Rep Power: 2 | how can cards meant for 2g network tech work on 3g network? It's very much doubtful. Cards meant for 3g networks might be backward compatible though. |

Rep Power: 2 | 3g but the recent evdo card says its 3g compatible. But i have not confirmed with BSNL officials but the box says so. So i think the evdo card can handle 3g sims. |

Rep Power: 1 | Though there are rumours of it being a 3G service, the site nowhere mentions that it is 3G. So, according to me it is 2G and not 3G! |

Rep Power: 2 | Evdo Yes the new EVDO is 3G compatible. If u have a 3G sim u can insert it in the back and use it to receive signals. But I dont know whether it will work or not as it programmed to work for CDMA signals. Moreover the EVDO service is not 3G. It is a 2G technology in CDMA. But it works in 2 technologies that is EVDO and CDMA1X. |

Rep Power: 9  | EVDO is 3G for CDMA. However, in India, its power has been restricted by disabling the Voice and SMS functions and allowing only data transfer functions. This is due to Govt. regulations on 3G. As voice is disabled it is considered to be not 3G What is EVDO? : EVDOinfo.com |

Rep Power: 2 | Unofficial info (from a BSNL executive) 3G will be fully functional in 4 months in hyderabad  , bt will have very good speeds  but I did not understand this - On the BSNL website it shows that 3G is available and also contains tariffs.. then why did the official say the above statement????  |
