0 Vodafone Introduce R201 MiFi Device in India

Following the launch of its 3G service in India, Vodafone has now launched its first MiFi device. Manufactured by Huawei, the R201 connects to Vodafone's 3G network and allows up to 5 uses with Wi-Fi to connect to it and browser the Web.

The device works on GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS 900/2100/1900. It supports HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and HSUPA 5.76 Mbps. It supports Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and is DLNA certified. The device is slightly bigger than a credit card and weighs 90g. It has an OLED display which displays the network and battery status and a microSD card slot. The R201 has a 1400mAh rechargeable battery and can charge over the supplied charger or USB. The battery is rated to last around 4 hours. 

The R201 is priced at Rs. 5,500 and will come with Vodafone's 3G connection. They are yet to reveal the tariff plans for the 3G connection, so you might want to wait for some time before you decide to spring for it. Tata has a similar device called the Photon Wi-Fi but it's priced at Rs. 6,499.
