vikas_sonu 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2007 Hi friends , This is the complete picture for this new product.. Product Highlights * Direct USB connector - no need for adaptor or cable * Slim, sleek and stylish - similar to a thumb drive in size and looks * Plug n Play - No need to install drivers - just connect and surf using the Windows dialer * Retractable antenna - better signal strength in low RF areas. Advantages over Tata Plug n Surf USB modem * Support for Voice * Retractable antenna * Much Better coverage * Backed by support in over 300 towns 1. Background * Current devices are PCMCIA-Data cards (for laptops only) & USB-wireless modem (usable with both desktops & Laptops) with data, voice & SMS facilities. * Current USB modem EC325 is quite large in size, has a miniUSB connector, thereby needing a adaptor or cable to connect to the USB port of the laptop/desktop. * Reliance communications has now launched the new MG880 USB Modem (usable with both desktops & Laptops) with data, voice & SMS facility. It is a conveniently slim & stylish solution for internet access on the move. * MG880 USB modem offers o Direct USB connector for convenient plug into the laptop USB port o Retractable Antenna which enhances signal strength in low RF conditions o Plug n Play drivers – the modem does not require any installation of drivers and can be directly plugged into any XP PC and used without installation of drivers. However, the Windows dialup modem configuration needs to be done (dailling no # 777, username, password). We have tested this feature on Windows XP, test results for other versions will be conveyed to you. * Competition – Competition comes from TATA Indicom who a have similar range of products and have also recently introduced the new Plug n Surf, a wireless USB Modem (only data & SMS / no voice) which is quite stylish, slim and has a direct USB connector. It is quite popular in the market because of its convenience and slim looks. * Tata USB does not have a retractable antenna and voice capability. 2. Current Situation * With this product, we should be able to expand the market to cover new segments like youth and laptops with PCI Express slots who found current USB to be inconvenient. * Currently, share of USB is 65% of total data card sales, which is likely to grow to 70% with the launch of this product. 3. Target Market * SME/SOHO * Professionals * Traders/Entrepreneurs * Corporate Executives in individual capacity. * Students * Those who have owned a laptop or desktop & those who are planning to own a laptop/desktop 4 Features & specifications * Nationwide network coverage * Reliable connectivity with Speed of up to 153.6 Kbps. * Data, Voice and SMS capabilities. * Enhanced download & surfing speed with he cutting edge CDMA 1X technology * Easy to install and use * High -Speed Wireless Data Access for Laptop or Tablet PC Specifications * Windows : 98,2000.ME,XP,Vista 32 bit * PC Slot : USB 1.0 or 2.0 * Memory : 64 MB * Disk Space: 30 MB. * Disk Drive : CD ROM No change from the current pricing of EC325 USB modem.

Honest 836 Report post Posted September 28, 2007 My dear friends, if this USB DATA CARD doesn't have the Data Based usage plans than it is useless for heavy users. As we all knows that we get Data Based Plan only in PCMCIA Data Cards in which we are bill according to our Data Downloads and not on per minute basis. In USB DATA CARDS their is no Data Based Plans. Although many retailers are misguiding you by telling you that all Data Cards have the same plans, that means you will get Data Based Plans in USB data cards also, which is totally false. So my dear friends, don't get into the trap of dealers. First call to customer care, confirm and then only go a head. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
