well herea costly one but the best one in price sense of its network speed and network sensing

its LG G3100 @ Rs. 4000

desertwind · 14-09-2005, 10:54 PM

ok thanks guys, anymore suggestions ?

@infra_red_blue: i heard that SE has got poor network reception, is that true ?

infra_red_dude · 15-09-2005, 07:51 PM

well i dun experience any poor network wid it! i've used a j200i,t610 and currently using k700i. no reception problem at all!

desertwind, Yeah thats true as far as I know..
There is a benq one also for abt the same price. As far as Nokia goes, 3105 is a good option.

ok, if network resception is no problem, i'll be most probably going for SE t290i. Can anyone quote the approximate price ot it ?

@drgrudge: 3105 is CDMA right ?

First do'nt believe your local handset sellers they will tell you every phone with GPRS to be having modem. For example they told me Nokia 3120, SE 230i etc have modem but they do'nt have.

I have done a lot of research for this in past. Following results are based on nearly one month of research on Internet.

Cheapest Nokia Phone with Modem is Nokia 3220 @Rs. 4800
Cheapest Sony Ericsson Phone with Modem is SE K300i @ Rs. 5000
Cheapest LG Phone with Modem is LG B2070 @Rs. 3500

Conclusion: LG B2070 is the cheapest Phone with modem for browsing Internet on your PC using your Phone's GPRS connection.

The prices may vary a little.

and Yeah 3105 is CDMA.
