rakashj 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 pls clear my doubt. I live in a rural area, but still in my town,reliance web world is there. Here we do not have any broadband services available.so i decided to go for RIM which provides internet connectivity. But there in web world, I wanted them to show the demo of internet connection through a cdma mobile.but they are not doing it.they do not have data cables to show the demo it seems!! so i'm in a confusion whether, in my area i could surf the internet from my handset(which i will get within sometime) or i can use for making only voice calls? plus one more thing i need to know, i can reach the city where i can get mobile from good dealers, and can get the prepaid there itself, but i want to know whether i can use the same, for surfing from my place(where i stay) which is 40kms from the city.Actually i mean to ask, whether the service(internet connectivity) is available by default, as we have webworld in my area, or only voice calls are provided by default? the agent in my town should acquire internet service separately from Relaince? pls clarify these. thanks in advance.

Puneet 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 All Reliance handsets are pre-activated for data services (read R-Connect). And a phone purchased from anywhere is India will work for voice as well as R-Connect wherever signal from Reliance is available. You can go ahead and purchase the handset from the nearby city, and use it for r-connect purposes in your town. Presence of a web-world is not needed for any kind of connectivity, only thing that you require is the Reliance Signal Get a phone and enjoi !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chirag 5 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Before u find the prices for the phones, i really suggest u search for the fone on this forum and find out its connectivity issues for R-Connect. 2112 is supposedly in the blue for R-Connect dialer installation on the desktop PC. Jus research that, its more important. And yeah, not all phones are R-Connect enabled. So please check up wid the dealer if the phone can be used for R-Connect as well. A better place to find this would be http://www.relianceinfo.com where under every handset, they've mentioned whether R-Connect or R-World is available on the phone.

Chirag 5 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Search for one of the topics in R-Connect Forum which has the same issue which u mentioned now. There members have also discussed abt the best plans which they could go for. Maybe for R-Connect even a FWP or I-Phone wud be a better option. Just check all that up. Its widely discussed on our forums, earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Know that the original Samsung phone (N191, I believe) is considered the best for R-Connect as it seems to give the best throughput. You should be able to find more info in other threads. Unfortunately, I dont think new handsets are available now, so you'll have to settle for a 2nd hand...

Utsav 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Samsung SCH N191 offers the best among equals but as the set is not available any more. LG 2130 http://www.relianceinfo.com/Infocomm/Rim/h...s_lgrd2130.html will be the best option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chirag 5 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 I had arranged for New Samsung N191 for someone sometime back, in Mumbai. They were priced at 2400-2450. If someone is looking, let me know, i'll try and find out. I'm not going to get into shipping it to any other city. If u r from Mumbai, then i'll get into it.
