SO dies it mean that all the BWA spectrum winners have to make an upfront payment of Rs. 1651 crores and get their non UASL license converted to UASL????? Is it so simple??????????

VoIP is banned in India only for the non-UASL license holders(UASL -- telecom operators having license to provide cellular telephony). Our cellular operators have not provided VoIP for to protect their income from celluar operations. Infotel might have got only ISP Category A license but they've right to convert it to UASL by paying the difference. Once done...there's no issue in providing VoIP.

I am a little confused about this latest technology coming to the forefront. I understand that as of now Voice over IP for local calls is banned. If the BWA spectrum is used by the winners in the auction to move towards LTE technology, and assuming that voice over IP for local calls is legalised, then will I be able to use the same handset I am using today (the mobile) or do I have to buy a new instrument? Also, does the LTE technology offer mobility, maybe something like national roaming etc?
