compenn 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 anybody & everybody who is thinking of changing handsets think 100 times before doing that. Because u still have a chance to QUIT reliance n shift to GSM which definitely is the better service, network,billing,without ownership issues,best handsets etc etc. think before u leap.

raccoon 53 Report post Posted November 22, 2004 (edited) Lemme add: NO yahoo integration, bad highway coverage, no SMS thru web, handsets, network & tariffs very SMS unfriendly, incoming SMSes beyond 140/160 characters will go into oblivion, handsets have poor battery life, rotten ringtones, very inflexible policies, latest features like Bluetooth, etc, not availabe in any handset, etc, etc...

Is that all you got for Reliance, FREE sms Boy, you are paying an enormous rent of 440Bucks and paying thru teeth for calls . Why stick to DAPO when calling is free on prepaid. DAPO customers are always overbilled, if you dont believe, look at the amount of adjustments you have received, and also the no. of times you have gone to WW acting as a fool or worse calling the stupid CC. Stick to reliance if you dont want high end handset and are ready to use prepaid. Do not upgrade your handsets unless you are a sentimental fool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ganesh 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 NO EEPROM, you are wrong on your assessment for DAPO.there is no other scheme in india which gives 40P/Min for STD.I make use of this maximum and even special messages to NDTV,AAJTAK etc are free under DAPO;whereas GSM users can only DREAM of it.SMS free in GSM is subject to "*Conditions Apply" whereas for DAPO its FREE.And Local landline calls are 1rs/Min. SO DAPO still Rocks. and Mind u even though reliance provides "LOW END"handsets, they are the only cheap (i mean damn cheap) handsets with 144Kbps DataSpeed.GSM USers are hooked still to GPRS which max gives 40Kbps in theory.My friend uses GPRS in his nokia 6100i,from airtel and gets hardly 20Kbps(2KBps).Only reliance started Mobile revolution in india by free incoming calls unconditionally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mkr 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 Very True Chirag, We shouldn't 4get the past history of GSM players. its only RIM who had make cell in INDIA an item for common users otherwise, it was still a lucsury. Why we should 4get that GSM's past high charges and worst services Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beetle 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Agreed..! Dapo is good for SMS. But, there are ways to get Free SMS on GSM, forget national.. International..!! That too for a petty MMS rent. Now, this makes DAPO customers burn a bit. Point two, NDTV, AAJTAK etc. are a temporary fad. Point 3, SMS is cumbersome. NO EEPROM, you are wrong on your assessment for DAPO.there is no other scheme in india which gives 40P/Min for STD.I make use of this maximum and even special messages to NDTV,AAJTAK etc are free under DAPO;whereas GSM users can only DREAM of it.SMS free in GSM is subject to "*Conditions Apply" whereas for DAPO its FREE.And Local landline calls are 1rs/Min.

Beetle 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Coming to main point. This is what I thought about LG 6000, when i saw it a few minutes ago.. Nothing compared to LG 6000. 256K color, 3.3mega pixel camera. Brew Rworld with instant MMS. Spare battery, 250hours standby...!! and 3hours talk time. Beat that..!! Almost as good as Nokia 1100, and this one is from Reliance. Yes, it has a different battery than the other LG series. Group sms... Group mms. 30 downloadable ringtones. Can store 30 MMS on the phone, you dont need R world every time..!! Draw back.. its got a data cable of its own.. not the one for other color series. Worth it...!!! Mr. Mod, this phone deserves an topic of its own...!!! I was excited when DAPO started too, but in no time I realised the flaws and what I was missing. 6130 is definetely better than 6000. Reason 1. Instant MMS button. Can store 4 MMS on phone, rest on server. That is a first for RIM. 2. Its 30% cheaper. ADVISE: Do not go for either. Both ****..!! They **** BIG TIME. Quit RIM, go GSM.

lokeshsapre 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2004 Chill guys! I would be glad if we had some comparison between 6130 n 6000 stop arguing over petty things of RIM!! 19901[/snapback] LG RD 6000 262000 colour TFT display Built-in high-resolution camera: 640x480 image resolution (approximate 310K pixels) Brew 2.0 platform for R World Native MMS Large Phone Book with 500 entries 76 melodies - 32 Poly ringtones In-built answering machine LG RD 6130 Built-in high-resolution (VGA) camera with integrated Flash (approximate 300K pixels) and Multishot Bright 65000 Color STN display Native MMS Emergency Flash light Speaker Phone High speed data capability Java platform for R World Supports Hindi Menus and Hindi SMS On the face of it, 6000 is the one that I would put my money on. Some of it's features are similar to 7230 and being a owner of 7230, I know what they mean. For instance..the picture quality and screen display area...they are much better than 6130.The 6000 has 262K color TFT display.... it's counter part falls short on that. The in-built answering machine is a good feature when you are driving or are busy and cannot take a call. You can even record ur msg for others b4 they leave a msg (at least the 7230 has this function) 76 melodies -36 poly is another good feature for those who like to show off The 6130...the features that caught my attention were: integrated flash, speaker phone and emergency flash light. The phone looks huge and bulky. Atleast I felt so when I saw it in person. In a nutshell... if those of u who dont give much care for picture quality..but just want a ph that takes pictures..then go for 6130- its cheaper also. But for ppl like me... who are more interested in detailing...then 6000 makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lokeshsapre 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2004 continuing my point further..if those of you who are not so interested in the picture quality of the phone but just want a camera enabled phone..then I think Nokia 3205 is also a good option. Check its features out: Integrated VGA Camera with self timer and photo caller id 4096 color display User customizable template covers plus Template Cutter Infrared Connectivity Integrated FM Radio Speaker Phone Built in flashlight 16 Poly ringing tones (MIDI) Download MIDI ringtones User-changeable Xpress-on Front and Battery Templates High speed data support The features that I have marked bold... it makes it a viable option.
