Re: EDGE/GPRS on Vodaphone connection.
1 In Delhi, its Rs. 899 per month for unlimited use.
Plans start from Rs. 199pm but without any free usage, and usage charges are Rs.5/MB which is very costly. EDGE/GPRS are the same thing, Vodafone Mobile connect will provide you EDGE where it is available or will downgrade to GPRS where it's not there.
2 Practical speed will vary depending on the location and time of day(depending on other users)
3 It will depend upon the location you visit. If EDGE is available in the visited circle, you will get it, otherwise GPRS
4. Theoretically it is good enough, but practically no. At some times you may be able to make calls, but at times it may disappoint you.
5. Even GPRS will be good enough if it's to be used mainly for checking mail only.
But why is he changing to Vodafone when Airtel's unlimited use plan is cheaper and Airtel's network too is a little better?
