One of the latest offerings among handsets of Tata Indicom is the Huawei C2900i .
Its a very feature rich low end phone which packs in many features of mid range phones too.
Like high speed internet on the phone or Pc connectivity for surfing internet on PC
.This phone has a in built modem which is capable of speeds of upto 153.6kbps upload or download under CDMA 1x network .Its
100 Rs costlier than the C2900 which is the same phone without internet modem.So for 100Rs more c2900i is worth it.This phone
uses opera mini internet browser for surfing the internet and you can surf any site on it.The sad part is you can not
download anything on this phone but while surfing on the PC there is no such limitation.

all the time even though the tower is 4KM away from my house

for reading even the smallest text as the brightness is also great.
