Speaking on Reltel Promo. Is anybody familiar with the samsung ip-830w? The internet said it is a CDMA/GSM Combo, is that true? How does it hold up. I also heard that it has loads of problems? Any experience?!
Meanwhile I got the reltel Mogul and I think it is the best thing to happen to telephony in Nigeria! HTC Mogul for N20,000+2 weeks of free internet access!? Thumb up for reltel.
The bad part is that Reltel is pure rubbish in Ibadan. The network regularly disappear for hours and sometimes days. How can they be taken seriously with that kind of mediocre performance! Reltel-Ibadan, please sit up or one day, I will change the ESN of my mogul and move over to Onet. |

I heard about this sometime ago but that was a Windows CE device.
I read the review, it is quite bulky, runs on WM5 and comes with a down-sliding qwerty keypad.
Is Reltel offering this in the promo too?

You are beginning to tempt me.

No intention to tempt. But Check out the value; A windows mobile 6 (6.1 if you are brave to put new unsupported firmware) phone with wifi (b/g), gps, 512Mb micro SD, 64mb ram, 256mb rom, 2.0 bluetooth, size of nokia n95, 2mp camera with flash, 2 weeks of browsing (on the phone and on your laptop, all cables included) all for N20,000! It is a steal! I have had it for two weeks and I think it is rock solid.
What I need reltel to do now is to give me a pay as you go internet access and everything will be perfect.

@adrusa: I am quite familiar with the specs of the Mogul having read several reviews of the device when I was contemplating to buy one early this year. But O'yom who dropped his Retel Treo a couple of weeks earlier gave a bad report of Reltel's data service.
If I am right, the 'pay as you go' internet service is more expensive, why not choose a data plan?

@mamba: It is possible but in the Lagos area only Intercellular network accepts to do this. Talking of Intercellular, do they provide internet service? Are they still in business?

I was about to ask the same question. what exactly is intercellular up to? I heard a rumour sometime ago that Dangote's telecoms company bought intercellular |

@amby: such an acquisition would be a welcome development. Intercellular almost doesn't exist any longer.

@brym
I just need some light mobile internet. I have an unlimited broadband in the office. But if their internet is all that you have, I think they are okay. I have taken it through its paces and I'm relatively satisfied.
@all
There is no way to move your mogul right now. I have been researching it. You can be sure if there is a way, I will find it. |

VERY POSSIBLE! It only requires some little work and it is not at any provider's shop. Hope that make sense. How about this free browsing? Nobody wants to share?! |

The free browsing only works on opera mini via MTN. If you already have Reltel internet, it might not be very useful to you..
but if you still want it, send me a PM and I'll 4ward it to you.
Have you guys heard about Nokia now owning Symbian (UIQ, S60 and MOAP(S) to be integrated)

@all: this free browsing of a thing is really giving me pangs of you know what.. I've been hitched on the MTN network unerringly for weeks now but decided to check out glo few days back. While MTN's albatross has been described by Mamba;Opera,Glo's is a minor tweak in the settings(sorry I'm not saying which) and you're there.I can't remember loving my 990's browser as I do now cos I have the latitude to leave the images open and the quality is glorious. Unlike MTN's where pictures are hardly saved,Glo gives one the option of saving small files saved. My 4giggy is almost bursting at d seems now. But alas comes this conscience pangs on me and I begin to wonder; How come this hack happened across all the networks and at the same time?What av the engineers been doing about this cos,surely,the packet data revenue must av dropped substancially(I've not loaded credit on MTN for ages). Or, are the leakages official policy decisions of the providers to bond pple like me bf unleashing the full power of 3.5G? You see,I'm enjoying now but I know it won't last and thatz scary. After getting addicted & the freebie goes belly up and with the current data charges, what would pple like me do?or is this their bait before a price crash? Whatever the case it is, I hereby take a position that'll ensure my sanity when the bubble burst!;I AM NOT ENJOYING UR FREEBIE. I AM WILLING TO PAY 5K FOR MONTHLY DATA BUNDLES SO I'LL OPTIMALLY ENJOY MY PHONE WITHOUT LET OR HINDRANCE!.SURELY THIS'S BETTER THAN THIS FREE BROWSING HORROR SCENE AND STILL MAKE MONEY AND PLUG THE REVENUE LEAK. UNTIL
U GRANT MY REQUEST FREE BROWSING MUST CONTINUE NUENDINGLY.Expiation,concluded,carthasis,reached!! pangs,subsided!!!

Is Glo network 3.5G enabled?
I get close to 124kbps on 3G only with Glo..
That's one reason why I hate SE. I can't believe the G900 is still not 3.5G capable. I'm definitely not buying it cos I have made up my mind now and moving to Nokia N78.
Check MTN website for data speeds..
@Ifed, maintain the secrecy...
