Hi Shaan, Grateful for posting this topic. I just bought reliance prepaid GSM SIM card for my Iphone3G and have been playing around and searching topics online to get my data up and running. Here's my findings (relevant for iPhone): - forget about reliance world wap site. it'll never work on iPhone - rcomnet is the only thing that works for me so far (no username and password) required - reliance customer care is of no help. They also asked me to change my handset . They are still confused as to how I was able to access data without activating in rworld. - speed about 64-100 kbps I did a lot of playing around to understand the charges and here is the analysis on the same: - Cost of browsing is Rs 2 per Mb per session - Please make note of the per session part - Say for eg, you start browsing and browse about 100Kb of data. (The iPhone records the data usage in Usage so you can track the same). You are immediately charged Rs 2. Now say after 5 mins you start browsing again. Now you'll be charged again Rs 2 as its a new session now. They shall not start from the earlier session. - So say if you browse 9 different times and use 100Kb of data each time (total of 0.9Mb), you shall NOT charged Rs 2 in total but Rs 18 as each one is treated a new session. So guys..please keep this in mind while surfing...I didn't know about this earlier and my balance went down pretty fast . If anyone knows how to select some plan where charge is just on data and not on basis of per session it'll be great. cheers......
