All this is happening because of the down to earth call rates due to the intense competition which has made the call rates to come down to as low as 1Ps/ Pulse.

This Drastic decrease in call rates has had the Telecom providers in a fix as the revenue is plummeting very drastically in a very short time.

According to Statistics the average revenue per subscriber or ‘Arpu’(Average Revenue Per User) that telecom companies in India earn has plunged 30% to Rs160 per month — one of the lowest rates in the world — from around Rs225 a year back.

According to a Telecom Expert "The Customer care queries are increasing drastically due to the congestion in the networks due to the increase in the number of users, and this has shown a way for the telecom providers to gain Revenue from different sources.

Accordingly The different users have changed the features in their Customer care interface to suite the charges which are being implied on the customers first by Airtel, then Loop mobile and then Vodafone.

this is what the different Network providers had to say:

A Vodafone Essar spokesperson said: “We changed our IVR system very recently. If you call 111, the IVR will ask whether you want to register a complaint or do something else. If it’s a complaint, the caller will be asked to terminate the call and dial 198, which is toll free. But if you need to talk to an agent, a message will tell you that the call will be charged at 50p for three minutes.”

Loop Mobile spokesperson said the Ruia Group company plans to roll out a big advertisement campaign for customers. “We have already sent SMSes to our subscribers that some calls to customer care will be charged from April 1.”

A Reliance Communications spokesperson said the company’s customer care numbers have always been toll free if the caller calls from a Reliance number. He said the company will also provide the number 198toll free for complaints as directed by Trai.

Bharathi Airtel:

One of Asia’s leading integrated telecom services providers with more than 110 million subscribers as of 2009. It is is now the world's third-largest, single-country mobile operator and sixth-largest integrated telecom operator.

Globally, Bharti Airtel is the 3rd largest in-country mobile operator by subscriber base.

Bharathi Airtel also provides services like:

• Mobile Services - GSM Technology:
• Broadband & Telephone Services (Fixed line)
• Internet Connectivity(DSL)
• Long Distance Services and Enterprise Services

Globally, Bharti Airtel is the 3rd largest in-country mobile operator by subscriber base, behind China Mobile and China Unicom. In India, the company has a 24.6% share of the wireless services market.

With Airtel giving one of the best services in the Mobile Networks industry in India, it is the top Network provider in India which has been giving the best network services in India.

Aircel:

The Aircel group is a joint venture between Maxis Communications Berhad of Malaysia and Sindya Securities & Investments Private Limited, whose current shareholders are the Reddy family of Apollo Hospitals Group of India, with Maxis Communications holding a majority stake of 74%.

Aircel commenced operations in 1999 and became the leading mobile operator in Tamil Nadu within 18 months. In December 2003, it launched commercially in Chennai and quickly established itself as a market leader – a position it has held since.

Aircel began its outward expansion in 2005. The company gained a foothold in 18 circles including Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Assam, North East, Orissa, Bihar, Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, West Bengal, Kolkata, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Delhi, UP(West), UP(East), Maharashtra & Goa and Mumbai.

With over 25 million happy customers in the country, Aircel is a full-fledged national operator.

Aircel has gained momentum in the Mobile Internet field by introducing Unlimited Browsing offers, which has forced other Network providers to decrease the Browsing rates to be in competition.

There are estimated to be 500 million mobile phones in India by the end of 2010, so this shows that there is going to be a drastic increase in new users,, so this has waged a war in the Mobile indusrty. With the likes of Docomo shocking the industry with 1Ps/sec all the network providers have had to decrease the call rates to be in the competition.

With Aircel and Uninor coming into the Indian market have further added to the woes of the already present Providers by introducing lesser call rates then the existing ones. So now the call rates have come down to 0.5 Ps/sec for local calls and 50 Ps/min for STD.

This is getting better and better for the common public as now everyone can afford having a mobile phone due to these less call rates.

Here is the list of the Mobile Network providers in India:

There was a lot of Expectations form the device, but it let us down very badly. Lets see where the iPad went horribly wrong.

No Multi Tasking:

This device which is supposed to be a gadget built to fill in the gap between a smart phone and a Mac, does not support multi tasking, then how in the world can they say that it is something near to a laptop. Even a basic Smart phone supports Multi tasking. This is the major let down by apple they just copied the Features of the iPhone and elongated it into the iPad.

The least apple could have done is including Multi tasking into the iPad, to make it something worth giving a try.

The Design:

What can be told about the design, it is just a copy of Apple iPhone minus the curves. The Design is just taken from the iPhone and put into the iPad it is just an Elongated thinner version of the iPhone.

Apple could have done much better than just making it a taller brother of the iPhone, with the same central key and the Sleep buton on the top.

Does not Support Flash:

This is another disappointing feature, the iPad does not support Flash and this is the same taken from the iPhone, insted of correcting and including Flash Apple has just made it more worse by  not including Flash atleast for the iPad.

This means that we cannot have Flash based games and the Flash based websites cannot be viewed to their full capacity.

No USB Slot:

There are no USB slots included in the iPad, which also adds to the misery of using this Tablet, we cannot transfer stuff from other computers easy and fast. The only thing which we can do is use this tablet as a Netbook and god knows why Steve made the statement that this is a device which will fill in the gap between Smartphone and Laptops, and it is just another Net book like the many other devices we can find out there.

No Camera:

There is neither a camera, the feature available in the iPhone is also absent in this.

The Same Apps as iPhone:

The iPad supports the same Apps as that of the iPhone, without any Flash even the Apps which support Flash cannot be used in this. The App developers are left helpless due to this and we have to suffer with the same 3rd party apps available in the App store.

No Full GPS:

The Wi-Fi-only versions flat out have no GPS support whatsoever. The basic versions have to compensate of GPS. The 3G versions have Assisted GPS, which makes use of the cellular connection to help pinpoint your location.

No SD Slot:

The absense of an SD slot makes the iPad memory very costly, with 15$ for 250 MB we have to shell out a lot of money to get to the higher end version of the iPad.

The Pricing is based on the memory:

For a Tablet i think this is just a lame thing to do, by placing the pricing based on the memory and that too by  giving 250 MB for 15$ is such a shame.

Overall looking at the Device we can say that, iPad is not living up to its expectations. There were way too high expectations on the device and it has got nothing near it.

"We can say that iPad is just and Elongated iTouch"

Samsung is now entering into the OS market after grasping quite a good share of the Mobile market. Recently Samsung has introduces its own OS which is said to be based on Linux and is made available in UK so that developers can make Applications on the new platform.

Samsung has named it "BADA OS" which means Ocean in Korean language.

And it is out for the developers to bring out some good internet apps out for the OS so that it can compete with the big guns in the segment like Apple OS and Android OS by google.

Samsung has to come up with an App store also following Apple and Nokia. Samsung which is the largest mobile phone company in numbers, surely has some big ideas to take over the market completely.

Most of Samsung's smartphones use Windows Mobile and the handset maker also launched one of the first Android-based phones.

Purpose of Samsung Bada OS in its own words:

More and more people want the rich and connected application-experiences that are currently only available for smartphone consumers. Samsung has developed bada to make these exclusive smartphone experiences available to everyone.
