There are “strong” 3G reception areas and there are “STRONG” 3G reception areas. Just because you may have 5 bars doesn’t essential u are in one of the strongest reception areas. You may very well have reception problems and it may or may not be a flaw in the iPhone 4 antenna design. It may even be a software issue. But it’s too soon to be dispelling myths just yet.
Thanks

Hi all,
Though am a bit late to this, the price of IPhone in India has made me write this. 31 K !!! what exactly is apple smoking??

What I am wondering is why no one is talking about Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic phone, which am sure will Kick ass of IPhone in India.I just hope those dumbasses at nokia get it here quickly enough bfor everyone turns to the Hype-Phone

Vodafone has finally made the prices official:

Rs. 31,000 for 8GB model
Rs. 36,100 for 16GB model

Perhaps the Nokia E90 communicator or the upcoming N96 is the right contender for comparing it with iPhone now

Yeah!
That’s quite a good pre-launch analysis of iPhone. It’s true that Majority of Indians go for low end models rather than high end models. But anyone who is looking for a good music, camera and go for high end models will definitely choose iPhone over Nokia or Sony Ericsson because of the style statement, hype and the richness factors attached to iPhone.

Though the sales of low and mid-end products of these majors will not affect by entry of iPhone, at high end it does get a huge competition.
