Now everyone wants to offer Internet services

February 19, 2008 · Posted in Tech tidbit 

First was the news that Railways is planning to offer free onboard Internet on select Rajdhani and Shatabdi trains.

Next was that the DLF group is planning to provide Internet access via Wi-Fi across DLF buildings all over India.

Today, Kingfisher Airlines signed a deal, which makes it likely that they may soon offer Internet and telephony services onboard.

Wow - suddenly, everyone is on an Internet high ? Never mind if you’re still having problems getting that BSNL connection you ordered 4 months back.

    Its not that bad actually. Some alternatives are available now and usually you can get a working connection the next day.

    I understand you are probably exaggerating for a laugh.. i just wanted to add my 2 cents. Cheers.

    akshay — no. my friend recently went through a 4 month ordeal. the area he moved to is not serviced by airtel. so, he had to opt for bsnl.

    and the entire experience was a nightmare for him.

    yeah i understand, internet penetration is certainly not up to the mark, but i think its improving (if you compare with what we had a couple years back).

    akshay - definitely..that is not debatable. the service and quality have come a long way.

    On the contrary, I’ve got a great deal from BSNL. It look about 6 days to start functioning, and just doesn’t go offline at all.

    Even when you don’t pay the bills!!!

    Now who could match that?

    @sudhanshu,

    that indeed sounds like an awesome deal — no one could beat that ;-)
