Is there any Monitor in your home which is kept in the corner with no use of it and is also gathering some dust in there ??huh??Or rather
you are in a plan to buy a new PC for just basic works like preparing documents and mails ? Then you could just opt for AIRTEL Net Pc and save your money with it.
Bharti Airtel,has devised a new gadget which is a rather low cost PC.As its name suggests,it’s a cloud computing device.The device comes with a pre-installed Windows XP operating system .
Starting with it is very easy.You’ll have to just plug in the USB modem or the broadband Ethernet Cable into the Net PC and you are ready to surf the net through it too.
Airtel Net PC is a subscription based device so you also need to pay a monthly rent for using the software in addition to your broadband bill. To give you an example, the minimum plan costs somewhere around Rs 700 per month where Rs 200 is the software rent while you pay the rest for DSL broadband.
The most exciting feature of Net PC is that it gives 3Gb of data transfer but with a poor speed of only {256 Kb/s}.It gives 10 Gb of online storage space and a copy of Microsoft Office Standard that also includes Microsoft Outlook for your email needs. You can also transfer data out the Net PC box using any of the available USB ports.This system which gives you an advantage of sending/receiving of your files online.
The downside is that you can don’t have the privilege to install new software on the device so can’t use[*] Firefox or Google Chrome for browsing as XP only comes with IE. And I am not too sure if the Net PC is locked to Airtel or will it work with broadband services from other providers like Reliance or BSNL.
To know more about Net PC you can walk into any of the Airtel or NEXT stores in NCR Region (Gurgaon, Delhi or Noida) for a demo.This device weighs just 500 grams and is small enough to fit in your trouser pockets .
P.S. Though you can’t install new software, I guess it should still be possible to run software that don’t require installation like the Portable Google Browser .
Last but not the least Airtel Net PC comes with a price tag of RS 5000 (or $100)in India .
SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR???GO CHECK OUT THE demo for FREE!!!
