Airtel Broadband and Telephone Services (Airtel B&TS) has launched Wi-Fi service for its customers in South India at a monthly rental rate of Rs 99.
The offer will give Airtel broadband customers wireless access to broadband of upto 2 mbps speed, Airtel said in a statement.
Shamik Dass, COO – South, Airtel B&TS, said, “With the year 2007 being declared as the Year of Broadband and the increasing broadband penetration in the country, on-line life styles have become more prevalent and wireless access more pervasive.”
“Our Wi-Fi service at Rs 99 per month will promote affordable wireless access to a true broadband experience for a new generation that is seamlessly using Wi-Fi networks to exchange files and upload personalized content,” he added.
Why do they launch such schemes only in south Mumbai when they know other places too need options and might opt for it.
