Whats my best option for wireless broadband in Kolkata. At the moment i'm paying rs 500 for airtel mobile office Unlimited so around that price or a bit more is acceptable.

Is wireless access faster then through my mobile edge? Any help in the right direction will be appreciated. :S

if you are near enough to any of the telephone exchange, then bsnl evdo might be a very good option. it costs 550 bucks a month unlimited plus 200 bucks a month usb modem rental

else either reliance wimax would be a option.
 
^ yes its around 15 - 16kBps and you can get these speeds in edge too.. btw you can try reliance gprs with edge for 303 bux a month.

that 150kbps means 15-18kbps I guess. and is this any better than browsing from mobile or not?

well, i dont know how stable edge connection is in kolkata, but out here in pune, it varies a lot. and evenings i simply dont get more than 5-8 kbps on my mobile connection.

so that way, with wimax you will be assured of stable speed. but lose portablity.
 
theres a 400kbps plan which I suppose means I will be getting 50kbps :P for rs 999 only. I'm gonna do some checkup on this.
