Has anybody used a Mifi modem here? The ones currently provided by Vodafone,
Tata are very costly.
Is there anyway i can buy a cheap one from china, put in my sim and use it?
There are numbers of MiFi models are available around the globe but my friend, cheap? I do not think so.
My kind advise is to wait for Reliance Infotel. Your MiFi may not work with at that time. It will be useless.
Let infotel reveal their system, first. Who knows what kind of system they have opted? I heard LTE from them but no details has revealed yet.
You could try this
AT&T NRM-MIFI 2372 Portable 3G 802.11 b/g WiFi Wireless Router - Free Shipping - DealExtreme
Pretty decent price... Also
Huawei has a mifi device but it is pretty costly... Cost around $150 I think...
About above product, I think you have to unlock it and also it will be useless when our provider will offer speed beyond 7.2 Mbps. Yeah, I know it will take years when providers generously offer 21 Mbps.

I searched for MiFi a lot when 3g was introduced by BSNL with 6 month rental unlimited data but at that time, it was of 10k. I made decision not to buy and I was right because BSNL restricted speed up to 1 Mbps.
