However it’s now official Reliance Pro 3 Rev B EVDO service is currently available to its customers in Chennai and Bangalore – two metros where Rcom does not have its own 3G spectrum ( Remember like Airtel-Vodafone-Idea’s ICRA for 3G, Rcom has its agreement with Tata Tele & Aircel but yet to roll out services in non-3G circles). Reliance has been aggressive with EVDO service recently with launching new plans and upgrading CDMA data plans to EVDO. As of now Rcom will expand its Pro 3 services in selected top metros & cities in non 3G circles in a phased manner.
