As we have already seen with Vodafone doing it. Indian consumer is price sensitive and they want good things with less price….

However I am also not going to dunk my hard-earned cash with draconian locked down devices on which I need to jump over hoops or pay Apple to copy a music file! My personal inclinations are with Blackberry Bold since I am an email junkie. Unfortunately that is not yet available in India. Well I don’t know about OpenMoko and never mentioned it.

What a joke... It doesn't even have the capability to do EDGE, let alone any sort of 3G (WCDMA) services! Openmoko?

Airtel BTW is the largest privately held Mobile and Internet services provider in India and their services are quite good though a little pricey. They are the first to introduce 8 MBps home broadband in select places. It is not only Vodafone but unfortunately even Airtel which is doing the same thing.

Fortunately you're not the only country that seems to be involved in the circus. Vodafone NZ have been hilarious. Launch, introduce a set of plans that no one will buy, re-launch, introduce a new set of plans that are a step in the right direction but no one will buy. round and round we go! Very disappointing given the potential of the device. Heh. Fortunately you’re not the only country that seems to be involved in the circus. Vodafone NZ have been hilarious.

In fact I do not own a single Apple product and hopefully will never need one. Just felt that I had to comment given all the hype that service providers are trying to drum up in order to make a fast buck and push locked-down DRM polluted products. OpenMoko is fine but I am quite enthralled by the Blackberry. I am waiting to check out the Bold and Thunder models. Unfortunately the Bold is still not available in India. I do not care about it.
