    Loss.. 233Cr.,. I think most of it is because of the FINES that Reliance keeps giving out. Last fine to BSNL was 150cr.

    According to me Reliance's 233cr is not all that bad. We have to look at the speed in which they are growing, RIM's Oversears operations, Its OFC network, its FLAG aquisition, Coverage in Thousands of towns and hundereds of Cities, over 10m subscribers. Just 2 Years of Operations.

    It is not a Paan Tapri to make profits from day 1. I think they are doing fine.

    Our only request will be to reliance would be to do less jhol so they get less FINES from the govt. or atleast this time when you do a jhol please dont get caught.

    Regards,

    Now the Blind will have to PAY for the light they dont see.

    REL launches power bills in Braille

    March 10, 2005

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Mumbai: Reliance Energy Ltd today launched power bills in Braille for its visually impaired customers and announced a project to promote Braille literacy among the blind in the city.

    "The introduction of power bills in Braille is a significant step in the utility marketing. The visually impaired will be able to easily read critical information on the bill such as power consumption, details of charges," company executive director Satish Sheth said at the launch here.

    Maharashtra Energy Minister Dilip Walse-Patil and actor Amitabh Bachchan, who essayed the role of a teacher of a visually impaired girl in his recent film `Black', were present at the function along with Tina Ambani, wife of REL chairman Anil Ambani.

    The company also launched `Prarambh,' a project specially designed to promote Braille literacy among the visually challenged citizens along with he National Association for Blind.

    Only 4,000 of the total 35,000 visually impaired people in the city were Braille literate, Sheth added.

    - TDSAT said its Contractual and go not license issue so go to the court.

    - Court/BSNL said Disputes to go to TDSAT.

    TABLE TENNIS ??????

    TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2005

    Telecom dispute appellate tribunal TDSAT has reserved judgement on Reliance's appeal challenging the penalty of Rs 150 crore imposed by the government for illegal routing of international calls as local ones.

    Arguments concluded on Tuesday with Reliance counsel Harish Salve contesting the government's reply that the company violated licence agreements, saying, "This is not a licensing issue. This is a contractual dispute between Reliance Infocomm and BSNL and the government should not have interfered."

    FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2005

    At the outset of the hearing, BSNL’s counsel CS Sundaram contended that the court did not have jurisdiction to decide on the dispute and the appropriate forum for it was Telecom Dispute Settlement and Appellate Tribunal. Senior advocate Harish Salve, appearing for Infocomm, said that BSNL’s plea was an abuse of law as it has been filing such applications repeatedly at different fora.

    DoT has asked all unified access service operators (GSM and CDMA) to cross-check the addresses of all existing subscribers and submit an action taken report to the government.

    As per the directive, telecom companies must ensure that subscribers’ documents are verified before they are issued the handsets/GSKs.

    THIS IS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU ARE A POST-PAID OR PRE-PAID USER.

    I dont know when this starts.

    RIM has started having tie-ups with Cable operators in different parts of Mumbai for a Service which will provide Wired lines into Subscribers homes which will allow them to make STD calls at 20% lower costs than an STD Booth. This will be on prepaid basis and a RCV of Rs. 1000 would be available.

    This will be exactly like how Cable Operators Sell Broadband Internet service.. now they will sell National Long Distance.

    These will be Wired lines entering Subscriber's homes. (But the trick is that it will be Wireless from Building onwards.. so the wire would be from your terrace to your home actually)

    Finally after months of delay, Reliance commited that they will launch their Prepaid Local PCO Service by End of April this year.

    Till now they had launched the Prepaid PCO which was only for STD Booths and not Local Call / Coin Boxes.

    No Clarification on tarrifs have been given but unofficially it looks like 40% Margin for Coinbox Owners. and There would be a RCV of Rs. 1000/- .

    There is a small loophole in the reliance prepaid supply chain that I was able to check on today. I wanted to buy the Slim handset for a friend today and went to various places for checking out the prices.

    All Dealers and POS had almost the same rates BUT there is something called as a Prepaid distributor who is allocated One for every Area (True for Metro/Large Cities). This Distributor sells to all Dealers and POS at a speacial price called "DEALER PRICE" which is nearly Rs. 300 less than the "Customer Price" and decently below the "MRP".

    All you need to do is locate this distributor nearest to you and buy from his shop. the distributors even give you 1 handset or 1 Refill. I bought a GSK which is worth Rs. 220 outside at Rs. 100.

    The distributor does not care if you are a POS, Shop, Direct Customer or anyone. They are selling retail also.

    I will try posting names and areas of the Distributors.

    See cloning is already so much of a problem and they are talking about cloning humans. STOP IT NOW. Soon you will see that ---

    HYDERABAD: A gang involved in cloning of humans with XYZ Cloning technology were nabbed by the police here on Thursday.

    In all, eight persons including two main accused Shaik Mujeeb Quershi (30), a hospital owner and Mohd Faiz (30), cloning technician were arrested.

    Their modus operandi was to get a DNA Sample of a person from doctors in the market and clone old useful, intelligent people by deleting the existing memories and replacing it with the new SLAVERY details obtained by various means from the customers, who visit their doctors for treatment purpose.

    Another arrested, Faiz cloned about 100 people for being Slaves and then exported to middle east and also some far east countries and supercheap labours.

    Yes Mobility has been taken away from PCOs. BTS Locked and gives not more than half a km of radius. But this is far more serious problem than BTS. BTS is long gone and was a precautionary measure for not paying a few hundred crores to DoT/Trai/BSNL/Somebody.,

    This is a different problem. This time its not RIMs Mistake its their distributor and customers. Some say there is a huge misuse of RIM PCOs for some illegal purposes. DoT, Vigilance & Crime Branch (Police) is nabbing customers who misuse PCOs very agressively.

    This is damn serious and RIM PCO department actually suspended almost 7000 Lines all over India. out of which around 3000 were in Hyderabad and more than 2000 in chennai, bombay nearly 200.

    RIM has lost all investment on these 7000 FWTs and all suspected misuse is being raided by police. moreover in these raids if there is a Misused FWT found, then it goes to the police and not RIM.

    All connections are very closely monitored for illicit activity and somehow the locations of these FWTs are being raided.

    It seems there is a huge problem between RIM and DoT on their Prepaid PCO business.

    Reliance has stopped selling to existing BSNL Customers and also there has been huge number of lines been suspended like 3000 in Hyderabad.

    They say its some misuse of PCO by people that has suddenly bought DoT, Vigilance and Crime Branch under one roof for scrutiny of RIM Connections.

    From 1st Feb onwards every FWT sold will have an Address Verification (Like Postpaid) and will also be continuesly monitered.

    Yes. for reliance its not just good enough that you hear about it.. all the ugly things actually happen.. but why ME...

    Yes.. I am a victim of the mobility undo process of reliance. My PCO line is now down. I am loosing daily customers and other MTNL users laugh on me. :-(

    To know if you are also part of their Smooth Transition you will hear odd messages like "This facility is not available" or "Contact Reliance Customer Care" or like my case a simple Engage tone.

    I hope mera baap koi sapna nahi dekhta.

    To Add to the above :

    Reliance has locked the BTS (Base Transceiver Station) where the phones are (at the time of restriction) and for new connections where they activate the FWPs using *228..

    using *228 in a differect BTS wont help and it will continue not to provide the service.

    Why the whole issue ? Why is FWP not part of the Mobility ?

    Well i think mainly because FWPs are NOT mobiles. They are considered merely landlines but avoiding the hassel of Wires. In the TRAI's classification FWP is considered as Landline and not Mobile. So telcos pay different ADC than mobiles. you will notice FWPs are slightly cheaper than mobiles i.e. because ADC is lower on FWP.

    If FWPs are allowed mobility then TRAI will classify FWPs as mobiles and Telcos will need to pay more ADC to BSNL and the tarrifs will need to be revised.

    I think this is not a permanent issue because 1st Feb the ADCs are going to be Cut down drastically as announced by TRAI. So we will definetly see some changes then. Maybe we will have FWP-Mobile and FWP-Stationary kinda schemes.

    One Question:

    If they lock the BTS.. whats the range/limit of the BTS ? how far can we really go ?

    Looks like there have been recent changes in the movability of FWP FWT of Reliance. After the Advertisement issue (Tata Walky) - Reliance overnight has taken a step where its FWP/FWT will be stationed at the place where it either made the last call (when this restriction was activated) or at the time when we activate the phone i.e. *228.

    they say that the FWP/FWT will not work outside the Fixed area or premises.

    HOW TRUE IS THIS ? HOW DO THEY FIX OUR LOCATION ? Whats happening ?

    Is it enough that MCI:

    Committed accounting fraud approaching $10 billion?

    Caused the loss of $3 billion in pension funds?

    Caused investor losses exceeding $176 billion?

    Caused the loss of investor confidence in the free market system?

    Caused the lay-offs of tens of thousands of hard-working innocent people industry wide?

    Caused the misery of hundreds of thousands of families struggling to make ends meet?

    Is MCI the same company which was called WorldCom sometime ago and commited the world's biggest telecom fraud ?

    If yes, the Reliance got a perfect match.

    Mahidhar Does make a point.

    we really dont have the required system to track down these people

    According to my suggestion above I said that your Carrier/Telco has to provide you with this service. If you can tell them what time you got the call - even if Caller ID or other features are disabled then still they can know which telco the call actually came from.

    In dont think its much of a issue for Carriers to Detect which Interconnection the call came from. This is incase you inform them on time - I assume telcos erase their CDRs every 24hours. On knowing which Carrier originated the call, the complaint will go forward to that telco. And Because a Telco billed Mr. XYZ to call your number it obviously knows who made the Call from their CDRs/RADIUS/Accounting System.

    Because your Telco will make money from Fining the guy who called you and PLUS from you everymonth as a service charge ("NO TELEMARKETERS") then Its very much in their interest to hunt and fine the guys.

    Most of the WAV to MIDI programs wont work perfectly. They cant. Because thats the way MIDI files are written. MIDI are more like Notes for Standard Instruments to be played while WAV is combined waveform of the amplitude & frequency.

    WAV is like Complied EXE and MIDI is like Source Code.

    I dont think you will ever get a decent WAV to MIDI conversion unless the WAV was made from a MIDI directly.
