* Will I be able to coordinate a driver through the hotel concierge (m at the time of need or should I pre-arrange for days at a time?

* Will I be able to get an internet connection in my room at The Oberoi?

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. Are you sure that your BB will work in all three cities ? Make sure Cingular has roaming agreements with the BB carriers in each one.

2. If you are at the Oberoi in Mumbai, for example, there will be a fleet of cars that you can hire from at relatively short notice. No need for super advance booking.

3. The Oberois in the cities you are in should have hispeed - but check with the hotel first.
