Arun 795 Report post Posted December 10, 2010 afaqs! Telecom Yatra New Delhi, December 10, 2010 There has been a lot of hoopla surrounding the launch of 3G services by private operators in India. While Tata Docomo has already launched 3G, other operators will soon follow suit and are currently promoting and advertising their third generation networks. Two operators, Reliance Communications and Airtel, have exhibited their 3G services at the ongoing India Telecom Summit 2010 and these include video calling and live mobile TV. Reliance mobile TV currently has around 60 channels of which 16 are news channels and 32 are regional. Airtel too put up an exhibition of its 3G services. The company's Mobile TV includes 110 channels at present and is growing. Mobile TV enables the transmission of on demand, recorded and live television content to a mobile phone. Mobile operators can either broadcast or stream content to users' handsets. While streaming, low bandwidth causes the mobile TV experience to be hindered if multiple handsets are accessing the same program at the same time. In a normal scenario there are several players who work in the mobile TV business, such as content and broadcast companies, mobile service providers, infrastructure providers, handset manufacturers and technology providers. All these companies work together to enable TV on mobile phones. Neither Airtel nor RCom divulged when they'll launch 3G services. It seems we'll just have to wait and watch.

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted December 10, 2010 Reliance 3G offfers a whopping speed of 5.7 mbps on an iPad. Is this speed at your place (Meerut), Dhiraj ji? If yes, your decision to stick to RCDMA (post MNP) is a prudent one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

inception 75 Report post Posted December 11, 2010 Reliance 3G offfers a whopping speed of 5.7 mbps on an iPad. Is this speed at your place (Meerut), Dhiraj ji? If yes, your decision to stick to RCDMA (post MNP) is a prudent one. Reliance 3G is on GSM ! :-o Reliance CDMA is dying, post MNP more and more CDMA users will move to GSM. CDMA is dying unless pvt CDMA players reduce their data tariffs. MTS is gaining new customers due to their 1-yr 1p/2sec local call rate @ Rs 95! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saiesh 12 Report post Posted December 11, 2010 inception, they will realize that fact and will reduce the data tariff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
@mitJ@in 256 Report post Posted December 11, 2010 (edited) On Monday, 3G will be launched Commercially 99% else, on Tuesday. Not confirmed.... And one more thing:- Video Call wont be launched initially, Video Call shall be launched after 1 month and Secondly Mobile TV is completely free for 3 months (Please mind, No Data Usage Charges will be even charged for Tv) And this time Mobile TV Application is complied by Apalya and the APN is pre configured, so the charged for Viewing TV shall be taken in one go, For E.g. Rs.100 for one channel for one month, Now no Data Usage Charges and all. Just keep watching without KB/MB/GB Tension.
