How is it ? What is the rent, charges and are all sites allowed ? Hutch no longer allows tagtag sites. Plus, is browsing speed good ?

Here are the charges for MTNL gprs. There are two plans one is basic wap at 90 bucks a month. It has a 5 mb limit though. And 10 paise for every additional kb. 50 free mms per month and 3 bucks for additional ones. The other option is 400 bucks a month unlimited usage with 200 mms free and Rs.3 for additional ones. These rates are for Bombay.

Speed is good.They have all sites access open.And orange is worst gprs service.only their mms free service is good.I have used the orange gprs and airtel gprs.At present airtel is best value for money.They give you access from comp also for 199 with no limit.but with orange you have only 100 mb free with there orange access.With monthly charge of 499.Also orange speed is worst.Lots of user with no upgradation of gprs nodes.

yup... i used to have orange bfore switching to Airtel...its a complete ripoff.....Airtel works like a charm on my phone as well as on the laptop....Even If they increase the monthly charges by some amount, i wouldnt mind paying a lil extra as it is definitely worth it....

Does anybody know if GPRS is avilable on mtnl prepaid in mumbai. I dont get the GPRS in range icon on my K700 as long as mtnl network is selected.
Thanks
