Planes or trains within India?

I'm just wondering what the most economical (money and time) way to travel around India would be? I know India has an incredibly comprehensive national railway (website is impossible). It seems that jet Airways has a visit India pass that allows unlimited travel within the country as well.

I'm going to visit some dear friends in Ahmedabad and was either considering using that place as a base and then visit Mumbai, Delhi, Agra and possible down south to Goa. I was also considering arriving in Mumbai and then continuing my journey to the above mentioned places and then ending up in Ahmedabad for the remaining days of my trip.

I'm trying to figure out logistics and was wondering if planes or trains or a combination of both might be the best way to go? I realize India is a large country with so much to see... perhaps I should scale back my plans. I've got between 14-20 days to play with here.
