Post Internet Connection

I will be travelling to India for three months. Wondering which mobile company(Airtel,Hutch,spice etc...) internet connection would be good during the travel to the northern India states Punjab Himachal and Ladakh. I basically want to use my notebook to check email at work

Thanks in Advance

AirTel.

I never went as far north as you are talking of going but AirTel was strong from Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, Varanasi and Chandigarh.

Hi Jualy

One of the better options is Reliance R Connect, checkout their website.
Though I am not sure that you'll get coverage in Ladakh.
Hope this helps.

Consider Reliance (CDMA) if you're talking about using the handset as the modem to connect to the internet.
