Unfortunately the delays are not even in my control. If it were, we would have launched over a year ago. It's not a rollout thing - it's a regulatory thing. Unless and until I get cleared as being NOT a threat to the state of India, nothing can happen.

List of channels missing on Tata Sky DTH

Posted: 02 Feb 2011 06:55 AM PST

atleast all the people from andhra hate tata sky for not providing only movie channel gemini movies in telugu(which was available before as teja tv).. only fools go for extras without giving basic stuff. people will definetely be frustated when they not provided basic things. i'm sure tata sky fails miserably in near future in andhra.


Raja gets arrested - what's the twist in the story now

Posted: 02 Feb 2011 06:47 AM PST

Hohoho, this is indeed some news.. i didnt expect this!

2G scam: Former Telecom Minister A Raja arrested

Here is a quetion, I dont think congress has answer too.
'If Sibal was right, then why's Raja arrested' - Politics - Politics News - ibnlive

Does this all prove PM's inability to monitor the ministers elected by he himself?

Does this also mean that CWG scam has also happened and government didnt do anything inspite knowing things?

What abt Adarsh Nagar scam?

Does all these prove congress has failed completely and shud call it off and resign from parliament?

---------- Post added at 08:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ----------

In the end I dont think anything will really happen to Raja. Even Lalu has been to jail and out.


Flickr by Yahoo: Web's most popular photo sharing service

Posted: 02 Feb 2011 06:37 AM PST

Wonder what happened to the admin who did this. I feel sorry for both the admin and the user, and it is tough to take a hard action on the admin, nor can Flickr ever compensate the blogger for his loss. This is however a nice opportunity for the blogger to sue Yahoo for a million dollar figure as emotional and social damage

Therefore, no single connectivity solution would be optimal in India.
Never said it was; it still doesn't change the fact that wireless internet is crap.
Quote:

While fibre optic and cable may be possible in urban land masses (cables are already laid), cost and maintenance would be impractical in India's hinterland.
Fibre optic internet is the most expensive form of internet available. It's not even available in all regions of, say, NYC or London. So yeah, it's not coming to India anytime soon.
Cable internet is an entirely different matter.
Infrastructure costs aren't that high - almost every home on India with capacity to afford internet has cable TV.
Cable internet is an extremely cost-effective and reliable wired alternative.
The only reason that cable doesn't take off properly is possibly because the cable lines are controlled by local mafias (lolz) who offer craptastic service. But obviously our government won't do anything to fix this.
Quote:

That is where wifi, wimax and 3G / 4G become so much more cost-effective and fast to implement.
Nope. It's more expensive than DSL/ADSL for obvious reasons; and more expensive than cable.
Quote:

Mobile internet like 3G is also a great boon to people who travel, and require constant connectivity.
Of course. However the need to get a permanent Wifi connection at home is what completely befuddles me.

Wifi *IS* being marketed as a "cheap" and better alternative to wired internet all over india, especially in big cities. Wireless internet only supplements wired internet; and has the extremely situational use of access on the move.

There is absolutely zero interest to improve twisted pair dsl/adsl lines and even less interest to implement cable internet.

Wireless internet has fluctuating speeds, horrendous packet loss issues and signal issues. It's great for casual stuff like checking emails occasionally obviously; but total garbage for anything that requires a decent internet connection.

It completely escapes me why people buy 3G in droves for exclusively home usage for higher prices when plans like BSNL home 500 or other unlimited plans that are also quite cheap are so readily available with DSL.

Please try to face facts; it's a common delusion to think India has the most intelligent people in the entire world and everything our government does is glorious.
