iDEA is good in Maharashtra, Gujarat and GOA. I am not sure about other states.

BTW, where are you located? How is the service in your area?

Idea cellular has good services almost every where except in delhi (bad coverage , may be bcoz it operates @ 1800Mhz & not on 900Mhz band)
I almost forgot to mention that idea is the 1st service provider in India to start GPRS & is the 1st service provider to have a 3G compatible network in India.

I don't think frequency matters. What matters is how many towers are available to provide the coverage.

For instance, Airtel is very good in Delhi but very poor in Maharashtra because as the last entrant into this circle, it did not get good sites for towers. The same holds true of iDEA in New Delhi circle.

IDEA is one of the best service providers in Kerala. Give them time for expanding their presence.

Frequency does matter. High frequency means lower penetration power, hence low transmitted distance. Hence more number of towers are required for seamless network.

May be its time that Idea entered into a tower sharing agreement, at least in NCR.
BTW the netsetter modem thats presently offered by Idea is 3G enabled.

3g services, as of now are not available under any service provider in india.infact, in the times of recession, the govt of india has increased the minimum prices for auction to double the original price they set.so now the auctions would start sometime in july....
