Lot of questions!

[gowtham]

1)I have decided to get myself a phone this new year. My maximum budget is 25-30k. My pain use would be browsing the net, so my main priorities are- screen and performance. I think the iphone would suit me nicely. any other viable alternatives pls?
2)Is calling regular phones from voip possible? what is the simplest way?
3)Suggest me a provider with EDGE services and unlimited net usage in india.

Thanks in advance!

get N95, install Truphone for VOIP.

 

[gowtham]

my concern is the screen size and the ipohne has the larget screen for a phone i believe?

 

[Pathik]

Ur options wd be iphone.
And n95 8gb,n82..
Also the e61i is great..
But the safari browser on the iphone pawns all else

 

[hailgautam]

I am using e61i and with it's qwerty kb and large screen it is THE machine for browsing. Airtel has the unlimited plans with edge. I have this rs. 500 p.m. plan in Hyderabad.

 

[gowtham]

[gowtham]

for voip there are many softwares for every wifi phone for gprs there are some like fring, there are other's also, now to connect to pstn with voip you need a pstn gateway, like you can use skype or other services like that.
if you want to use VoiP please let me know the phone and usage pattern, i will then suggest you some services.
