@ulysses, I bought a post paid connection which was being sold in our office campus, 675 plan. Presumed it will be good. You are right the color still showed solid blue, but speed was 40 Kbps. I tried at both home and office, my non 3g MTS card was faster.But as I write this using the same airtel datacard, the speed seems improved. The status today says HSPA airtel, whatever that means. DO not know how long the improved speed will last.
