Reliance infotel 4G @ 10 rs. per GB....???!!!

[devx101]

so true,

almost all the news items about the Infotel talks about tablets being offered at low rates. I hope they also have option of USB sticks rather than just the tablets. With high speeds and low tariff they could even get desktop users to buy their service if they have USB sticks as an option.

of course they will have usb sticks,that will always be there main revenue source.

Tabs etc are only for revenue enhancement, increasing product portfolio as well as the limelight.

Reliance readies big-bang entry into new sectors

We will leverage 4G is two ways. Interactive classes on the net require consistent speeds of 120 MBPS, which will be available with 4G. With it, we will offer one-to-one as well as one-to-many tuition classes at affordable prices,” says Kulshresta. The company also intends to develop special applications for 4G tablets, something for which Reliance is in talks with low-cost producer Datawinds, made famous by its world’s cheapest product, Aakash. The plan is to offer tuition on the net for Rs 300 an hour for the one-to-one package and around Rs 50 for the one-to-many package, for 20 students

The article says
The Mukesh Ambani company may offer data at as low as Rs 10 per gigabit of data, say people familiar with its plans, compared with Rs 100 for most operators now.

The bold part reads gigabit (Gb) and not gigabyte (GB)... It is generally used as a marketing ploy...

no one uses Gb to denote data in usual language. i would imagine that the author probably made a typo.

Don't think so since he got the part regarding other operators charging 100 bucks per 100 MB correctly.

Most operators sell 100MB data packs for Rs. 100, maybe Reliance wants to sell it at Rs. 10 which is still a sharp drop...
