muse
Having some time to kill before meeting a friend for the evening, I stepped into a Reliance Webworld to peek at their cybercafe. Bought a 50 buck membership and used it to get online - and posted this. Great convenience, speed and ambience - clean, bright and airy (albeit a little noisy from the gamers) unlike typical cybercafes with half-broken computers.
They've done some interesting work around how they price and charge for their services and seem to have opened up the market to a whole new set of Internet/net gamers.
IMHO Reliance is going to be the single largest change agent with bringing the holy grail of "affordable computing" to India. And they'll make money on it. It's going to be interesting once they figure how they create offerings outside the cities... I know I wouldn't want to be competing with them!
