Many people (including me) dislike 3G for the fact that it has low caps, varying speeds, bit high latency and lastly super expensive. Well, all that is true, but still 3G makes lot of sense. How ? Today I had a very interesting experience where I saw a farmer siting next to me in bus and looking into commodity prices in cell phone’s web browser! (wow!) Well that was really... Read More
Two weeks back, a great-old cordless phone died at my home. It was just giving too many issues including poor voice, and no ringer sound. I just un-plugged it and added a backup old phone (the one we got from BSNL). It was just an “ok-type” replacement since no wireless features and even no called ID. Interestingly no one at home felt any problem without cordless phone and till date... Read More

When you can get 2Mbps speed for 250Rs a month plan, why speeds get 1/4th when you go for un-metered 512Kbps plan? I started working on a project to improve Internet connectivity in... Read More
There have been lot of news about Airtel blocking blogspot today. Well, did they really blocked it? It’s very hard to give a direct answer to that. Firstly, I believe that Airtel must have not intentionally blocked whole blogspot.com domain name (well they are a big ISP, and I don’t think they will go that kidish!). What could be problem? To understand that - let’s break Internet connection into parts... Read More
You must have seen really cheap calling rates from IP telephony providers like Skype to US, and European countries. Infact for US, you can get an unlimited calling plan to all phones for as low as $3 a month. Why no such thing in India? One can call US phones for like 1cent a min, while calls to Indian phones remains as high as 3-4cents a min. To understand what’s... Read More
