1. No warranty
2. Yes.
3. Warranty (hardware wise).
4. Go for 16GB if you have the extra cash. Looking back I think I should have considered the 16GB. 8GB is still mighty fine though.
5. iPhone FTW! Thank god aayush kept me away from the Touch. I almost got it back in Jan.

1. None as such. Except if you consider "lack of warranty" as a problem
2. Yes. And it is very easy via iTunes.
3. No warranty available on the hardware.
4. Obviously, if you have the moolah, go for the 16GB one.
5. iPhone anyday.

35k is the budget.
Some people say that u have to unlock everytime u update the firmware,is it right?
and will buying from chandigarh and using in delhi cause any probs?

 

[goobimama]

27k for 16GB. Unlocking and such is all bakwaas. It is all easy peasy.

Yes, it is, but it's very easy. No worries. We're here to help you out in case you face any issues.

LOL! No.

Buy the 8GB iPhone, by the way. The 16GB sucks. It's slow, crashes a lot and doesn't actually have 16GB of storage. The speakers are crappy, the screen flickers and the volume is very low. 8GB is much better.

You forgot the mention the ugly battery life and the problem with the home button's spring.

Can't hold my patience anymore! Need to rethink seriously!!

tuaw.com reports iphone India release in september(vodaphone 28000 RS 8 gb)

 

[goobimama]

Trust the macboys. Get your iphone now. Waiting isn't going to do you any good. Cause 3G is useless in India.

Even they have stated the source as Business Standard. And they're just BS.

 

[SunnyChahal]

16GB or 8GB iPhone???

 

[preshit.net]

16GB if you have the money in the truckloads.

 

[SunnyChahal]

Buy Ayush told that it has many problems like crashing etc.

 

[aryayush]

Sorry for the ruckus! I was just messin' around. I don't want to see anyone else with a 16GB iPhone.

But I guess I can't have my exclusivity forever, so go for it, I guess. I was kidding about the problems. It has none of those.
