Obviously Mukesh can't start the same business before 5 years but his WIFE could. Or their's any clause in the agreement that Mukesh's family members too can't start the same business ?

@ashf My dear friend, you can try LG Dynamite Series GSM handsets. They are quite reasonably priced.

Considering the best DVD Burners, Sony and Samsung are really good. But LG also is anytime better. You can try LG DVD Burner.

^^^ You are lucky enough my dear Amit. Otherwise their are many users who don't get even 10% network at their place. ^^^ Well they are the master in changing Clauses my dear Dhiraj. No one can beat Reliance when it comes to Tactics.

These plans doesn't look to be so much beneficial for heavy users my dear friends.

^^^ Their's a problem for sure with Demonoid. See, again I didn't get any activation mail from Demonoid.

Info on 2 New SE Handsets Surfaces Sony Ericsson is on a roll with new phones making the scene quite regularly. Info on a few more handsets has surfaced including a new camera phone and gaming handset. The names given to these handsets as of now are – S302 that is going to be part of Sony Ericsson’s new Snapshot series, and the F305 that’s been designed keeping the mobile gamer in mind. The S302 Quad-band handset comes equipped with a 2MP camera and an LED flash as well as Sony’s PhotoFix feature. It supports Bluetooth with an A2DP profile and M2 cards for external memory. It has an integrated FM and supports EDGE and GPRS. The second handset – the F305 slider - comes with an accelerometer to auto rotate the 2-inch TFT display (176 x 220 pixel resolution), a 2MP camera, Bluetooth (with A2DP), built-in Stereo speakers, FM radio, M2 card support and special gaming keys. It will also have pre-installed games, but then again there are only a handful of handsets worldwide that don't come with pre-installed games. But according to the same reports that have information on these particular handsets, these games will use the accelerometer to enhance game play with a Bowling game that would require the user to swing the phone itself. The Sony Ericsson F305 should be available in the third quarter of 2008 and the S302 is set to be available in the fourth quarter in Thunder Grey and Crystal Blue colors. There’s no pricing attached yet, so stay tuned. Courtesy : Tech2

Mobile number portability in metros likely by mid 09 30 Jul, 2008, 0034 hrs IST, ET Bureau NEW DELHI: Here is good news for all mobile users in the country. The government has finalised the finer details, including the road map, for introduction of mobile number portability (MNP) that will give cellphone users the freedom to choose their service provider while retaining their numbers. ET has learnt that telecom minister A Raja is slated to announce the timeline and the methodology for the implementation of MNP within the next few days. Highly placed sources in the department of telecom (DoT) said the announcement may come as early as Friday. Market surveys have shown that between 25-50% of mobile users in India are unhappy with their operator, and are willing to switch to another service provider if allowed to retain their number. Sources said Mr Raja is likely to announce a time frame of ‘the summer of 2009’ for implementation of MNP in the metros and category A telecom circles such as Tamil Nadu and Maharastra. According to sources, the road map will involve several steps — first, the DoT will issue a request for proposal (RFP) for selecting two or even four centralised operators who will administer and implement MNP. It is learnt that five players — four US-based companies and a state-owned Indian entity are in the fray to become centralised operators. The players are Telcordia, NeuStar, Syniverse and IBC, and CDoT, sources said. They also added the centralised operator will be selected through a bidding process, and added successful bidders would have to invest up to Rs 100 crore to set up clearing houses to allow MNP to take place. The process will be as follows — successful bidders will become Mobile Number Portability Clearing House Administrator (MCHAs) and they will set up the Number Portability Database (NPDB), which will have the mobile numbers of all cellular users. All service providers will then be asked to link their networks that of the MCHAs and NPDB. In November 2007, Mr Raja had announced the decision to introduce MNP, while adding that modalities would be spelt out later after due consultations with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India. The modalities have now been finalised. In April 2008, Trai had sent its recommendations to the DoT on this issue and proposed that for the ‘MNP implementation in India, the neutral third party should own and operate MNP clearing house and the centralised data base’. “The company will not have substantial equity (over 10 per cent stake) directly or indirectly in any of the telecom service provider in India. Similarly, any telecom service provider will not have substantial equity, directly or indirectly in the company,” Trai added. The regulator also said that the cost for setting up and running of the MCHA would be borne by the successful bidder while adding that the costs can be recovered by charging a port transaction fee from service providers. The introduction of MNP will result in a significant churn in the telecom market and is likely to impact well-entrenched bigger players the most. The move will benefit the new entrants such as Datacom and Unitech. Besides, CDMA majors such as Tata Teleservices and Reliance Communications, who are launching GSM services, also stand to benefit. While telcos say that MNP may have no impact as their subscriber base as the number of exits will be balanced by the addition of new users, the introduction of this facility may hit their bottom lines as operators will be forced to increase the costs of retaining one’s subscribers.

^^^ Oh thanks for correcting me, my dear Asit. It was the EVDO data card which was used by kshah.

The situation in Mumbai and Delhi is also worst due to unavailability of Petrol and Diesel. Keep cycling my dear Sitansu, it is good for health.

Vodafone and Airtel are the worst congested networks.
