Vodafone 3G WiFi Device Launched in India-MiFi

VODAFONE 3G WiFi Device-MiFi

Vodafone is all set to introduce 3G services in the country.

In preparation to that it has announced a new 3G dongle (device) that acts as a WiFi hotspot and lets five people connect to it for accessing internet.

The device is priced at Rs 5500 the device is cheaper than what Tata Photon offers. The product is quite useful. We hope that Vodafone launches an unlimited plan for this device that will really sweeten the deal for students and small professional teams.

Tata Phonton which offers a respectable 3.1 mbps speed has a similar WiFi dongle which is priced at Rs 6500, almost Rs 1000 costlier than Vodafone offer, and doesn't even offer unlimited plans which they offer for other data cards and dongles.

Vodafone also has been selling 3G dongles for Rs 1500, but right now in absence of 3G services it is offer services through edge network with max speed of 256 kbps.

There are certain phones which come with MiFi capability, including Huawei Ideos, Motorola Milestone, and Apple iPhone.

Reliance Video call Rates Slashed

Reliance 3G Video Call Rates..
Reliance Communications (RCOM), India’s single largest dual technology telecom operator today announced the Video Calling tariff for its 3G Mobile Services users.

Reliance 3G local Video Call cost will be 5 paisa/sec (Rs.3/minute) while STD Video Call will be charged at 7 paisa /sec (Rs.4.20/minute).

With the Telecom Ministry and The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) clearing decks for Video calling on mobile phones, Reliance Mobile announced the 3G Video Calling service with Day and Night tariff structure. The Reliance 3G Video Calling charges are similar to Tata Docomo but not cheap or affordable as state run Pan India 3G Mobile Service operator BSNL and MTNL.

If we compare the Reliance 3G Video Calling tariff with Pan India 3G service provider BSNL/MTNL that its seems that after Tata Docomo now Reliance Mobile threw water over mobile users who had hopes of “Cheap 3G Video Call tariff” from the private operators in India. State run MTNL providing Video Calling at just 1p/sec for other network and 1p/2 sec for OwnNet While BSNL charging 30p to 70p/min.
