The third generation of mobile internet services known as 3G
will hit India later this year. What is good to see is the sense shown by the Telecom ministry to hurry up with the setting up of the 3G infrastructure .The
last time a major revolution in the information sphere arose with the advent of
internet on mobile the government waited a long while to even consider the
prospect of allowing the net on mobiles.
Things have changed a lot since then. For one India has
become a major player on the world’s IT services sector. With the outsourcing
industry expected to grow by at least 200 billion dollars in the next few years
in India ;most of the work being done here cannot rely for long on broadband
services while the rest of the World operates on 3G.
