iPhone 3G on Airtel/Vodafone Pre-Booking

Hi ppl,

Airtel and Vodafone have already started to take pre-bookings for the iPhone 3G.

I did not find any plan details or price as such, but have just registered to see what happens. Mods, if this topic has already opened, pls merge cos I didn't find any in the search.

These are the links to follow.

Yes, you can. You haven't signed a contract or agreed to any terms and conditions. The pre-booking is just for them to get a handle on how much interest there is for the device.

iPhone 3G is also supposed to have better battery life, speakers and reception, among other things.

Yesterday, Times Of India carried a header ad of Vodafone anouncing pre booking of iPhone.

Fellow Friends were saying Steve Jobs has announced the price will increase from 180$. Is there anything true in the news ?

does the 2/3 contract mean we cannot change the provider. something like locked!
But we can unlock it, cant we ?

Imagine Nano on the roads and Iphone in pockets!
Wow!
Wonder how Reliance, TATA and others will compete against this surge!

Base prices have reduced, it was never for $180 in the first place. The base price of the iPhone is $199.

Contracts mean it will be locked, but yes, we can unlock it.

@Arunks: Not sure about that, I doubt that you will need a new SIM though.

Yes, unlock it.....But remember, you've signed a contract.....They'll still want you to pay the rentals....:D...So, whats the benefit of using another SIM?? You're going to still pay the rentals & other things for 2 years......

The price of the iPhone 3G 8GB is $199. It’s expected to retail for less than Rs. 10,000 in India.

Yes, it does.

But we can unlock it, cant we ?
Yeah, most probably, but there’s hardly any point now given that you have to sign up for a two-year contract before you leave the store with the phone. Why would you want to unlock it and lose access to features like Visual Voicemail when you’re going to have to pay the monthly rental every month for two years anyway!

Wonder how Reliance, TATA and others will compete against this surge!
They’re all screwed!

hey can I use iphone without taking new sim with it.. As I am using airtel postpaid already...So will airtel provide me iphone to use with my this postpaid..

Every iPhone 3G will come with a a new SIM already placed in the slot. When you buy the phone (at Apple, Airtel and Vodafone stores only), you’ll have the option to transfer your existing number to the new SIM (i.e. if you already were on Airtel or Vodafone) and have your plans changed to the ones that will be mandatory for iPhone users. You’ll retain your number.
