Twitter / ssk: Tata Indicom Launches ‘Cal ...

The basic idea of people moving / using twitter is being short to send /shout and quick-reading. In a regular basis.. not many are enthusiast to write long blogs each day. Twitter helps to quickly and crisply send your status or update/share some info. While this call2twitter might be comparatively better to post than type and tweet.. but reading tweets in a single glance is much much better than selecting a media link and play it.

Mobile Broadband in India

"A comment that I had written on a discussion regarding mobile broadband in India on BWA spectrum"


Personally, I believe there is first need to drive the need for BROADBAND for common man. Probably the operator will have enough time to study the market after the 3G deployment. India has wide range of user-base. Dongles are not the business for common man. Who needs "data" and what goes on "data" will be drive the mode of deployment of BROADBAND.

Few comments on the technical flaw in the article

The first statement itself is technically incorrect!! "Wimax-LTE (Long Term Evolution, the fourth-generation mobile technology invented by Qualcomm Inc of the US"

Author of the article should consult some wireless technology person..

a) Wimax-LTE are two different technologies..

b) Qualcomm did not invent LTE!!

LTE is colloborative standard developed by the 3GPP (considered to be leaded by EUROPEAN countries)

c)LTE is based on OFDM not (CDMA for what Qualcomm is better known for)

d) OFDM has been more than 40-50 years and 802.11 is based on OFDM techniques
