I'm leaving this sunday for a 30 day holiday to India
but i've never been there before so i want to ask
how the reception for mobile phones are there?
i don't like to take my new one but i still have an old one here
these are the specifications:
General
2G Network GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900
Announced 2004, 3Q
Status Discontinued


would this be enough?

thx :)

I ALMOST moved there for my dad's job.

It's the world's largest democracy! Just a lil' fact for you to ponder, I'm subtle like that. :wink:

That's really good advice. When I went with my friends a couple years back I made the mistake of giving 100 rupees to the first person that asked right outside the airport. Within 3 mins I was swarmed. xD

So other then the tapping on car windows and the occasional little child following you around it's not as depressing as things on T.V makes seem. I had fun, I'm sure you will too. Take pictures!
