yes...govt has given permision for 3g spectrum 3-4 days back.the telcom companies my not have got the letter.anyway the 3g infrastructure is already up and they will need some time for testing.
hope they will get it starting by end of this year.
but i bet it would be damn expensive. |

Hey guys, Half news..! The TRAI has not yet alloted the Spectrum to the GSM operators as there are objections placed by CDMA Operators who would like to use the same spectrum for their 3G services...Hence the wait is still longer upto next year...!
TRAI will take the ruling by the end of March or April

Shivam...The Indian Gov has alloted the Spectrum to prevent congestion of networks as there has been a rise in subscribers after the Lifetime schemes..The 3 G Spectrum issue has not yet been resolved..The TRAI is still undecided on allotment of the new spectrum or have the operators use the current spectrum to full utilization...!
I would suggest keep checking the COAI ( Cellular Operator Association Of India) website at http://www.coai.in for the news we all so want to hear....!
Well advantages of 3G will be that you will have higher Media content available- You can watch live streaming video's/ Live TV/Faster Connectivity on GPRS-EDGE/ Video Calls- Basically you will have more Media content- Which is not going to be cheap...Somehow apart from Live Video Streaming and Video Calls I rather put content on the phone myself..!
3G is not cheap- The cost of 3G Implementation is very high,The equipment is also not very cheap...So the services whenever they come will be exorbitant to start with..unless them come out with competitive pricing from the start...!
Imagine Video Call ( Local ) - 15 Rs/Min
Normal Call ( Local) - 0.50 p/Min
Still For curiosity sake will try it once...lol
