Payal,

As far as the chord is concerned, with Samsung handset only USB is available. 
With LG, USB and Serial both are available. I do not have any particular 
reason to choose one over the other. In Redhat USB is enabled by default, so 
I did not have to compile Kernel. Also the USB module is loaded 
automatically. At this point of time I am not in touch with other Linux 
distributions.

You may also be able to use Reliance Fixed Wireless Phones instead of Reliance 
Mobile, if mobility is not an issue. I have not had a chance to try out Fixed 
Wireless Phone but I do not see much difficulty with that since it is from 
LG. I am not aware of the financial aspects of this.

I have requested Reliance to send some of the new devices to update the device 
support in Linux.

I hope it helps,

- Prabhat Ranjan
