3G is becoming a popular word in Telecom industry in India. With VOIP is on the verge of reforms, 3G is the next big market for India. BSNL, a large telecom operator wants to give private telecom operators like bharti, vodafone a run for its money by giving away 3 months of Video Calling FREE. Very amazing!
If you own one of the latest mobile handsets and have BSNL service then you can receive free 3g video calls. However the biggest catch is its only free to receive a video call and not to make it :-) The good old sneaky way of giving freebies in India.
No BSNL is hoping that more users use Video calling feature. Well, Its highly unlikely to become a standard very soon but will eventually be a part of everyday usage.
A good addition to the existing 3G service will be of course the ability to use a Video Conference Calls Service with 3 or more participants in the call.
I know many Indians are excited to use 3G to use Free VOIP services coz VOIP over 3G would
be lot faster than GPRS, however you must note that 3G is often costlier than GPRS and definately costlier than a better broadband option Wifi. The best way to use VOIP is actually through wifi. You can setup a Wifi at your home for making free voip calls when you are home.
VOIP on the other hand becoming a joke with SIP calls being charged in India since they also attract service taxes lol. I believe if India needs massive reforms in Telecom, they need get over the service tax era and let SIP / VOIP services roam free.
Are you a BSNL customer? will you use 3G? will you use 3G for VOIP?
