TELECOMM IN INDIA: Number portability
http://telecommindia.blogspot.com/2007/04/number-portability.html
Monday, April 16, 2007. When will number portability start? I am sick of Airtel. They charge you for so much more than you use. And to see your complete call lists you need to pay Rs. 75. So what if they charge Rs.1 per call . they know of ways to make money. If there was number portability - I would definitely not be AIRTEL. Today May be HUTCH? May be even Reliance . even if I would have to buy a CDMA. Have you had any bad experience with your operator? Want to tell me before I make another mistake ?

http://telecommindia.blogspot.com/2008/02/airtel-with-nokia-or-nokia-with-airtel.html
Tuesday, February 19, 2008. Airtel with Nokia or Nokia with Airtel. Airtel is the leading operator in India with over 52 million subscribers. It operates the GSM network - has upgraded to GPRS and EDGE. There is no 3G yet in India, mainly because of policy issues, i.e., government issues. Nokia is the leader in handsets in India. It caters to everyone - right from the bottom of the pyramid with INR 1,100 (USD 27) handsets to the rich and the famous with INR 30,500 (USD 760). For Airtel, its a good deal.

TELECOMM IN INDIA: December 2007
http://telecommindia.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 18, 2007. Change is good - this was Vodafone's. Catch line when they rebranded. I thought it was beautiful. And I guess it is. But how often is it that you are the one whose life goes through changes and you still think "change is good". If only change was good why would there be a big hog wash. Over the spectrum.
