you dont have 3g yet on these carriers in india, and we may have a new iphone in june, does apple really have to suck it like this, are these carriers dumb, they want 600$ for a and outdated locked unit?

@Edie

TD-SCDMA is not CDMA, it's a Chinese homebrew 3G standard, and it is closer to UMTS/WCDMA than it is to CDMA2000. I read it somewhere that the standard allows some kind of WCDMA/TD-SCDMA hybrid network, but apparently China Mobile only has permission to use TD-SCDMA in their 3G network. This is a list of 3G standards the current cellular operators in China use:

China Mobile: TD-SCDMA/TD-HSDPA China Telecom: CDMA2000/EVDO China Unicom: WCDMA/HSDPA <-- current partner with apple

No one else worried that there doing a deal for the 3GS? Why not do a deal on iPhone 4 if its coming in A few months? Why take on the 3GS this late unless a version 4 isn't coming?

Just to clear the air....

1.)iphones have been in India since August 2007

Majority of cell phones in India sell without a carrier/contract ie.. BB _ iphone_Htc etc etc.... It just works out better and easier no unlock issues ... no contracts none of tht crap.. Pick what ever plans you like.

2.)Joe- dont bring up absurd issues here... no fu*k face terrorist has blown jak up wid an iphone.... maybe nokias.... ^^

3.)John i kinda agree with you that apple needs to step up its game in India there's massive hunger for them here.. but on the other hand there's no official istore of sort... instead there are distributors and premium resellers.(They do suck donkey di*k and desperately need to reach global standards) ( i dont wana stand next to some clown eating a samosa and reeking of bo telling me how great a mac is and which model to buy -.- ugh some one help us -.-

4.) My personal opinion is that Vodafone India should start importing or nationally buying micro sim cards to gear up for the ipad... I would recommend structuring the plans same way as Atnt has done. .

Many people on that China Mobile carrier. But still, just one "little" minor change to the iPhone just for the world's largest carrier. Let alone, I think it's a CDMA carrier. I highly disagree with the next CDMA apple iPhone, and for sure disagree about this possibility of SCDMA thing chip on a future iPhone. It'll mess up the traditional GSM iPhone relationship.
