipt. Also, last month I had paid through this portal only. Had no problems whatsoever.
Some of the problems came since I probably forgot my new password, and it was not happy with the dob info. Maybe I had an error there.
Now I can log in see my profile, but cannot pay bills. Looks like the section for the bill payments is off-line. I will try after lunch and then see.

Last month I was able to go and pay my bills. I had changed my id and password as required. This month I have problems logging, would not accept the date of birth either. Then I went in a re-registered. Got the password by sms pronto. Then I am lost. I can login and see my profile.
Now I could not see the bills page or a link tot hat. Then I tried to register account for Mobile. No in showed up on my mobile (preferred communication channel),
Now when I log in I am sent into a blank page.
Earlier, I had switched to Simple399 from Delight399. I have got an sms recently that my bill is Rs,192? How come when both plans are 399!
Please advise on both points. I had switched to IE8 (both inside FF as well as independently) to get that far.
PS: When I tried to register for mobile and then it gives a message 'no more services to register' for confirmation. I may add I had used this very portal without any fuss last month to pay my bills.
I am either getting a blank page with some fancy borders or the above? I do not understand that why fix something which is not broken in the first place. If you do then debug it properly.

To me it looks like a case of a bad contact. He essentially ensured that the contact became good. mark the word AGAIN in his post there.
