ok...this is the first step I guess. I think Airtel is coming up in a big way in Mumbai and MTNL has now finally gotten spooked. With Airtel we all know what kind of media Blitzkrieg they can do AFAIK Airtel has put in Fibre Ops on almost all roads and have brought the fibre upto all the buildings. Now its just a matter of wiring up individual buildings. When that happens almost every household will have a Airtel connection in our area. It fits well with Airtel's strategy. I hope to see the prices falling and broadband wars starting soon by August this year. Keep your fingers crossed!

The only realistic possibility of there being a broadband price war in the near future is if Reliance wakes up from its slumber and jumps into the fray in a big way. With TATA expanding quickly too they are losing out on a lot of potential customers. Coz unlike their monsoon hungama blitzkreig incase of mobile telephony which was a big disaster anyway they'll find it difficult to grab market share here coz it ain't a stand a-lone product and only ppl with computers can be targetted. So unless they start giving free computers with their connections or go around persuading ppl to buy comps they can kiss the braodband sector goodbye.

The problem of cable guys still remain, new ISPs are just not allowed to enter new areas without actually giving them a cut.
So unless the cable tv culture (monopoly) doesn't go i don't see the new ISPs spreading that fast.

Nope will not work for me. Way too costly.

 

[viralbug]

just wait and watch when reliance will start its things. its a long time though, but they will each and every house. the cable wallahs will also have to end their monopoly.

 

[lost_soul]

Reliance may have wired up each street, but then it is a big leap from the street to the building, what with all the cable wallahs having a monoply.Also Reliance has been talking about this for years literally years. and hey I'm not getting any younger.... :blink: MTNL since they have a cable inside the Customers premises they could leverage this advantage big time. And the guys at the top are talking and doing this.... but when it comes to the ground relaities, we still face the same crap from these govement babus.Last I heard, MTNL was going to launch IP TV from June.... Say Bye to your cable guy.I know I'm wishing him away

Ok just now i called the friendly lady at 1504 in mumbai.She is clueless about the unlimited 1399 plan.As stated by her, the CC doesnt have any information about that plan to be implemented at mumbai.There goes all hoped down in the drain.However i m optimistic that unlimited plan will soon hit hamari Mumbai. As said by others the plan is way too costly for average joe.That cost can only be justified by 512 kbps unlimited connection.And i dont like the idea of static single IP. (HBKWAREZ ..... Are u gettin it ???? :lol: )I like dynamic IP's only esp for forums when u get banned u can always come back. (link-removed anyone ?? h34r: )
