BSNL decided to canvas for Dataone in out Apartment complex today. They offered on the spot connections and spent the whole day under a shamiana with a PC and a laptop demonstrating the connection speeds etc. They also had one of their mobile directory distribution vans here, so quite a few people exchanged old directories for new ones. And pretty much the entire top level staff was down here, including the commercial officer and the SDE. Neato. I was having a chat with them yesterday when they were talking about a "target" for today. Wonder if they achieved the same. What was really good to see was the kind of effort they are willing to put in.
In other news, watched quite a few movies...Enemy of the State, Die Another Day, the ending bits of Catch Me If You Can and some dumb Sunny Deol hindi movie on Star Plus.

It does not interfere with voice at all, does not keep the line busy, and you can use the phone normally.
Many people taking D1 right now have only one phone line at home.
Maybe your dad's office could apply for it?
Bsnl does it again, it waits like a patient lion till its hungry.. .and when its ready .. it goes for the kill .. forcing others in the jungle to take notice and try to bring in some sort of competition.
It started off with cellone .. with bsnl "introducing" the concept of free incoming calls and free sms.All the others followed suit,well it had a lot to do with the telecom regulator as well .. but Bsnl won the first round of the battle.
Then comes Dataone! .. which forces all the others to standardize their tarrif plans and lure the customer not by the price tag, but by promising superior service and other "value added services".
As a result of this broadband battle,the smaller players are being swallowed ,which is quite sad.
Three cheers to the broadband war! .. coz there is only one winner here !! .. thats the customer !
But the point is BSNL is THE main reason for other private players to keep a constant vigil on their pricing.
Bsnl no doubt benifits from its association with the govt,and its total lack of professionalism .. atleast at a micro level...
BTW .. are u on D1 or some other connection ?
