    I saw an ad for HSPDA PCMCIA cards on for 4-5 weeks now on Sunday Times :yes: , there shud be sm solution frm a ntwrk service!

    thats dialog they give that HSDPA/UMTS and EDGE PCMCIA card.
    but not sure they really give that 1.8M connection. but the card on HSPDA can go to that limitation.

    Its upload 384k and download 1.8M using UMTS and HSDPA

    I don't think they'll give the max speed connections. It's all about business :yes:

    I heard that it's gonna be way expensive that ADSL. One of my friends who's training at Dialog told me that the maximum theoretical speed is just over 10Mbps, but that's if only one customer is there in one cell area. :D :D :D

    i think listed price around 17k or something but i saw a leaflet and paper ad which will give it for low price like 10k or something when you go with it. i really cant remember the exact prices you can find the leaflet in PC house shops.

    its much more expensive than adsl,as i get to know its not unlimited internet, you pay for the data transfer. like EDGE or GPRS cards.

    but tariff for broadband on wimax not like that i think

    well you can give 10M for 10km distance if there is line of sight, after that it drops i think
