This time around India plans to offer 3G licenses on time, to start the process on January 14th, 2010, thus removing all the doubts the process will be delayed once again.
The country’s Telecom Minister Andimuthu Raja said: “Allotment of spectrum to maintain the level playing field will be by August 2010,” adding that allotment to the four service providers will be simultaneous.
The auction is expected to generate at least $1.5 billion, with more to come from a separate WiMAX license auction that will start two weeks after the 3G license sale is completed. As always, we’ll keep you posted…

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
