Talked to one of the CC guys at WW in Cochin. He said GSM will be available in all other towns on 25th Jan. They have no other information except what we all know by now. :D

CDMA launch only had connectivity with other networks problem, but here RCOM GSM seems to have network availability problem itself. The former can be condoned, but the latter problem cannot be condoned. What was the urgency to launch the services if they were not ready in the 1st place? They only seem to have succeeded in making great fools of themselves.

There are a lot of people to whom service matters the most, and not the lack of it. If one wants to be ADA's guinea pigs, all the best to them. Good that they have not yet introduced in major cities because they know for sure that their WW/WWEs would be destroyed!!!

IMHO, we RIMwebians are the only species to have abundant patience with RCOM. So many around us just run away from the word 'Reliance' itself. Thank God it is not yet launched in Chennai (just checked on this and confirmed with CC). Let the RoI experiment, hope we will be the last to taste RCOM GSM- maybe the full version!!!! Not the trial edition or the limited version!!!!

few days back i spoke to the local technical person, and he said the towers are under the control of reliance head office technical person and still its not handed over to local technical person..the work is not 100% completed, so we can expect a better service than now.. anyway i am very much happy with current service available here..

OK, so today I got the GSM sim delivered to my house (by a friend working in webworld); Paid 25/- ONLY; Number in Meerut starts with 9027 series; Using it in my very old Nokia 6610 GSM Phone (so cannot try edge etc... but it does have gprs, I think)

FIRST IMPRESSIONS -

Fantastic Network till now.... Full Towers coming in my house; Balance showing as 10/- (1.50/- main balance and 8.50/- Local Call Balance) so that means that 10/- daily balance has to be for Local (donno why I got yhe 1.50/- main balance, maybe first time in sim activation)

Made STD Calls to Airtel Delhi - went through in first try... Also Local Calls are going through first try - No Congestion seen till date...

But right now, I dont know what to do with this sim card...

I am from delhi. I use idea, Mtnl vodafone and reliance. every company has some unique selling point. i dont use air tel because of a personal bias against this company. but i am also aware of the fact that its THE MOST EXPENSIVE operator here. i am waiting for gsm launch of reliance. i am ready to be a guinea pig for it.

Just heard from my friend who is based on Dombivili Mumbai that the CEP sim costs 125/- over there. This is the price quoted by local dealers, not WW.

Coverage is Superb in my area and Never faced Congetion problem except calling *333 never worked.

Prepaid Billing is Okay.

For GPRS you have to wait for your CAF to loaded in System.

Unground Coverage is Bad Bad Bad even on same building the Tower is Located i could not get Coverage Beneath Soil.???
