airtel and hutch gprs for using on ur pc is not the same as the 99 one...dats only for gprs for fone

its more expensive like 299 in hutch and 499 in airtel...or something like that

and the speeds r real useless...u get better speeds in dialup actually

no this wont work....if u read wat i rote above

this GPRS service only works with a phone, if u try and connect to a pc, it will connect but nothing loads at all

to use it with a pc, u need 2 get HUTCH ACCESS wich costs much more....around 299

and even that has 10p per 10kb

I hav been planning to buy a new mobile phone... Let me tell u what i want...

Should be rugged...
Video recordin to some extent
MP3 playback
Nice talktime i mean battery life
Crisper display with a very good camera...

Budget is around 11k... Will b appreciated if it's cheaper than that... MP3 playback is not a necessity...

I'll b buyin by this weekend guys...
