reliance is 1X cdma network.

3G IS WCDMA, which has not yet come in India.

Whats that question dude :eek: .. Guessing .. Lets see what TRAI & DOT decides .. they are damm slow in their work. ohk.. BSNL, may be AirTel, Hutch, Reliance, all are eager to get it. But No one has able to provide the best quality 2 G & 2.5 G yet .. So don't expect wonders.. there are many areas where AirTel Hutch Reliance Network fails, n there are places where BSNL not works.. They should better provide the basic service first. High speed GPRS (EDGE) doesn't work properly in Delhi.. Don't know what happen to 3G... :lol:

Man Reliance and Tata offer CDMA service based on Qualacomm and WCDMA is going to be the evolution of GSM networks so they are not going to support it

Until Last week they have seeked the approval .. but its not granted as yet

Guz .... 3G has to come one day or the other

But the point is .. Price, Quality & Performance

They haven't provided us good service .. I have been using AirTel GPRS for long
and have been listening to their press reports that they Launched EDGE .. then extended it ..crap
It sucks .. theoretically .. It should have around 200kbps in EDGE .. but its not good, even bad as Dialup here.. If there are more connections .. then they need to setup more capacity .. but they arent doin that. more connection means they have more people .. means they have more profit ..So they are supposed to give more speed to us.
