An IDEA whose time has come.....
Once in while there comes along an idea that so profoundly impacts the lives of people that it is said to define an era.
Wireless telephony is one such.
Technology soothsayers are of the view that millennia from now the 21st century will be remembered as the Century of the Wireless.
Just think of it: Cellular connections in the world have raced to 1 billion in just a decade, and cellular users now outnumber fixed-line users in close to 100 countries.
India has leapfrogged into the wireless age.
It is perched on the ascendancy of a huge J curve that is estimated to cross the 100 million-subscriber mark by 2010.
Making cellular telephony one of the biggest and fastest growing sectors in India.

GPRS - General Packet Radio Service
With GPRS you can enjoy a continuous wireless connection to data networks and access your favourite information and entertainment services. GPRS technology allows mobile phones to be used for sending and receiving data over an Internet Protocol (IP)-based network. GPRS as such is a data bearer that enables wireless access to data networks like the Internet. The applications using GPRS are WAP, MMS, SMS, Java and the PC dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).
EDGE - Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution
EDGE is a smooth upgrade from GPRS networks, providing data services three times as fast as compared to today's other prevailing data technology. The data speeds range from a peak of 200 kbps to an average of 140 kbps. Part of the GSM family, EDGE is a truly global technology. GSM/EDGE networks naturally operate in GSM bands. Edge is a pre-cursor and logical next step in the progression towards 3G networks.
All mobile services benefit from EDGE that enables seamless coverage and capacity extension for 3G like services such as streaming, high-quality video/audio clips, and true mobility to web browsing and corporate data access.
