Hmmm thats a great news to hear about 3G guys as far as coverage goes 3G works on almost same platform as 2.5G(so called GSM) all they need is a little upgrade to their cell sites and it would be ready for 3G use so airtel could go for it but if reliance is planning that then reliance has to take the hard way round by upgrading their 2G (CDMA) to 3G which needs major modification so lots of home-work to be done

thats a misconception,both require (gsm and cdma) require almost same amount of effort to upgrade to 3g. and the gsm 3g works on quite different pattern from our ordinary gsm. reliance networks are defenitley 2.5g (they call their network 3g themslelves infact!) but its cdma, and i think when it comes to upgrade to 3g , i think cdma has an edge ,ie i belive to Evo-duo is easier to upgrade for cdma than for utms/3g for gsm. but im not sure which is better though

I think the operators should let the edge service flourish first and then the 3g... There will be infinite problems regarding the use of 3g... Firstly most of us will need a 3g handset... Secondly. The plans will definately priced high.... So this raises the question do we really need 3g?..... And if some day we start using 3g then there will be numerous problems regarding speeds, server down.. (they are already occuring in gprs)

3G will co-exist with 2/2.5G,for all those teething problems to be resolved itll take time,thats usual.by the look of it you dont have to worry about 3g coming anytime soon everywhere.

To be quite honest, I dont think that investing in 3G services and infrastructure at this point of time is a good idea. I do, however think, investing the available funds into the next generation technology is a better idea.
