Re: Rel Mobile

my advice is that you go in for the PCMCIA card rather than the mobile. the main reasons
1. the disadvantage of the mobile - will disconnect atleast twice or thrice within a minute. so you end up with paying twice or the thrice the money. wont u get irritated when your connection drops thrice a minute.
2. the access to net faster with the card compared to the mobile

the card costs some 15k. but it will be an 1 time investement and certainly better compared to your option of mobile

i dont think that a mobile will be a bad idea.
man i use mobile internet from reliance.....
and i m 24x7 online....
how can u say it dissconnects every 2-3 min.
have u ever used it...or jut saying like that.that may happen only in software corruption or firewall disabled in windows xp.
the pcmcia card wont let u call...but a mobile can...
and also a mobile will cost u around 3000.
there is no sence in buying a pcmia card....
and regarding a good mobile handset...every handset offer same speed.so get one which u consider best for u.
my advise is go for a second hand samsung n191
u can get a cheap data cable for rs 100 only.
or get a lg rd2030.
if u need a unlimited plan go for 1500 permmonth
but is available on post paid only.
