The iPhone I have been waiting for , Dreamz shattered ..

" Hello Gaurav,

Thank you for registering for your Apple iPhone 3G™ with us.

We are delighted to announce that the iPhone 3G will be available in India from August 22, 2008 It will be available in 8GB & 16GB models, priced at Rs 31,000 and Rs 36,100 respectively.

Be the first to get the iPhone " Yesterday Early in morning i received this mail from vodafone and what was next , my dreamz of buying the iphone shattered . At Rs. 31,000 for the 8GB version, and Rs. 36,100 for the 16GB version, it is more expensive than pretty much every single phone ever touted as an iPhone killer, with a spec-and-features-sheet a mile longer than the iPhone. While reading reviews of iphone from different websites i came to a conclusion that Vodafone and Airtel - these are stereotypical capitalist thugs who are openly blackmailing millions of Indians. Apple iPhone is an innovative phone but have to use its two important weapons to overshadows other mobiles in indian market , one is price dropping and other is software development which we have seen in past is very effectively used by Apple .
