Airtel customers will no longer have to wait for a video to get buffered while watching streaming videos. They would be able to download a 5 Mb music file in five seconds flat as compared to 160 seconds on a 256 kbps connection," according to P V V Srinivas Roa, Chief Marketing Officer.

Airtel's eight Mbps broadband service will initially be available in Bangalore, Chennai, Pune, Kolkata, Delhi and the NCR

Not Bad but its only for selected cities

but is NU available on 8mbps.
without UL or NU plans 8mbps is trash and crap.
32 GB DLed with 2mbps NU.
who needs 8mbps with 8GB limit?
MTNL must launch a 4mbps UL plan.

60mb=1 minute
3.5Gb=one hour
84gb=1 day
2.5TB=1 month

Airtel rocks again.........
Yaa...I agree with you all that download limit S**ks.Airtel should consider regarding this.But tariff will depend on TRAI, and singtel (a Singapore company from which Airtel buys bandwidth).

Tariff should be moderate for this download speed. Rs. 2000 for 8 GB is really going to be very bad decision from Airtel.
