Was checking Airtel in Pune and noticed it's available in Mumbai too as of July, 1 2006
Great news !!!
Dude, before getting so excited you should've checked around. Airtel SUCKS. why? Well simply because it is available only in select BUILDINGS in Mumbai. Yeah, not even select AREAS but SELECT BUILDINGS. They have been feeding me their bull crap about being available in my area since November 2005. Their fiber is lying just outside my building premises since August 2005 >:(
It isn't the fibre, it is how far you are from the termination point. So why don't you get your society to wire itself up, and then just buy an E1 and share it amongst yourselves?
Flat rate Internet is cheap *IFF* you remove the cost of the last mile. The last mile is high capex, low opex.
