R-World is not good for instant Chat. Its not like GPRS in GSM

There is no more facility available in TATA Indicom also. As new phone like 6255 and 6235 also launched, it may be possible, u can use instance messaging in Them. If there Wap browser is not blocked by TATA as Reliance.

The WAP facility provide by both companies is same. Only difference is that reliance provide it through R World' R Surf option (Browser under Browser) and Tata provide through Wap Browser. I used it on LG AD 5000 and Kyocera 440.

The price of using WAP service is free in TATA till now and you have to pay 3 rs per day u use, or 25 Rs. per month in Reliance. Because R Surf is come under Membership plan in R World. Please also share which handsets of reliance or TATA u r planning to purchase, as far as Rim concerned many phone doesn't support R Surf. Specially NOKIA phones.

Keep posting for more at RIMWEB.

Thanks and Take Care!

I have been connected to Yahoo Messanger using SMS for a while now, though not a part of RWorld you can send and recieve messages from Yahoo Messanger by SMS ... in relicance too. I hope u know this ..

+++ SMS is available on All handsets and this way instant messaging is available on all handsets.... I recieve 2-3 messages from Messgenger for free and then i have to reply once {this is charged@2Rs } to recieve more messages ...

GPRS is best for always on to multiple IM(yahoo,man,aol,icq) networks. and it is cost effective too at just 100 per month. (idea/airtel/bsnl)

you can send and recive unlimited messages.

Hello People,

@CoffeeBee First of all, Yahoo on Wap was available since ages. Search the Technical/Programming Forum.

@RajanPert, You are wrong Sir. Read the Link page carefully. It is Yahoo Mail, not Messenger. Yahoo Mail on R World existed since ages. One could easily access it via R Surf without paying anything extra than the membership charges. You too, search the Tech forum.

@ Shiva Bandru, The Rs 100 service is a WAP service and not GPRS. GPRS costs 450 per month. I have been using Airtel wap for a long time.

From what i know, Yahoo WAP was available via R Surf since long. But the messenger link on the Yahoo WAP page never worked due to some restrictions.

Hey wait everyone. I have tried searching the tech forum. But didnt get the topic. Dont know where it got lost Any mods reading this? please help.

This was discussed in that thread...abt an year ago....

Anyone of you who wants to try this, go to google from R Surf> Search for Yahoo Mail au in the mobile web> Select the result showing Yahoo! Y! Signin. Thats it. Send and recieve unlimited mails for free (Minus membership charges). But you will not be able to use messenger though. There is however no such restrictions for gsm people though.

And ya, there are some free brew(.JAR) IM softwares for gsm users. But note that they work on only GPRS and not WAP. I guess thats one of the differences between WAP and GPRS.

BYE

For accessing messenger replies, u will have to keep on refreshing the browser right?
