May I remind you that Airtel is the only ISP currently offering 256Kbps unlimited at Rs.999? MTNL, Reliance, Sify, <insert your favorite ISP here> dont provide unlimited connections. If they do, then they have very high tariffs. See the point is that Indian entrepreneurs suck big time including ADA and Bharati Mittal. They dont have aggressive expansion plans. ADA is currently shooting himself in the foot in his CDMA biz and driving away all his loyal customers.
Yes, Airtel currently has a monopoly and that is why I am pissed off at them. Do you think anybody would've waited for their stupid services if equivalent alternatives were available?!
I still donot see monopoloy anywhere . i donot understand this . they donot have a billing system in place ... they donot have field staff trained and etc etc hen why would you even go with them even if they gave cheaper than 999 a month ! ... such services wud be called beta and sud be marked free :D
and to be a little rude to you now ... if you really cut down on so called cool and unnecessary downloads and file share et all you maybe happier than now.
and what does it have to do with ADA , mittals etc its the team and maybe it is execution that sucks. may be you are not their target segment ... just coz you think they are not cool doesnt mean they are loosers.
also can u please summarize the points that you infer from this thread so that ppl who have lost track / interest can flame further :D
