until the slow machinery moves in the cable and dsl and dishnet office and
industry - you will keep hearing tall claims of success.
believe it when you see it next door
until then go and buy a rolta pack for 2750 and enjoy for the month of
december - unlimited free access.
they will start billing you starting from 01 Jan and until then you are
free to
splurge !!!!
guys - dsl or dishnet or cable - all of them will come to you for a price
which will start
at around 5 to 10 K - until then come along - dont use your VSNL
MTNL Satyam accounts for december - login with rolta and pick up your mail
from
these places and just have a nice time
thats what i am doing !
