Location is everything. Consider Reliance vs BSNL based on that.
The speed is not the same in all towers. Make sure the tower near your
area is upgraded to EVDO, otherwise what you get is EVDO 1x RTT which
caps out at 144K. I found an older list of towers here
http://chennai.bsnl.co.in/News/EVDO_BTS.htm , check with the BSNL office
before committing.

I am getting speeds of more that 2.5Mbps in Chennai.
How much they charge for data/plans? What about the coverage? Works well in
all towers? Is it available in all bsnl offices ?
I am yet make my purchase but based on recommendations by others
I've decided on BSNL.
The charges are Rs 3,600 for the hardware, Rs 500 activation charge,
Rs 650 monthly for unlimited data transfer.
If you visit the Mount Road BSNL office with ID proof, address proof,
1 photo, and fill up the application form, you can walk away with a
data card within 10 mins.
The network coverage is reported to be as good as with any other
network.
Will be getting one next week.
