Honest 836 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 ^^^ It seems to be a nice offer for those who want the freedom data plan. They will get the data card for free. @supernova Can you please tell us if these data cards are the same as the old ones or they are different. By that I mean like TATA too had announced a Data Card at Rs.2850/- which does not support voice calls. So can you confirm about this Rs.2850/- data card from Reliance that it supports voice calls or not. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me_saket 73 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 huawei USB data card(EC325) support voice call, also it can use with linux, but Rs2850 i don't know which device they are offeering. My choice is GO for huawei itself , for convint, easy, and good after sales service, instead of ZTE or any other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eagerly waiting for TATA's reply.......... as it is with all reliance initiatives, this will also take some time to get it on their website. lets hope by the time it gets listed , tata may relaunch its products.. sooner the better.

Din 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Hmm Does not sound as a good offer. We have to pay the rental in advance and the plan is same old one. Either 1 GB for Rs.650 or Rs.20 per hr (20 hrs - 400 Rs) Seems Reliance launched it to lure customers who are planning to buy BSNL data card - which will be Rs.250 (plus 150 rental) per month for UNLIMITED internet. Oh well, may be TATA wil lbring something like this but sure, there won't be any pleasant surprises Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
