Re: Iphone

There is no known network that provides 3G in India.
Unlocking Iphone is as easy as applying a crack to some software.
Some of the people in this Forum , including me do own the iphone.
The Experience has been kind of mixed.
If you love surfing, having Safari browser and its features on iphone is enough to buy one.
However basic functionalities are not there.Search the forum you will find many posts.
Best Luck !

Re: Iphone

Why not rather wait for Voda and Airtel to release it ..... (I've heard Sep 08 in the tentative date)

There's no such thing as non-3G anymore. Just one model. And you can't get it here cause you have to sign a contract to AT&T while purchasing it. Sure you can unlock it, but then you also have to pay the $50-60/mo phone contract.

My suggestion: Wait till the end of august before you decide on anything.

Hmmm..$599 for 8 GB! But it is still locked to AT&T! So pretty pointless IMO!

Unlocking is not a big deal. Can't it be unlocked? If it isn't possible right now it will be in coming days.

Not yet. But they are gonna introduce a $600 (8GB) iPhone without a contract.

Well someone told me from US that it is available.

Thats true. Why I said its pointless is because you can get it for the same price in India, usable on Indian networks and have warranty on ur investment too :)

Yeah, unlocking is pretty much as simple as scratching your left knee without moving your right arm.

Oh well you might be right. But who knows how much the iPhone 3G model will cost here in India.

Then how much will the non 3G version of iPhone cost? I don't think they are going to sell it below 20K. Well it's just my guess. :)

Array bhaiyyyu. There are no two versions. Just one. The new 3G model replaces the older model.

My speculation: 22k + minimum 400/mo contract.

non-3G version is not going to be available in India (through official channels I mean)

You beat me by a minute.

My guess: 20k + minimum 700/month contract including 500 MB gprs every month

Ok. I guess I read here in some thread that the iPhone v1 will also be dumped here in India :confused:

Well then it will cost much higher than the US price.

Yeah, 400/month seems too less for the gadget of the year. :D

I said minimum 400/mo (that would be without any EDGE or anything, although it is highly unlikely that Apple will allow it to be sold without EDGE).
