The all new apple iphone 3G likely to be launched in India in september by Vodaphone and Airtel
Bharti Airtel and Vodafone have announced, in conjunction with Apple, that they will be bringing the iphone to India later this year. However, neither has specified the launch date or pricing of the 3G iPhone in India.
The Apple iPhone 3G
With fast 3G wireless technology, GPS mapping, support for enterprise features like Microsoft Exchange, and the new App Store, iPhone 3G puts even more features at your fingertips. And like the original iPhone, it combines three products in one — a revolutionary phone, a widescreen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device with rich HTML email and a desktop-class web browser. iPhone 3G. It redefines what a mobile phone can do — again.

Apple iphone - 3G speed worldwide
3G technology gives iPhone fast access to the Internet and email over cellular networks around the world. iPhone 3G also makes it possible to do more in more places: Surf the web, download email, get directions, and watch video — even while you’re on a call.
Apple iphone 3G - Maps with GPS
Find your location, get directions, and see traffic — all from your phone. Maps on iPhone 3G combines GPS, Wi-Fi, and cell tower location technology with the Multi-Touch interface to create the best mobile map application ever.
Apple iphone 3G - App Store
Tap into the App Store and you’ll find applications in every category, from games to business, education to entertainment, finance to health and fitness, productivity to social networking. These applications have been designed to take advantage of iPhone features such as Multi-Touch, the accelerometer, wireless, and GPS. And some are even free. You download them wirelessly and can start using them right away.
Apple iphone 3G - Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
What makes iPhone a great business phone? Simple. The same features that make it a revolutionary mobile device. With iPhone 2.0 software, iPhone does even more for your enterprise. It supports Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, delivering push email, calendar, and contacts. And it gives mobile users secure access to corporate resources with Cisco IPSec VPN and wireless network services with WPA2 Enterprise and 802.1X authentication.

About
the new iphone 3g is coming to usa on july 11 according to apple iphone official website
Plz tell me when it is going to launch in India???
the Apple iPhone. Its much-awaited and delayed India launch is expected with telecom operator Vodafone in the first week of September.
According to Apple retail sources, initially the 8 GB version of the much-hyped touchscreen device - which combines Wi-Fi capabilities with a powerful email client, TV feeds, online music store and map-based location guide — will be launched at a price ranging between Rs 27,200 and Rs 28,000.
Based on buyer response, the launch of the 16 GB version will be staggered to the middle of 2009.
Apple iphone Hands on review:
APPLE IPHONE LOOK AND FEEL
The iPhone undoubtedly looks lovely - from the front. That big glass touchscreen covers most of the face with the exception of the single main button.
Yes, it gets fingerprints, but it’s a touchscreen - so get over it.
Crucially the screen is bright enough that you don’t see any marks when you’re using the iPhone.
I found the back of the handset quite disappointing. It’s a sort of champagne coloured aluminium which has been given the look of brushed metal.
It felt a little cheap and certainly not as tactile as the rubberized finish on the HTC touch.
The iPhone is heavy enough that you feel this is a device that’s got some substance to it. At the same time, it’s lighter than some of the larger Windows Mobile smartphones.
APPLE IPHONE OPERATION
The iPhone may have been over-hyped in some respects, but the operation is every bit as good as promised.
Programmes open and close quickly and beautifully. Switching from portrait to landscape more in certain applications is flawless.
Most impressive is browsing music in iPod mode. Coverflow works better than on any PC I’ve seen.
Shuttle back and forward between artwork with your finger, the iPhone never lags behind There’s also nice little touches such as a fullscreen iris which opens to reveal the image when activating the camera.
APPLE IPHONE KEYBOARD
This is the first of my main criticisms. Blackberry, Microsoft devices and everyone else who uses physical keyboards on their machines can breathe a sigh of relief.
The iPhone uses a small on-screen keyboard. My indelicate thumbs hit the wrong buttons more often than the right ones.
The only way to really get it right is to point at each letter in turn with your index finger. How slow would that be?
There is some fairly sophisticated error correction, but it doesn’t always get things right.
I’m told that keyboard technique improves after a week-or-so of using the iPhone. It would have to.
APPLE IPHONE CAMERA
As mentioned before, the operation of the camera is as smooth and lovely as everything else on the iPhone.
However its specifications are not. Two megapixels seems badly underpowered these days.
That said Samsung’s Blackjack produces better pictures from a 1.6mp camera than most devices with double the resolution.
Also disappointing is the lack of video recording. Given Apple’s close working with Youtube, you’d think a video creation application would have been on the cards. Maybe that’s one for a software upgrade.
APPLE IPHONE EMAIL & WEB
Of all the applications, e-mail is the one that should make Microsoft’s Windows Mobile people hang their heads in shame.
It supports POP3, IMAP and Exchange servers. Navigating an e-mail is, again, done by touch. Picture attachments appear embedded on the page and can be zoomed using the iPhone “pinch”: dragging thumb and forefinger together on the screen zooms in. Doing the opposite zooms out.
The web browser is also a thing of great beauty. Full pages are rendered perfectly. Tapping and using the pinch zooms in and out. Landscape mode gives you plenty of screen space for viewing.
We were using the iPhone on a wi-fi connection where everything worked at a reasonable speed.
The real test will be using the iPhone on the slow 2.5G EDGE data network. One report claimed it took two minutes to load Yahoo.com. That, frankly is worse than useless. Roll on the HSDPA (4G) iPhone.
APPLE IPHONE OTHER APPLICATIONS
Other notable applications include YouTube. A customised interface brings up a shortlist of top videos, most popular etc. YouTube runs in landscape mode and looks very nice indeed thanks to the site converting much of its content to the high quality h.264 video standard.
Good luck trying this on a non-wi-fi connection, however.
Google maps does what Google Maps does. The iPhone version is a very slick port and works well with the touchscreen.
There is the facility to view Word and pdf files, but no editing and also no copy and pasting of text between applications, which is a weird decision.
APPLE IPHONE THE MOBILE PHONE
Sadly, I can’t comment on this as we weren’t in a position to make any calls.
However don’t expect to be doing any one press re-dialling. There are a number of “button” presses that need to be performed just to make a phone call - which is strange given the user interface simplicity.
There’s also no multimedia messaging option or voice dialling.
APPLE IPHONE CONCLUSION
Apple’s claim that the iPhone is five years ahead of any other mobile is nonsense, in terms of actual tech specifications.
In particular, the antiquated data system lets it down badly. However, as a user experience it is probably about 10 years ahead.
Using the iPhone makes you feel quite angry towards other mobile manufacturers. What have they been doing? Fobbing us of with such truly awful interfaces?
However, I am conscious that where we do benefit on other platforms is the wealth of third party applications. I wonder when we will see a DivX player - one of the most popular video standards - for iPhone. When Apple deigns to give us one, I guess.
If Apple could sort out the camera, data speed and keyboard the iPhone would still not be perfect, but it wouldn’t be far off.
i want that white iphone
white iphone looks cool man
Guys, was watching the Zbusiness news channel yesterday and there was news on the iPhone “As iPhone is to be launched on the 11th of July in 22 countries, Vodafone too might launch the iPhone 3g on 11th of July here in India. The price could be 16,000/- for 8gb and 22,000/- for 16gb.” hope it is true !

________________________________________
Friends…..those of you in India planning for iPhone… THINK TWICE BEFORE MAKING A DECISION… The short comings of iPhone are endless…
No video calling,
no AD2P on the Bluetooth,
CAN’T share ANY (mp3, images,videos….) files via bluetooth,
can’t use as a wireless modem, (you pay ridiculous data charges to activate internet on your phone, but cannot connect it to your PC and browse when you are at home)
no copy and paste,(cannot copy a part of a…. say…. email & send it….have to type it out yourself)
no 3.2 or 5 megapixel camera,(the 2MP camera it carries is worst camera i’ve ever seen….. photos look like they have come out of a VGA camera)
no video recording with camera,
no front camera,
no flash.
no JAVA support
No physical keyboard (BELIEVE me! this alone is a dealbreaker…touch keyboard as good as it looks…once you use it then only you come to know about the importance of having a hard keypad)
No 3G network yet in India..so why pay for expensive 3G phone if you cant use its 3G services … so, for India, iPhone 2.0 is no better than its first version
No removable battery. (You cannot change battery. Have to send it to apple outlet.. Come on now!!!!…This is not an iPod. Its a bloody phone. You cannot live without phone for 2-3 days)
No haptic feedback and
cannot send MMS,
can’t use as external storage device (16 GB of utter waste..next time you go to your friend’s house & find some interesting songs, movies, etc…sorry you cannot connect your ‘16 GB’ phone and share it!!!! Apple apparently has a solution.. ” BUY MUSIC & MOVIES FROM iTUNES STORE “….. Give me a break will you APPLE!!!)
no FM radio,
can’t use your mp3 files as ringtones,(This is heights man!!!)
cannot insert any other SIM card….
completely tied to iTunes… Connect to your friend’s iTunes & you risk erasing everything on your phone.
list goes on & on & on….
We Indians are used to these features. Most of our phones already have these features. & we cannot do with out them…. i mean can you imagine paying so much for a phone with which you cannot transfer files via bluetooth. what age is this …STONE AGE???
Some features may be activated by jailbreak.. But why the hell should you risk losing your warranty after paying so much.
And want to add third party softwares??.. YOU HAVE TO BUY THEM FROM iTUNES STORE ONLY!!! . (Shell out more money). Apple is a bloody control freak. Dont surrender your freedom to it.
Apple are trying to IMPOSE THEIR MODEL ON US riding on the hype iPhone has created in the US (yes it was a flop in Europe ..thats why Apple never talks about its sales in Europe).
Dont fall for the subsidized price of iPhone… CHECKOUT THE DATA PLAN ATTACHED TO ITS SIM ..they will recover the cost through ridiculous data plans. Bill might come to around Rs 2500/month
Let me clear one thing though.. iphone is the best looking phone (its touch interface is nothing like you have ever seen ), & best browsing experience out there no doubt …. (& others are fast catching up..check out the android demo at Google IO 2008)…. BUT AFTER A FEW DAYS IT ALL COMES DOWN TO FUNCTIONALITY…
Those of who buy it… You will be most happy for atmost a week… & then, MARK MY WORDS…YOU WILL START REGRETTING IT!!!
My advice…WAIT FOR HTC DREAM!! (powered by android). Still not convinced by then…by all means go for iPhone…
So friends lets spread this info to all our friends and help them in making a wise decision….. & those of you who have bought unlocked versions already please share your experiences with others
