It's corrected now. I only referred to value added services; WAP was sold as a killer app. GPRS was sold as a killer app. And now 3G is being touted as the next best thing to happen to men after...ummm invention of wheel. :-) They also want to make us believe that 3G would take care of the present inefficiencies. I really wonder whether that's possible; 3G everywhere else hasn't really set the Thames on Fire. It's practically a non starter in Europe. High costs of handsets et al. Santosh, sorry for the goof up. It’s corrected now.

Would you be able to talk a little bit in detail on the following para.? <i>GSM at best can be scaled up to WAP, GPRS or the 3G services. All for “faster” downloads. Does that really translate in better customer experience? So far, GPRS et al haven’t shown that to be possible; I am deeply circumspect about 3G roll out. Plus, GSM is inefficient user of spectrum.</i> My last name is spelt Dawara :-) , I would rather you just call me Santosh.
