The second wave

The second wave: "All telecom experts today agree that Indians will increasingly start using mobile broadband services — on their smart phones, their netbooks, and their tablets. The question to which the telecom titans do not have any answer is which technological route the majority of Indian consumers will take to access mobile broadband. Will it be the 3G services being offered by the big GSM boys like Bharti Airtel, Vodafone or Idea? Or will they adopt evolution video data only (EVDO), the high speed data being offered by CDMA networks like MTS or Tata Teleservices? Or will they completely switch over to long-term evolution (LTE) technology — the 4G technology through which Mukesh Ambani wants to re-enter telecom."
