BSNL to Launch 3G by Next June
Quote:
State-run telecom major Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) hopes to roll out its third generation (3G) mobile services by June next year, using the technology of Sweden's Ericsson, a top company official has said.
"We hope to receive the equipment from Ericsson from December. It will take some six months to roll out the services. We will earmark around 10 million lines for the initial launch," the official, who did not wish to be identified, said.
He was referring to the tender for 45 million lines worth $1.75 billion floated two years ago, where Ericsson was given 60 per cent of the order—and out of that, 10 million have now been earmarked for the 3G service.
The 3G service not only allows much faster communications but also a wide range of applications such as high-speed net access, video calls, fast music and video downloads, interactive gaming and global positioning over internet.
The official said BSNL also proposed to open another mega tender for 90 million lines worth some $9 billion by the end of this month. Of this, 50 per cent of the lines would be set aside for 3G telephony, he said.
"But we will have a mid-term assessment of the roll-out since we are still not sure about the potential of 3G in the country. It is an expensive service and we have to understand how much demand there will be."
Communications Minister A Raja had August 1 announced the much-awaited guidelines for the auction of spectrum, or airwaves, to launch third-generation (3G) mobile phone services in the country.

Re: BSNL to Launch 3G by Next June
wonder why govt choose to allot additional septrum?
why can't 3g services be provided in current allotted septrum, like in US?
additional septrum=additional license=license fees= Ultimately, higher costs for consumers.
its the govt filling its cash reserves.
